Starting Over
12 years ago
How much blood would you shed to stay alive?
So I decided on a few things I've been thinking over the past week or two:
1. Limited To No Commissions
I'm torn when I take on commissions, because I like drawing something I haven't done before, but at the same time, if its not my strong suit or if its not turning out how I like, I'll either get bored or burnt out with it.
2. "Me" Art
I almost never do art for just me anymore. I use to just draw or paint when the spark ignited, but lately I haven't been doing that. That was usually when I could churn out my BEST art. Plus, I have 2 comics in the works that I want to flesh out, story and art wise, so I have that to work on
3. No Personal Twitter Accounts
I'm tired of trying to talk to people who outright ignore me or try to play stupid and say they're not getting their replies or direct messages. I'm sick of trying to connect with people and being flat our ignored when I can clearly see they're replying back to someone(s) else. I still have my Tumblr accounts for my personal and adult stuff, since I did have an After Dark Twitter as well.
4. Artistic Twitter
I decided to make an art only Twitter for those who are interested in my art, furry and non furry, and for when I do decide to do art specials, most likely only cheap sketches and whatnot. New Twitter can be found https://twitter.com/LynxDarkwyndArt
5. More "Me" In General
I realized I was relapsing into my "All about everyone else" mentality. I'd care about everyone else over how I felt, put everyone else above my needs and wants, no matter how stretched out I was. 99% of the time I'd be the one to try an start a conversation with people. If I didn't, I'd never hear from anyone.
So in short; not taking on many commissions (not that people were lining up to commission me anyways), make more personal art, and don't focus on everyone else and give MYSELF some much needed attention.

This sounds like a good plan. Sometimes we neglect ourselves because we try so hard to take care of everyone else. You deserve some you time :3
