Hello all! ^^
Man, it's been a while since the last journal update, hasn't it...Well, better now than never I suppose ^^;
To start, I've finally been getting used to the new software. A couple features still agitate me lightly, but for the most part I've been warming myself up to it. Now, with that aside, I do have a couple things about my art that I want to address...namely, the slowed down posting of them. I've been recently at odds ends with my job, and with a promotion coupled with a new boss (Whom I honestly don't like), I've been at work longer than normal, now that my hours have been increased from an average of 40hrs a week to roughly 50-55hrs a week. Usually, by the time I get home, I'm pretty exhausted and don't do much else other than take a shower, feed my pet, and relax in bed with the odd message here and there with my friend.
HOWEVER, that being said, I've never skimped out of drawing every day, but I've been breaking up my artwork in small bursts, taking it one part at a time as to not overload myself with extra work by the time I'm home. I love doing art, and I don't plan on stopping, but I have notably slowed down a bit to get used to everything.
And one last thing...commissions...I've been considering them the past month or so whether or not I should start them up, the only issue...is confidence. I personally think my art is not good enough to be sold to people, which is why i've been very apprehensive about the idea. Though a couple friends have assured me they would be interested in them...I'm still on the fence. Who knows, maybe I'll plan to open them soon (Considering my bills have gone up). But till then, I'll still just think about the option.
Well, that's it for now. Thanks to everyone who's shown interest in my art over the past few months, I really appreciate all the favs and watches, and I hope to continue making things that you can enjoy ^^
