The fight with disinterest and thoughts on art.

Heya all!
Sorry for the lack of a journal post last week, but this time of year gets a bit MAD as I'm sure a bunch of you know!
Fact of the matter is a large part of the reason I wasn't on FA too much last week is that I've been fighting with a piece of art. I've had a non internet friend ask me to create a piece of clean, OC pony artwork for them. Well not exactly for them, but for a woman he's interested. He doesn't know anything about the show, but she's a collector. I'm actually a bit torn about it. I've met her too and she's quite nice, although we all had a bit too much to drink that night. After finding a bit more out about her and the level of geek she is my own personal interest has been raised.
And I say interest because clearly my friend here is trying to score brownie points with her using my art. It vaguely reminds me of those old shows/cartoons where one person would fake playing guitar at the bottom of a balcony to woo the person watching them. Except they can't play guitar and the person who can is hiding in the bushes.
Now I'm a good friend, or at least try to be, so I'll finish it up and pass it along, but make it very clear on the image where it comes from.
The downside about all this musing is that the art has taken FOREVER. Not just because of that, but also because I'm trying to hold myself up to a standard I have created for my works over the course of this year. Which means I have scrapped two older renditions before the one I am currently busy with.
Pokemon Sun and Moon haven't help either but they are fucking AWESOME and there are just SO many Pokemon I'd wouldn't mind being trapped in suits as, treat their butts or be dom'd by.
Either way once this pony pic is clear and done I have a ton of stuff art wise to do. The last bits of gift art I have to complete for a while along with some personal stuff. Additionally next year I really want to focus on some more "artsy" things like still life and landscapes so I can improve my backgrounds. Plus I love landscapes, espeically fantasy ones and I love the sense of wonder they capture. I want to try my hand and pushing those feelings from some of my work!
Of course there will still be plenty of kinky stuff too, but I'm trying to create a clean catalog to display at a local comic convention in 2018. So a year to prep and find out what to do!
Any way hope you all are having a great December so far!
