Life... and some commission slots open
10 years ago
Hi everyone,
I know, again it's been some time since I updated. Life seems to be throwing me a lot of curve balls these days, so even though that doesn't really make up for it, I guess I have at least a bit of an excuse.
I recently received word from my family that my Dad has a fairly advanced stage of prostate cancer, so in all honesty I have been a little bit distracted from my work over the recent weeks. I had really just gotten back on track with my bills and work schedule and whatnot, so of course something else would come along to gum up the works.
Mainly I've gone through a bit of a hiccup, where it looked for a little while like I would have to drop stuff here in Cali and move back east to help out while my Dad went through surgery and radiation therapy. I was worried because it seems like their insurance is not great, so it seems like I was going to be trying to come up with some extra money each month to send back their way in addition to moving back home, so it caused a bit of a stir in my day-to-day. So sorry again if you are still waiting on an email response from me, as that sort of thing has not really been my priority over the last few weeks.
After some long conversations, it looks like at least until we learn more, I'm going to be staying here in Cali. It's a bit frustrating being so far away, but the honest truth of the matter is that it looks like even if I did go back home, I wouldn't really be able to do much except be closer. Partially I'm torn, because I would like to be closer, but that's a lot of scratch to come up with on the spot, especially since my daily work has been interrupted yet again.
I suppose that except for those sort of life things though, in general the artwork is going well, for which I am grateful. I haven't really been able to finish as many pieces as I normally would have since the last time I opened commissions, but I have been able to generally cut down my commission list by about 5 slots, which is pretty good for a couple months. So in short, I wanted to get more commissions finished before I opened more, but I've put it off too long already, and I need to open some more commissions to keep things afloat while I continue to try to get life in order.
So if you are interested, I now have commission slots open! Due to the nature of things yet again, I'm not going to open a set number, as I more need a certain amount in order to continue. But if you are interested, please send an email to tsaiwolfcommissions[at]gmail.com .
I have a bunch of art to upload again, so I will do that throughout the day while I am available to answer emails. Thanks again for sticking around and supporting a crazy artist while he keeps floundering in the waves of life. :/

For now I'd say do what you gotta do, keep making art and make sure to enjoy life. You are one of my favorite artists and always will be! :)
..Yet I am certain, like day and night, sun and rain.. life can not only send challenges ones way... Just keep on going and keep your heart up..
..I hope once I get my new refs you still have a slot or two open... ^.^ ..time will tell..
Untill then.. Woof!
..and harmony...
I really hope that karma does its job of balancing things out eventually. And in the meantime, if commissions are the only way we can give our support to you, then that is what I shall do.

The more aggressively your dad can fight this with his doctor, the better his chances of beating it. And if it has already spread into other parts of his body, you have my sincerest sympathies and condolences.
I'm probably going to end up doing some Movember commissions, just adding mustaches to characters or something this year just to raise more awareness. But I've got to think on it for a little while. For now I'm just grateful that things are looking good for my Dad at this point.
