NO NEED TO COMMENT ON THE JOURNAL. I DON'T REALLY WANT ANY FEEDBACK. Just kind of saying stuff to let people know.

Had a long chat with one of my old caricature work buddies over skype about art and commissions and customers and I brought up some old conversations sooo

STARTING FROM THE TITLE.
Well, apart from the ones I already have to do. Sorry, I can't really handle taking commissions professionally.
I wanna take the 'professional' approach to this and just stop taking commissions or trades until I learn how to handle my time better.

I'm a slow worker and I slack off... A LOT. I like working on things for myself or gifts than paid things because it's a little too stressful. Though not all of that is an excuse because I've seen people do commissions when they are stressed but I can't really do it.

So yeah, just wanted to give a heads up. -scratches cheek- I wouldn't recommend myself as a go-to-artist because I am extremely unreliable with due dates and keeping people updated on stuff.
I've had some people disappointed with my timing and how long I take to return things so I just want to avoid any future disappointments to people!

Talked to my friend about this MONTHS AGO and they advised me that if I cannot take commission work as serious as I would take a regular job then I should just do stuff for myself and not commissions so. So I'm kind of just gonna go with that.

So I guess the only art people will get from me in the future would probably be gifts or stupid doodles.
