Making Some Changes
4 years ago
Hello everyone. I've been doing A LOT of thinking about some things and I figured that I will just post this journal before I put it off any longer. As I said in a previous journal, I haven't been feeling all that great about how I am currently going about things here on FA so now, after thinking about what the changes will be, I think I am as ready as I possibly can be to let you know of what will be happening.
1. First, the easiest thing to say. I will most likely be posting less frequently within the months to come. There are multiple reasons for this. 1. After a good period of being productive, I am finding it taking longer to finish a picture and I feel that I'm beginning to get into one of those phases where it is difficult to get anything to look right (I don't know why this happens, but it does). And so, to keep me from stressing out about it, this is part of the reason I will be slowing things down, to allow myself breaks if need be. 2. My days might be getting busier. I am currently waiting on a job I applied for so if that goes well then I'll have that to devote time to. And even if it doesn't go through, I still think there will be other things that will be taking up my time so I'll need to limit time spent on art. 3. I just want to do other things. When I first joined FA, art was a hobby, but it has now become something of an unhealthy obsession so I think I need to limit time spent on art to get out of this mind set. I also have a few writing projects among other things that I want to work on and with all this time spent drawing that's been put on the backburner.
2. Since I'm on the topic of uploading, I'll move on to the next change. I'd be lying if I said I 100% wanted to do this but I feel like I need to. I'm going cut down on the sexualized stuff. I just don't feel comfortable doing it as it isn't something I, as a Christian, should be doing. So I'm sorry, but there will be a severe lack of stuff of the "lewd" nature in the future. It's hard to explain exactly what I will continue doing and what I will stop doing, but for now: I will no longer be doing ahegao stuff, its just too hard to separate the face from what the "implied act" is. Future pinups will no longer have lewd poses (sexualized spreading or emphasis on "certain body parts" It's hard to accurately describe what the exactly the line I'm drawing is so I guess future uploads will do the explaining.
3. Lastly, I have decided that I will be deleting some of the pictures in my gallery, particularly pictures that fit into the categories stated above. I didn't want to just spring this out of the blue so this will be happening at least in some capacity at the end of June.
Please understand that these changes are what I feel is best for me. If you have any questions then feel free to ask in the comments.
Thank you.
