holiday crap and a bit of commission stuff?
11 years ago
SO I got hit with a slight wave of seasonal depression and stress the last few days at work, which sort of drew into yesterday, and now into today as well. Art kind of ground to a halt, but holy crap there is so much holiday stuff to get done for family things in the next couple of days, I will probably still be a bit scarce as far as being visibly active online with people and doing art things and the like.
I will still be working on things, though, but in little bursts here and there, and hopefully be able to get a few more things posted before the actual holiday hits. The little bursts are just so sporadic I have no idea when they'll be happening, and they aren't really long enough for me to stream or chat if I actually want to get some work done, too.
As another reminder, I think there are still a small handful of outstanding commissions that are not on my list , but I might be wrong. If I do owe you something and it's not on my to-do list, or you haven't brought it up to me recently on my to-do lists comments (see link below) then please let me know IN THAT JOURNAL.
Lastly, Commissions will be opening next weekend. I will only be opening for small commissions (sketches, flats, shaded without backgrounds) to start with, and I will only be taking 3 of those. However, I will also be setting up an art slave auction, that will start at 10 hours of streamed art time with an anything goes (yes, anything, lord help me) theme. Bids will start at $25. at $150 I will add another 5 hours (15 total), at $250 I will add another 10 hours (25 total), and at $325 I will add another 5 hours (30 total). I will not exceed a total of 30 streamed hours. Hours of work will include actual work. Pauses for discussion of pieces and personal breaks will stop the clock. if my pen leaves the tablet for more than 2 minutes, the clock will be paused appropriately. Stream times will be done in 2 to 5 hour chunks, but no more than 5 hours at a time (as I will still be working on other artwork) and will happen up to 3 days a week over time. You must be present for stream. If you can't make it to a scheduled stream it will be bumped to the next day as a default until we figure out a new time (so if the next day, same time is fine, we just leave it at that.) If I miss a stream without clearing it the day before, I will add 1 extra hour to your total hours, free (this can go over 30 if needed).
I work a basic 8 hour day monday to friday most weeks (occasionally pulling saturdays as well when it gets busy) but the times I work may fluctuate by a few hours (usually it's between 7-9 in the morning to 3-6 at night, give or take).
I'll post a better made up thing of this later in the week once all of it is figured out, but this is a little bit of a heads up on what to expect. I will also post up general times spent on different levels of pieces (sketches, flats, colored, BG stuff and so on).

Hopefully your seasonal stuff goes smoothly and without an explosion!
