Hey guys~ Sorry about not really being as active on here! T.T I feel awful, but you know what? I have been leading a busy life! I have been losing weight, talking to friends I don't really get a chance to do so with as often as I would like, working my butt off at my job I have been at for nearly a year now... It has been busy!
Anyways.. the reason for this journal? I am kinda getting annoyed at how many of my submissions now a days are YCH or character raffles/auctions. Instead of wasting time on trying to sell one piece, wouldn't it be smarter to just do commissions? >.< Not only this... but the fact that these YCH from certain artists go WAY OVER my price limit... How to people have $500+ to spend on ONE freaken image?! I mean.. really? You could be spending that $500 on something for the house, or clothing for yourself, or even food... but instead you spend it on one piece of art you're never going to have a physical copy of? @.@
If I was ever to spend that much money on a piece of art.. I would say I wanted THE physical copy of it... along with somehow knowing that the artist spent real time on it... $500? That's like one 40 hour week for me... So the artist should be spending 20+ hours on my art if I am to pay that much money.
Sorry about this.. but I am just getting sick with all these raffles and YCH...
[bold]MY QUESTION:[/bold] If it bothers me so much, should I just unwatch all the artists whom are well over $100 in commission prices? Because I know I would never actually get a piece from them, even if I do love their art.
I understand that people may just be that good to be $500.. but again.. Comparing money to a paycheck.. the artist BETTER work 20+ hours on my piece before I am happy to know that I paid them well for their work. @.@
URGH.. Just don't read this.. please... I am getting frustrated at the lack of ACTUAL Commissions in my message box... as to all these YCH stuff that goes for well over $100.. Out of my league... @.@
Im sorry.. I'm done... I'll delete this journal in like a day... No rude comments please...

i mean... if the price gets that high, then the artist MUST create something really cool as a result instead of a piece that looks like a regular commission.
