Hey there everyone,

I am going to have more of an art hiatus then I originally planned. I am sorry guys, but I really can't afford to turn down opportunities. If you would like a refund, please note me as soon as possible. I am very much willing to give you your money back and pay for the paypal fee to send your money back. Cause I can understand not wanting to wait for a long time for a commission.

With that said, I will tell you about why I will need this Hiatus.

I got a call today from the Census. They are hiring for the next phase and I was chosen to be hired. I was told the location for my training and I start at the end of April. It is only a temp. position for 8 weeks more or less, but I did the math and I will have a nice amount in my bank account at the end of all this.

Essentially  portzebie, I am going to win the bet and then some, so start saving cookie :P.

The only problem is that, I will now have two commitments. One is for the Census, and the other his my super part time job. I will have to balance both while I work for those few weeks. So since I am already having a hard time finding free time now, it is going to be impossible from the end of April to the end of June.

The only time I will be taking off personally from everything is when  portzebie comes to visit me at the beginning of June. Thankfully the Census you can make your own schedule so I can take a few days off and not have to even think twice about it as well as I can take days off from my other job, if they even have work for me by then.

So will I start work on art on what little free time I have? Yes. Will I be able to promise that I can finish your commission before the end of April? No. I really can't do that because of how my super part time job is right now. Can you get a refund? Yes. If you paid me for a commission of any kind and you want a refund, please let me know. I already saved aside the money from my paycheck and I will pay you as soon as I can when I get the note. Please provide your username, what commission you bought, and your paypal address. I will look in my records to see how much I owe you. If I did some work on your commission and you want a refund, I will need to speak with you about what would be fair for both what effort I already spent to work on it as well as your long wait.

If you bought a $1 icon and I already have the sketch done, please just wait a little while longer. I will try to get at least those completed before the Census job starts but I can't promise anything. If I don't have a sketch for you yet and you paid me, then I will just give you the refund if you want it.

If you don't mind waiting a few months for your commission, thank you for your understanding. I really didn't expect things to turn out this way when I started the sale for the icons. I also didn't expect to be so busy when I got the other commissions that I have to do.

Sincerely,
Sasha DarkCloud
