ArtCrawl

Alright, so I've been obscenely absent from this site recently. Not cause I want to be but because lately I've been busy with commissions. And during that time I realized something. That although I deeply appreciate every time I get a commission and I am incredibly grateful to the people who take a chance on me, I don't want to be doing commissions forever. Now don't get me wrong, I am still open for commissions. And anyone who is interested is more than welcome to send me an e-mail. But it's just I would like to be able to make some sort of a living drawing the things I love. Which is to be honest fan art, my own OCs, witches, that sort of stuff.

So of course, naturally, I've been playing with the idea of starting a Patreon account. I've got some ideas of what rewards I could offer. Like high res images, WIPs, sketches, the option to choose the month's fan art subject for the higher tiers, things like that. Pretty much just a lot of pieces, ones I wouldn't get to draw because my time goes to commissions.

Having explained where I'm at right now my question to any of you reading this is should I start a Patreon? Would any of you be interested? And be honest. You won't hurt my feelings in the slightest if you say it's not a good idea. Yay or nay? If yay, let me know what things you would like to see, what things I should offer. Unfortunately physical prints and videos will have to be excluded from the suggestions for now due to a lack of equipment. But maybe further down the line that will change.

Anyway, thank you to anyone who read this far. I really appreciate you taking the time to see what I had to say. I look forward to your feedback.  

To continue on with the witchsona/upcoming October thing I've got going on here I'm opening suggestions. This time for witchsonas. 

Here's how it works, just comment on this journal a character you would like to see a witchsona of.

Some stuff to know before suggesting:

I will only be taking fandom suggestions. No OCs.

It isn't limited to Disney characters. You can choose from any fandom you want; video games, movies, books, comics, anything. Although Disney is also not off the table.

You aren't restricted to choosing female characters. If you want to suggest a guy, go for it. 

Unlike previous suggestion times I won't be choosing at random. I'll be choosing by whichever suggestion inspires me the most. So feel free to put in some ideas for your witchsona. But also note that I reserve the right to diverge from the ideas given.

I will only be choosing one suggestion.

Please don't suggest any adult, suggestive or uncomfortable ideas.

Deadline: September 9 - September 16

And that's it. I look forward to all of your suggestions.

Hello everyone! And happy Halloween prep month! It's been approximately 2,000 years since I last posted a journal. And because of that I forgot how to start one. So I'll just jump into the subject. 

I'm doing a discount of 10% off on Witchsona commissions to celebrate the upcoming month of October.
This will run from September 1st- November 1st (Regardless of your timezone. Meaning if it's still November 1st where you are you are still eligible for the discount). Just place your request before the deadline and you'll get the discounted price on the commission total. Simple as that.
So if you've ever wanted to see yourself, a friend, a character from a fandom you love, or anyone else as a personalized witch now's your chance to get it for less.

Hope you guys are as excited for Halloween this year as I am.

Hello everyone! I'm back with another suggestion journal. It's been a bit of time since the last one, so I thought, why not. Plus I've got the time and a theme that I'd like to throw out.

Okay so, I've been really into the Shiro and Allura ship lately (girl, help me!) and I realized how much I wish there was more art of them together out there. I don't know if I have a ship obsession problem or not but this has happened before where I wish there was more art of my favorite ships. I scour the internet but they just can't hold me. 

Maybe this has happened to you, maybe not. But anyway, the theme is to suggest your most underappreciated ship, one that you feel there just isn't enough art of.

As usual I'll be choosing from the suggestions. Closing time is in three days, unless there are less than 10 suggestions, then I'll extend the time. Once the suggestions are closed I'll be picking only one suggestion to draw. I always wish I could pick more but I can't. Maybe in the future, but not right now. To throw your hat in the ring just comment on this journal. No notes. You don't have to be watching me to participate.

I hope you all will have fun and enjoy this round of suggestions. I look forward to seeing your guys' comments. Now ship awaaaay!!

Hello everyone, long time no see! Before I say what I've been up to lately let me just say that I am super sorry for the long absences and seriously overdue replies. You all are so sweet to comment and I feel like such a butt taking forever to get over here and reply and post things. I do plan to change that though and become more regular in posting not just on Deviantart but on the other sites I'm on as well. If you're interested in following me on those other sites as well here are the links. www.tumblr.com/blog/artcraawl

And now for the reasons I haven't been very active of late. I'm gonna try to keep it short cause I would hate to wallow in something negative. So recently my mom has gotten a serious disease. Although she isn't over it yet she has been getting better. And I'm very, very happy about that. About three weeks ago I was with her at the hospital for five days. And the week following that I spent most of my time helping to take care of her. Last week I had a cold. So all that to say this month has not been very conducive to being creative.

But despite everything that's been going on, the stress and all that, I'm happy. And this whole "art drought" has only made me want to draw more. I will be participating in Zutara week this year as much as I can. For anybody that's wondering I'm currently working on the theme "lilac". I don't know how many I'll be able to do, but hey, I'll be good even if I can only get this one done. 

I'm kind of thinking of opening suggestions again if anyone would be interested in that. If you are let me know.

Anyway, I hope you all are doing well. And I look forward to having something for you very soon. Thank you everyone for sticking around.
