feeling bummed out again.

As the months continue to go by, the number of available artists I commission continue to dwindle. Without naming names...
-There was one artist I had decided to temporarily stop commissioning because of their gradually increasing prices. I was planning to commission one more quicksand picture from them before officially calling it quits, but as it turns out they want to focus on drawing pin-ups & other similar material for the foreseeable future, so as such, they're not accepting QS art anymore.
Hey, at least I didn't get blocked! Unlike a certain other artist I mentioned before. But still, quite a shame. I understand their reasons though.
-Meanwhile there is another artist that I myself have decided to stop commissioning for the foreseeable future as well—this artist has recently decided to switch over to an iPad for all their current & future artwork. Their current style isn't [/i]bad by all means, but it's such a HUGE departure compared to what their previous style used to look like, and honestly it's kind of a turn-off for me now. I'm genuinely surprised that they would be okay with such a drastic change.
As of me currently writing this out, there are 3 available artists that I can commission for now for the artwork I generally post on my profile. While I do really like them, I want to continue looking for other artists that I can also commission in the long run, and it continues to be difficult looking for an artist that can draw to the standards I'm looking for AND that is ok with this kind of artwork in general.
Depending on my circumstances, I might honestly just take a break from commissioning and from posting artwork in the future. We'll see how it goes.

Anyway I hope you can find someone you like and is available, it would be a shame to see you stop commissioning since the pieces you post are really well made :(
