HIII! :iconbunnyloveplz:
I´m sorry but today will be kind of a journal spam, you don´t need to read all of course, but there has been a lot I wanted to say for such a long time
And as I´m home and sick, I thought I would use this time to get some thoughts out ♥


This is about COMMISSIONS and art in general.
Load this video and watch it while you read my words ahaha :iconiluplz:

Please spread this video so more artists can hear it! ;;; It is only 5 mins long :heart:


I know many people are upset with my commissions prices ahaha QAQ
But really, I´m already working at a minimum wage. However I also agree that I am expensive if you compare with the other artists on dA. Which I think is sad.
It is not that I´m expensive on purpouse. I´m selling my art what it is worth for my time.

Is one thing if I need emergency money, but when you do this for fun, then yes, it should not be for free ;;;
It is my time and experience. If someone is selling something that takes them an hour to do below 10 $, yep, it is waaay under priced.
*I´m pointing at you right there*:iconsawbplz:

I LOVE to buy commissions, and the more cheaper the merrier for the buyer, but really, all we do is to bring the artists downhill with this. Even if you just do commissions for fun, if you are too cheap, then everyone else will need to lower their price too or else they won´t get anything sold.

Anyways, the video explains way better than I do, so sorry for my small rant ahaha, no need for firey discussions ♥ Just putting my small opinion out here :iconnanakosobplz:
