so I uh made a decision.. // IMPORTANT
10 years ago
After this month I won't be taking anymore commissions. For a long while.
-Why?
Well I need to stop stressing, too much going on to stress about already and I don't need more to worry about. I'm having a lot of medical issues right now and it effects me in a lot of ways. It won't stop with just a shot, or some meds or a good nights rest.
I need to have a surgery to diagnose it, get rid of it, and even when its gone.. there's a huge chance it could come back within two years, maybe less if I'm not lucky..
-What will you do then?
I'll be drawing on my free time, stuff for myself only. Maybe an arttrade here an there, but no commissions.
I'm also going to pick up photography again. I used to do it a lot and want to get back into doing so. I won't be stuck here in a chair drawing all the time (I know I can go draw outside but I can't on my laptop// to wet outside for traditional usually)
I'll be able to go out and see things, focus on walking and exercise, which'll help my medical problem too.
I just want to do things for myself now, because I'm tired of throwing my life and time away to accommodate others. I took so long to go to the doctor bc I didn't want to bother people about it or take their time & I might suffer more from doing so.. I need to make room for myself from now on.
I will always be nice and talk to you guys, post things on here (both photos and art) but will think more about myself and such. I hope you guys understand.

Art should be something you enjoy - not an obligation. :) Your health and happiness always come first!

Sucks that you're in that situation, but absolutely: do what you enjoy because you enjoy it, not because you're stressing about pleasing others.
