Art Whore?
11 years ago
General
Heh. I guess I've totally become one. I'm always looking for people to commission and trying to think of things worth having drawn these days.
Having a regular income I suppose was all the difference it really took, I guess...but also I have grown to really like my fursona. I just want a lot of art of him the way I picture him, looking the way I want and doing the things I like. ^=^ If he's supposed to represent me in this community I love so much, I want him to do a too job of it.
Recently I changed my icon for the second time ever. That's not a big deal to most people, I imagine, but I used one icon--which I still use on Skype and a couple other things, and many of you may remember well--for six years or so on here. And I used that icon everywhere! It was more of a trademark and an identity of mine than my fursona: so much so that I wore a badge with that icon on it instead of my 'sona when I was at AC 2014. I guess things have changed a little since then, huh?
I will try to make it to both Anthrocon and Fur the 'More this coming year. This may sound random, but I plan to go to Califur as well. I'm hoping that from now on, of someone recognizes me at a con, it will most likely be by my fursona and not my icon. I keep meaning to post a recent photo as a profile id here as well, so there might be that, too. :3!
Anyway, back on the subject of me being an artwhore:
I currently have three artists whom I've paid that I'm waiting on art from, including a pinup each from
oselotti and 
jailbird who are both really truly awesome, and one other whom I don't think has an account here.
I'm a pretty patient beast, and good things come to those who wait, but I do get pretty excited about artwork. I love pretty pictures so much~ X3 I'm eager to see how things turn out with those. I have a couple other irons on the fire, but I only specifically mentioned those whom I've already sent payment to. ^^' There was one other person I commissioned and paid during Anthrocon...but I am thinking he won't ever finish my commission, sadly... u.=.u I'm not going to name names though. Never had a taste for all that drama stuff!
Anyway, my hearty 'gratulations to anyone who managed to claw through that wall of text. I'd like to give you all your choice of free ice cream and/or cookies, because you really deserve it!
Love you guys,
~Dessy <3!

That'd be really aweessoommmeee :DD
I'm saving for stuff, too, but the rest of my money is going almost exclusively to artwork for now. X3 I don't regret it at all, either. I love pretty much every artist I commission. Some of them are even close friends of mine!
Saving is hard, though. Right now I'm just taking a set amount out of each of my paychecks.
So do what makes you happy!
