I want to begin with a thank you, I wouldn't have have met so many cool people, it's been great. I am no longer accepting commissions or commission ideas. I have been deeply thinking about art and where I have gone with it and where it has lead me in the past few years in, I have progressed pretty well, not great, but well. I couldn't of done that without the support from you guys.

But, I have a lack in watchers to make art something sustainable on the few who do commission me, it's hard with the economy the way it is and it's understandable, not everyone can get something whenever, art was something I was trying to make more than just a hobby because I(still am) lacking an actual job. I know that I am not the fastest artist, ideas come and go, over the years it's been hard to capture that inspirational fire to keep going with doing art as some sort of trade. It's also very hard on me to come to you guys asking almost like begging for some sort of work, my journals barely get a few comments even when I had posted that I was looking for commission work.

Now don't get me wrong, I am not exactly complaining about how i am not getting commission work, the work I have gotten from some of you has help me out in tough times, but it's not enough to make any sort of living from. I find doing art just isn't worth it unless I have more backing. I tried to venture other ideas, but they didn't get much interest, my recent comic idea didn't really get much interest either from the ones that I speak to on almost a daily basis.

The support I need just isn't there, I questioned my work and compared to other artists trying to figure what it is that I gotta do to get more interest or watchers? Many things/thoughts crossed my mind till I was just.. trying too hard. My prices are lower than most artists and it shouldn't be that way either. I always tried keeping a low price for you guys. Art to me right now just isn't going to get me anywhere with my life.

In short from the above I am no longer doing commissions, I am going to make a list of what I owe people at the bottom of this journal, once I have completed everything that is listed, my FA account will just be a ghost gallery.
