Greetings, watchers old and new! Speaking of old, can you believe Jurassic Park came out 21 years ago?

I have a few announcements this year. First is that I'm currently working on the last of the Black Friday Buy-One-Get-One-Free commissions. My queue filled up to thirty people before I closed the sale off in a panic two days in, and I'm JUST NOW catching up. While I'm glad so many people wanted to buy my work, I can't offer such a sale again without some serious restrictions like a queue of, say, five people. I hope you all understand.

Second, comics. So far my experience foraying into comics has been mixed. I enjoy them, and I want to offer more, but color comics simply take too long to produce. I end up getting behind on my other commissions, and when I catch up on them the comics get delayed, and then nobody's happy and I'm exhausted to boot. I'm contemplating simpler, black and white comics without detailed backgrounds in order to speed the process up a bit.

Third. Requests. I don't take them, ever. It's not that I don't enjoy your enthusiasm to see more of my work, I appreciate it very much! But appreciation doesn't pay my rent, it doesn't feed my cat. Mind tricks don't work on me, only money. It's been six months since I made commission work my sole income! So far, so good, but I must repeat: I won't draw your request for free. I can't afford to.

As for the second thing I get bugged about, I'm not interested in roleplaying. Respect that or get blocked = your only options.

Hope your year is off to a good start too! Stay tuned for more art - I literally don't have anything else going on.
