I am just...ok, it is so FRUSTRATING when no one gives a shit about your art. I have been trying to sell my YCH preposes and regular commissions for almost 2 months, and what happens?
Nothing.
Nobody even cares.
If I say I need the money really badly (which I actually do! I owe someone money and I have 10 days left to pay her).
If I could just sell my preposes and maybe, just mAYBE one regular commission, it would help me loads.
But no, every time I upload a YCH reminder or post on a facebook furry group (I am in three groups, and I post on all three), I am utterly and completely ignored. No one cares to comment, or even like my stuff. I do not get any notes regarding commissions, and no one buys my art.
Is my art really that ugly? Is it really so horrible that it is nearly undesirable?
WHAT AM I DOING WRONG???

I don't think my art is ugly I worked for YEARS to improve and get to where I am now. I even took some years of art classes, and went to an art school for several months.
yet, I see all these other artists that are in the same skill level as I am, or even in a lower skill level, getting all this attention and commissions and praise for their art they just come in HORDES.
My commissions prices are what I thought my art was worth and it isn't even crazy expensive like I have seen other artists do!!!
And here I am, sitting with no one even batting an eyelash. I get favorites, but very few. I never get comments on my art either.

I don't understand why! Is it so bad that I feel like I should get just a little more attention?
Heck, I only expect at least 3 commissions per month but even that would be good enough for me, and most months I get nothing at all. I am willing to WORK for others to earn money myself while I seek out a job.
I do not beg for money or free art, I do not pester other artists, and I do not ever make drama.
I am relatively peaceful and I don't see how that would drive people away...

I cannot stream because my old computer cannot handle streaming and would only be super slow or just crash completely.
I have a laptop but I cannot make digital art with it because my tablet does not work on it.
otherwise I would be offering freebies on occasion.

I am just really angry that no one seems to care at all about my art, let alone commission me when I am in great need of extra cash. I usually would not do vent shit like this unless I am just going to explode...which I am. I am just so frustrated and disappointed and makes me just give up my art sometimes. Sorry if this is too much, but I just needed to vent about it and bring it to light.
