Haven't been on here for a while, thought I would give you guys an update.
I finished all the gifts and contest picture I was working on and now I just have to wrap things up with the request from my aunt. After that I'll make a new pricing sheet and get started with my commissions.
I have plans this summer. I want to prove that I can make it as an artist! Now, I will probably do other stuff as well down the road but I really want to try this. I've always wondered if it was possible but I've been too busy with school and my part time job to draw much. I want to see if it's possible for me to make enough to support myself. I know a lot of other artists do. I'm probably not as skilled as successful artists but I am getting better. I think I've improved a lot since I first started here. If I can make $1000 a month, I would totally have reached my goal but If I can at least make $500 that would be great! ^^
I only have a part time job during the summer so I'll have a lot of time to focus on art. :3

To help with my experiment can anyone think up some ideas?
Here are the ones I have so far:
-pre-pose auctions
-base ref sheets
-regular commissions
-multiple character ych auction

I was thinking that I could start drawing more of a variety to bring in other commissioners as well. Like humans, pokemon, ferals. :3

I also need this money...
I really want to buy a new computer because my mac book is getting old and giving me a lot of problems. If I got a PC I could also use paint tool sai like all the other great artists I know. Seems a lot easier than just using photoshop. ; w ;
I was thinking a PC with a really large screen and powerful enough to handle art programs, streaming, and some gaming. Any of you computer experts have some recommendations?

PS: I'll try to get my DA up to date with my other art soon. sorry for slowness ^^
