Moving to pillowfort, hope to see you there!
Posted 4 years agoI've been here a long while, but it's time for me to move to an art site that suits me better. I've met a lot of cool people here, but realistically, FA was never meant for someone like me, and that's fine! Thanks to you all who supported me regardless :3
I'm not going to delete my gallery or close my account or anything drastic like that; my gallery is a nice little archive, and there are still a few people that I follow here who use this as their main site that I want to keep up with. I won't be uploading any more new art, though.
If you don't like pillowfort, I still have a twitter* that I'm active on, too. I'll toss the link for that below. Thanks for being cool all these years! I hope to see you on other sites, too :3
*twitter sucks, moved to bluesky.

Black Friday commission sale!
Posted 5 years agoI'm just having a little sale, one commission slot open at 10% off! My commission info is here: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/38060834/
Comment here or send a note to claim!
Opening one sale commission tomorrow!
Posted 5 years ago I just wanted to give you peeps a heads up in case you're interested, I'm planning on opening one commission slot at 10% off, but it'll only be available for tomorrow.
any interest in regular adopts? what else should I make?
Posted 5 years ago I was wondering if you peeps would like me to make some more regular adopts, or what else you might be interested in, instead. I polled Twitter to see what they wanted, but I didn't think to ask here. mainly because I never get replies here lol. So, now I'm remedying that! If there's something you think I should offer aside from regular commissions and outfit adopts, then let me know, and I'll see if it's something I can do :3
opening commissions for September soon.
Posted 5 years ago I figured I'd post a bit of a heads up in case anyone was interested, I'll be opening commissions for September only soon. I've got to figure out a new price sheet, but I'll hopefully manage that before the end of the week. I've also got some outfit adopts that I'm working on, too!
thank you all for the faves! <3
Posted 5 years ago I really appreciate every single one more than I can express! I'm sorry that I can't continue to thank everyone individually for faves, but to put it bluntly, I just don't have the energy anymore. I'm sure that sounds silly, but it's true. Thank you all so much for showing that you enjoy my work, though! <3
not very active here anymore
Posted 5 years ago tl;dr- sorry guys. I know there's a few of you who still care about my art, so I'll still post occasionally, but overall, I'm just not really around here much anymore.
Fa has never been meant for the things that I like to draw, but for a long time it was the best I had to share my art. It was always clear to me that I didn't belong here, though. I'm not a furry, and they're not what I enjoy drawing. Nothing against you guys, of course; you're great, which is the only reason this was my base for so long. I'll still post the things I really like here, of course. It just feels like the community I had here is gone, and that's ok. Thank you all for helping me get this far.
If you want to see wips and all the rest of my art, you can find me on Twitter, where I'm a lot more active: https://mobile.twitter.com/BunnySapphire/media
other places to find me
Posted 6 years agojust wanted an updated journal of other places to find me, in case fa is down or whatever.

i think that's all for now!
commissions are closed now.
Posted 6 years agocommissions are now closed. i don't know how long they'll be closed for, but it will likely be a long time. thank you very much to all the people who have commissioned me over the years; it helped give me the confidence to continue with my art, and get as far as i've gotten. that confidence is gone now, but i'll keep drawing art for myself until it's eventually good enough for it to be worth buying. thank you as well to the people who watch and fave my art; it's nice to know that some people enjoy what i do, and motivates me to keep posting.
commissions closing sale
Posted 6 years ago I've recently come to realize that my art really isn't good enough to be offering commissions. After tomorrow, I'm going to be closing them until I get significantly better at art, and can charge a price that reflects the time and care I try to put into all of my pieces. This probably doesn't affect anyone reading this; I'll still be drawing, and posting what I draw, and probably making adopts on occasion. I just won't be taking commissions any more. But before I close them, I'm having a 50% off sale on anything under $30! Commissions and adoptables alike. Honestly, in just trying to make a few bucks to cover shipping on something I want before I stop taking commissions, but if i can't, then oh well. Links to commissions and adopts below!
Commission info: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/15184450/
Available adopts: http://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/.....ables-for-sale
Thanks for your time! I'll post a new journal when commissions are closed and the sale is over.
ten years here
Posted 6 years agoI've been on fa for ten years now, though it doesn't seem like it. It simultaneously feels like I've been on this site for much longer, and that it wasn't that long ago. Thank you all for sticking with me through it and watching my art improve! And sorry I've been bad about individually thanking people for faves and watches lately, I'll get to that soon, I premise. Hopefully we'll all still be chugging along in another ten years, and my art will have improved as much from my current state as it has so far.
digital commissions are open!
Posted 6 years ago I had thought I posted this a while ago but apparently not, whoops. I'm getting back into the swing of things digitally, and commissions are open again! I'll still be honoring my old prices ( found here ) until I make a new price sheet, but my gallery has better examples of my current art :3 If you'd like a commission, then just fill out the form in the description of the price guide, and comment or note me with it. I think that's all for now!
do you want to see my traditional art?
Posted 6 years ago I'm just curious. Now that I have access to digital art again, is there any real interest in seeing my traditional stuff still? I'm posting it over on twitter regardless, but I'm lazy and don't want to double post if people aren't interested in it. And no worries if you aren't interested in it; I'm well aware that my digital art is generally much better than my traditional stuff, and a lot of people don't like traditional stuff anyways.
That's all I think? here's my Twitter if you're interested in the doodles I've been up to lately. I do post random crap there too though, so far warning and all that jazz. Thanks for any feedback!
i have a laptop again!
Posted 7 years agoheya peeps, i know it's been forever. sorry about that, but losing my laptop made my mental health take a steep nose dive for the worse, and quite frankly, my phone wasn't enough to combat it.
so the good news is:
i have a laptop
i have my art files
i figured out how to get online on this laptop
i've been trying to actually write down my stories and stuff
also i've been messing around with a bunch of different traditional media
bad news is:
it's not an art laptop like my old one (not surprising since it was given to me)
i don't know where my old tablet is or if it even still works
can't afford to buy a new one
basically still no digital art
internet connection is through my phone, so no streaming, either.
i'll slowly be going through my notifications, apologies for the delays there and thank you for your patience. i've been working on some fanart for a game i'm obsessed with lately, and the sketch for that should be done soon, then i'll post a picture of it :3 i appreciate all of you that have stuck with me through this, and hope you'll continue to do so in the future. thank you!

inktober prompt lists?
Posted 7 years agoLooking for any and all inktober prompt lists, so I can pick out enough to make my own. Also any random prompts you guys have are good, too! I'll just use whatever inspires me. Not that mine are likely to be inked, but I really need to work on my traditional art, and hopefully this will provide a welcome stimulus. Thanks for any help!
sketch commissions open to pay bills
Posted 7 years agoI recently had to buy a new phone to replace the one I had, which was broken and only charging sporadically at best. While I'm happy with my new phone, I now don't have enough money to pay my electric bill this month.* Due to this, I've opened regular traditional sketch commissions. I had been hesitant to do that because traditional art takes me much longer to do than digital art, so ych pictures offered a faster turnaround time, but they just don't sell for me, so here we are. Info is here; if interested, feel free to comment here or there, or send a note instead. If I can just get one commission in the next couple of days then I'll be set. Thanks for your time and consideration!
*For those of you wondering "why would you do something so stupid?!?!!!" (I know you're out there, because that's my first reaction on seeing a journal like this): I needed to replace my phone when I did because in addition to not charging, my phone was frequently not ringing, and i had multiple calls for doctors appointments I was expecting. My new phone was the cheapest one my carrier had, but the "taxes and fees" almost doubled the price listed. Even with that, almost any other month I still would have been fine, but my electric bill this month is almost 50% higher than usual due to a guest my mother had over. I dropped my phone plan to the cheapest option to try and make ends meet, but it just wasn't enough. Apparently this month is "fuck Honee's wallet" month.

my laptop died.
Posted 7 years agoI dunno what happened, but my laptop won't turn on anymore, so commissions are closed indefinitely and there won't be any digital art either. I might post some pictures of bracelets that I've been making, or traditional art if I manage anything decent, though traditional obviously isn't my forte.
on my phone
Posted 7 years agoI did a dumb, and lost my phone's hotspot when I tried to make it better, so now my only internet access is though my phone. Replies and such will probably be slow because of this, as I usually do all of that stuff on my laptop, and switching over is weird. Just wanted to let people know.
what pictures should i turn into prints?
Posted 7 years agopretty straightforward question. what pictures that i've posted do you think would make good prints, either as-is, or if i redid/added to/finished them? (personal art only, no commissions.) or if you think the ones i've drawn so far are meh, are there any of my characters that you think i should draw specifically for this, or any subjects that you think would work well? just looking for some input here. i've got some ideas myself, but more ideas are always helpful :3
and input is appreciated!
what kind of art or crafts are you most likely to buy? poll.
Posted 7 years agoi got some bad news today, which made me realize i really need to step up my crafty stuff if i ever want to have a remotely decent life. to that end, i need to figure out what kinds of things to try and sell, but i really don't have a ton of money to waste on things that won't go anywhere. regular commissions clearly don't work for me, so i need to figure out other options.
here's a poll with some things that i know i can do at least decently well:
http://www.strawpoll.me/15088637
if there's something else you'd like that isn't listed, please let me know! i've dabbled in a large variety of arts and crafts, and it's quite possible that i know how to do something that isn't listed there, and just didn't think of it :3 all answers are greatly appreciated!
interest in snowy icons?
Posted 7 years ago i made animated snowy icons like this a few years ago, and i was showing them to someone today. would anyone be interested in something like those? they'd be redrawn of course (that one's 4 years old lol), but a similar idea. they'd be pretty cheap, though i'm not sure the actual prices until i make them and see how complex they are. so yeah, just curious if people would want them before i put time into redrawing them, since i have a whole pile of stuff i need to do already.
back from the art show
Posted 8 years ago well, technically it was a lot more than an art show, but that's the only part that's relevant here. it was my first 'real' art show (not counting the ones in grade school that almost everyone was in), even though it wasn't really an art show lol. but i had stuff for sale, and some of the smaller things sold, so hooray! apparently people bought six sets of greeting cards with art i made on them, and a few handmade bookmarks as well. (i wasn't handling the money personally and there were other people selling too, hence the 'apparently'). and the original painting of kirrily is nicely framed now, so i can hang it properly, which is nice. (before it was just hanging by a sock hanger clip thing.)
im probably going to crash for a day or two, and then i'll get to responding to everyone after that. sorry it's been a bit, i've just been pretty hectic over this thing. so i think that's all for now :3 thanks for being patient with me!
one day only steam sale commission!
Posted 8 years agoso, i just finished my big project, and now steam is having a halloween sale. i'm hoping to get a few of the games off my wish list, so i'm offering a single sale priced commission so that i can get them! how it works:
i'll take either a shaded half body or a flat colored 3/4 body commission, price for either will be $31. payment is due immediately, because the sale ends the morning of the 1st. this will be done some time in november, after my current commission queue. t.o.s. applies as always. no refund because it's for the sale, but i'll try to make sure that you have at least the sketch asap :3
i think that's all the info, but feel free to poke me with any questions etc.!
what should i put in an art show? (poll)
Posted 8 years agoso, early next month, some of my art is going to be in a show. the only problem is, so far there's only one piece i'm sure will be in it, and i can't decide which other pieces to finish/redo for it. so, yet another poll! whichever picture has the most votes by the time i finish the one i'm sure of i'll work on next, and then just do as many as possible in the next few days. (because they have to be printed, since they're digital, so i need to have them done by wednesday as far as i know.)
so here's the things:
the one i'm doing for sure is a digital version of this painting, because the person putting together the show specifically requested it.
the other ones i'm thinking of are:
~finishing this as cookie (because it'll be close to the holidays)
~redoing serelucine and giving her a background
~redoing this completely, with sandhya's new design
~shading angel and giving him a background
~finishing orchid
poll here: https://strawpoll.com/rbsa5d79
or if there's something not listed that you think i should try and finish, feel free to post that below :3 i listed the ones that i think are my best pieces, but other people have different opinions of course! thanks for any input, i appreciate it.
interest check: recipe comics? (poll) + commission changes?
Posted 8 years agoso, i've thought for a little while now that i'd probably enjoy having a cooking youtube channel, but that isn't feasible for multiple reasons. so i was wondering if people might like a recipe comic/manga thing, which gave you step-by-step directions on how to make the recipe. the cooks would probably be my 'sona, bunny; kamea; and cookie (who i still haven't drawn properly yet whoops). they'd cook various things that i like to make (i don't want to give people recipes i haven't tried!), and maybe if i made enough of them i'd collect them into a book and sell it? the individual recipes would still be available if i sold it, it would just be a way to get a physical copy and help me out a bit ^.^ and possibly have ych commissions of being served the final product (which wouldn't be in the book, if it ever happened).
so here's the poll for that, if you'd rather not comment:
https://strawpoll.com/9391383h
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and the other part is, i'm considering changing how my commissions work. aside from eventually moving to by-the-hour instead of a set price, i'm also thinking of making it so that my normal commissions are for humans/kemonomimis only, with a strong female preference. quite frankly, i'm not very good at drawing furries. i've tried a bunch of times to come up with a cute style for them, but it's been years and i still haven't managed it. i think that i'd be much more productive if i focused on drawing what i'm good at, and then had YCHs for furries or 'manly men'. i honestly don't think anyone would really care anyways, since my last regular commission was posted a year ago. but i figured i'd let people throw in their input if they wanted to before actually changing anything.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
lastly, sorry for the annoying journals lately. i'm just worried about a lot of things, and trying to figure out something that i can do to make a steady income so that i don't have to worry about being homeless again. (comments like 'get a real job' are not helpful and will be ignored- if that were possible, i would have done it already.)
