I'm not doing so great right now, and the only thing I can see as the cause is expectations, and responsibility.
I'm tired, and bored, and spent a long time in crunch working every day to settle debts I owed, in the form of art and commissions, few of which were paid, and mostly done as friendly fun.
I was also medicated at the time, under the effects, really helped me focus and be productive, but I voluntarily got off those meds, because they prevented me from using weed.
Once I got the debts settled, I felt really good, and thought maybe I could take on new work, but I realised I was wrong.
Comms were fun to do at the start, but more and more people came to me, wanting me to draw things I was unfamiliar with, or uninterested in, but provided they weren't too much of a pain, I'd still draw them for the money, but even now, that's not enough.
Alongside all this, I really haven't done any art for myself, just whatever I felt like making, I miss that, with that, I can take my time, and not feel stressed about getting it done quickly.
So, comms are closed, despite me needing the money, now more than ever, and I'm going back to making art for myself for a while, at my own pace.
If you do wish to support me, which I'd very much so appreciate that, you can donate or subscribe to my KoFi: https://ko-fi.com/ammyduckfield
Please consider it, I have no other income source at this time and it would really help me out, even a single £1 from each of you, every month, would be enough I could start paying rent again to my parents and start improving my relationship with them.
If even 100 gave £1 a month, it would help so much.
With all that said, I'm gonna get to making the art I wanna see, and I hope when it comes time to share it, you all enjoy it.
