AS much as I would love to continue, apparently I can’t handle commissions so after I finish the ones I’m doing, I won’t be accepting any more. I’m pretty screwed after what I’ve put whippet through and I sincerely apologize.
=/
Please don’t hate me.
Quill, I don’t know what happened, but you do such beautiful work. Please don’t give up!

Quill you are a wonderful artist and I hope you start with commmissions as soon as you feel comfortable again. I would definatly make a second order!I see, I understand, but I still think you shouldn’t just give up Quill. At the very least maybe sell someone ebay or somthing until you are comfortable to do comissions again. We all love you.

Although for some reason I’m fine with painting commissions and of course sewing commissions…) Some people are just better when they work at their own pace, rather than having to work to a customer’s schedule. That’s how I am with drawing. I let a friend talk me into agreeing to draw her a commmission piece, and, well… guess she’s regretting talking me into it, because it’s been about six months and it’s still not done.
Yea, I’d never want to take drawing comissions. Sometimes I go through months where I just can’t seem to draw anything. Then sometimes I amaze myself, but I don’t even remember the last time that happened, LOL

^_^
When I finally get the commissions done that I have right now, I -might- start taking them again… depending on what kind of interest I get ><
Thanks to those of you waiting… your patience means a LOT to me.

Thank you!
I hope my extreme delay in commissions hasn’t completely annihilated my reputation =(
I don’t think so. There are quite a few new members now too who haven’t really seen your art, so I think you’ll be alright. I’ve been slow on getting on the commission bandwagon myself, thanks to family issues, but they went on hiatus last month, so I’m pretty caught up to do painting and fun stuffs now. It’s a good feeling 🙂

Tell me about it! I’m so happy I’m finally able to not waste people’s money ><;
Hope your family stuff is going okay now.
It is what it is. I just got stuck with the legal paperwork, because I’m the writer of the family 😕 No pressure at all. My brother is getting the help he needs now and doesn’t have to deal with the crap he had to, for a time at least. He won’t be home for 6-9 months (at least), so I’m getting a very nice breather and it is helping everyone!
I am not an artist, but I do create brochures and publications on the side. I have spent the last 3 months working on a brochure for a medical conference. Changes, confusion, etc…all for free. I can tell you…it is much easier when I am not on a time schedule. I was so frustrated by the time I finished…. and I still have letters to mail out, agendas to print, and 350+ CD’s of conference material to finish before September.
I sympathize with how you have been feeling. I am ready to quit now, but I offered to do it. Next time, I am gonna charge for my services…..they saved at least a $1000.00 by having me do all the work for free.
It is so easy to take on more than you can chew and not realize it. I am sure forum members realize that. If I was you, thoough, I would do what I wanted and what pleased me and then put it on ebay.
That way you aren’t pressured and you can do the art hat inspires you. I bet your artwork is better and brings you more happiness and even more profit when you do items that make you happy.
Look at Purplecat..and TF Sculptures and the many others. They are doing fantastic work and then letting people decide on ebay or here…what a piece is worth.
Good luck!!! Hope to see some of your pieces….
