Still about. :3 Somewhat. XD

Ok, so I just got back from a drive, because I had to get out of the house.

Needless to say, I am disheartened. This is the second time I've had a friend stumble across not outright art theft, but something rather close.

If you want to use my ideas, great, please ask me first. I'll more than likely say yes.

I also know the subject matter of said work could be random, except who it's by is no fluke.

I am not naming names.

I feel this as a coming trend that I'm going to have to continue to deal with. It just makes me sad, because I thought the person was better than that.

Eiko, my snowgryphon character, is very dear to me. http://jahariia.deviantart.com/art/.....IP-2-137387658
She is basically the memory of my twin sister. This character is my memorial to her. I don't care if you rip off my other works, please, leave Eiko alone. This is how I grieve. I put a lot of work into my artwork, and I do think it shows. I feel insulted when someone comes in behind me and tries to take away what I've worked so hard for. I know that with growing popularity, comes trouble. I'm ready to deal with that. Please, don't take this final memory of my sister from me. It's all I have. Most of you have no idea what it's like to wake up and not remember your own sister. It's been so long since she's been gone. I don't know what she sounds like, and I barely remember what she looked like. Let me tell you, it's hell. So please, I'm begging you, don't take this last thing that I have of her.

...

Yeah...

I admit it...

I MISS FA!

I'm so horrible that I can't even stick to what I thought was a good thing for me to do. D:


DAMN YOU FA!! *shakes fist*


*please don't mind the ramblingness...it's early..well for me.*

Ok, I've had a few days to think. Although I will no longer be uploading artwork to this site, I will still be offering commissions. I might eventually return to posting art once I find it comfortable to do so.

Commissions are currently open.

I'm not sure if I'm comitting "artist suicide" by contimplating shutting down my FA gallery here. I've just lost interest in FA, and though I'm as dirty as they come, I can't compete with crys of "draw porn" It's just not something I'm interested in drawing. I don't see a lot of non-porn here, and though I'm not offened in the least by it, I get tired of seeing the same things over and over again. Agreed, there is only so many ways to have sex, but furry porn has just lost interest for me. The front page is filled with nothing really more that some shitting dick-nipples, thrown in with some interspecies sex. Again, whatever floats your boat. If any of you know me well, you know I don't judge. I don't. It's cool that everyone has their own kink. This just isn't me anymore. Mostly I forget that I do have a gallery here, and in all truthfulness, I am getting more interest in my artwork in my offline life, and really don't want future commissioners/companies to get the wrong idea about where I post my artwork. FA, you've been good to me, and you do have a good site. I hope you continue to bring joy/happiness and all to continued artists here and future ones.

I will still be at:

Figured I'd make a second account for my "darker" arts. ^^

I'll be around soon, just been really exhausted as of late. D:

<3 you all!

I'm contemplating a few things in my absence. I feel another change, though I can't tell what it is. Expect a new style and new characters *which I mentioned in my last journal.* The only characters I won't be giving up are Mai and any character that has been created for me. I'm also not sure if I'll be drawing lions when I return. I will also be redesigning my gallery and a few other things.


~ <3

Ok, I promise I'll be a bit more active here. I just sometimes forget that I have an account. DA is my main site, and that kinda takes over. I usually wake to about 40+ inbox messages a day. D:

<3 <3

Eiko

Will be answering messages and all tomorrow! :3

Test!
