Requests

"Remember that book you wrote for me? Well l didn't like the intro, so l payed an editorial to re-do it all again. Oh is ok, l'll tell them you did it"

"You're so good on football, l wish l was this good.
-Well l've been training for long, would you like me to teach you?
Oh yes please! Can you play this game for me??"

And now translate it to drawing. I concider that drawing for others can be as difficult and demanding as any other discipline.

I think requests should be more valuable than anything else in here. That artist is making you artwork all out of free will! To make you smile and receive nothing l change.

Seems that there are some who request is just another artwork like the doodles made on a notebook during class. I am sorry, is not that way.

Dissapointments with requests have happened with me more than once, yet l kept giving them because l couldn't think there was more people that way.
I mean… this community is to spread art, isn't it? Basically, if you wanna turn it into a pure business, well is up to you, but that isn't the main idea of the web page.
To spread art and make people smile with your work.

These last situations though just made me loose all confidence on making requests or little presents for people, as much as l like to do it. I draw because l love to do it. But if said requests will not be much more than another scrap of paper in they desk or 'pile of free things l could stick out from artists'. Then l will just stop it.
I got told many times to do it, but never listened. Now l hit the bottom.

So no more requests, nor livestreamings with them. Requests, if ever given will be on very certain ocasions such as event prices or similar.

Please not more stories of "I can't draw" or "I wish l could do it like you" or "when l put it on paper is not the same"...
If l had let that effect me l wouldn't be here.

So, concluding, l will reduce the artwork for others into only commission, prices will be arranged and fixed completely and will add paypal prices as well.
Meh...... I really didn't want to do it, l hate the idea of turning my passion into a business. But if it's gonna be the only way the piece will be appreciated for real, then l'll do it.

Thank you so much for reading, hope it makes you think about your own artwork somehow.
