Very Important Announcement. Please Read!
7 years ago
Hey everyone. I have very important news. Please read this carefully!
I am going to stop offering commissions, and I am going to be closing down my patreon.
The reason behind this decision really comes down to a lot of different factors. In the past few months, I've had a very difficult time maintaining my drive to work, and it's impacted what I've produced.
I am also beginning school today. Which is the first time in 5 years. I need to succeed in these classes, or I will not be able to participate in a program in FL.
In 2 weeks, I will be moving to a different state. This will also put a big hindrance on my ability to work. The Donation battle is still going to help with rent, so all of those donations have really been appreciated.
I WILL be finishing everything owed. I've compiled a list below. If I owe you something and it's not listed, please let me know.
I will be stopping the monthly raffle. It falls under the category of "commissions owed" for me, and it's too much work. I tried to remedy this in my most recent raffle, but it's just not working. I will, however, be hosting a final "Hoorah" raffle for all of my current watchers.
I have not forgotten about Loyalty Points. Unfortunately, I haven't decided what I am going to do with them just yet. I'll keep them around, and let you all know when I've come to a decision. If you have any ideas yourself, please, let me know! I will most likely let you all use whatever loyalty points you have as extra entries for the raffle I'll be hosting.
Do let it be known that I will not be quitting artwork entirely. I'm simply going to be doing it at my own pace and on my own terms. Basically stepping back to being a casual artist. I may offer commissions once in a blue moon, but that'll be at my own pace, once again. So you will see stuff from me from time to time.
If you have any questions or concerns about, well, anything, let me know.
Thank you to you all for being amazing supporters. I'm sorry this came out of nowhere, but thank you so much.

Hello darkness my old friend. Also I am from Fl, what part are you going to?

I'll be heading to the keys. There's a research center there that I'll be training with.

I realized I was a bit misleading with how I said all that. I'm actually moving out to Idaho. FL won't be for another 8 months or so, assuming I do make it into the program for the 2019 year.

Thank you! It's already proving to be a bit tough, but that's mostly just in how poorly they've set up their system. Nothing I don't think I can't handle, though.

I say good on you. It's good to know where you limits are and when you need to stop something. I wish you the best in your classes and your pursuits for real life activities. That always has to come first, anyways. So kick those classes' butts!

returning to school is always a good things. Its a good idea to set aside distractions so you can focus.

The classes will only last for about 4 months or so, but if it all goes well, I'll be jumping right into a hands-on program in FL which will demand quite a bit of my time.

Sorry to see this but I hope lots of new opportunitys come of this and that you can get back to more art when your ready even if not full time ^.^ thoe you should keep a sketch pad with you and keep doing some light doodles here an there ^^ always nice to keep the feel for it incase you feel the urge to do a full piece every now and then :3

OP
I'm not really planning on stopping completely. I always push myself forward with artwork best when I do things for myself, anyways. I just know how demanding it gets with commissions and the likes, and I've already fallen behind with some things. I don't want to be doing that to everyone else as well. So figured, hey, let's put a pin in it all. Let myself catch up. Do what needs to be done with life. If it all works out, then I'll try to do it all again. Otherwise, well, I'll just be a part of the community in my own way.

Not meaning to sound rude or anything, but how long will this be for? Permanent? As in the whole school and job thing, etc.

Sorry. My notifications are a mess now so I missed this. Its indefinite until life desires it's a good time to do it again. But it probably won't ever be as heavy as I was doing it before.
