art isnt survival and i have to pause it
2 days ago
General
Working on improving
so i will be having to pause work on things in part or entirely as i work to get a job by taking workshop classes (thankfully free) but this and dealing with the fact my animations and work isnt drawing in enough revenue to be viable and i have too many bills and not enough capacity for them
anyways so i do intend to finish Bus Snax as a final sendoff (or at least as the last one for a while) as i have to prioritize job and fiscal capacity over art because if i dont i lose my living situation and potentially my sanity as my health is taking a down turn due to neglect on my part spawned from depression and .. an awareness of my .. ineptitudes ... i cant do anything right
everyone always seems to pass me by when i put commissions open and announce it on multiple servers to a less than 1% full reciprocation rate ... yes a fair few respond but when they hear my numbers which i based on known metrics and have set to be lower than that just to see if anyone would be interested in paying for my work ... flake out ...
far too many pass me by for other artists to pay them for comms ... and patreon and youtube and other sites are not pulling in revenue enough to offset living costs and i now need to focus on just surviving instead of ... thriving ..
anyways .. im sorry for not being good enough and maybe when i have a surplus of time and or money or both i can return to making art again in a more complete capacity (if i win the lottery or if people commission me enough or support on patreon i can get back to it sooner)
