Chitter chatter.: Please!What are you paying for? If it’s for an item that is physically... →
Please!
What are you paying for? If it’s for an item that is physically being shipped to you, then by all means continue!
But if it is for digital art, please reconsider!
This means that paypal is expecting me to ship a physical item to you!
And the more times that I receive money for goods, and do not ship through them, the more it counts against me.
Too many and paypal can elect to hold my funds for thirty days every time I receive them, until it reevaluates my account.
Which means while the customer has their deserved art, I do not technically have money yet.
So PLEASE always send payment for digital art via SERVICES and not GOODS!
(you can get a refund if need be just as easily by selecting services as you can goods!)
Reblogging because I’m considering opening commissions more this year and this is helpful information for commissioners and clients alike.
Reblogging for my commissioners.
oh wow, i didn’t know this. apologies to all the people i’ve commissioned and done this to!
Reblogging as a PSA to those who buy digital art, and to help out amateur artists online. :)

Things I feel shitty about #3432: Opening up for Commissions
I hate when people feel bad about taking commissions because more needy people are also taking commissions. You are creating an imaginary conflict because:
1. Your art isn’t the holy grail of commissioned art — people are going to want your art more and other people are going to want other peoples’ art more. You are (probably unintentionally) assuming that your art is superior and more desirable to potential clients.
2. Every artist has a different fanbase???? Even if you ARE a superior artist, commissioners aren’t a finite group of people who follow the exact same artists. Your fans will commission you and other artists’ fans will commission them.
3. You (probably) live in a capitalist society and artists should not be the only people who feel bad for getting paid to provide a skilled service. This is a very harmful mindset that is pretty popular nowadays and leads to a lot of abusive internships and so on. Do you see anyone quitting their jobs to help unemployed people get a break??
In other words…there’s enough artists and patrons to go around, people!!

How to block Sponsored Posts on your Dashboard
Tumblr has recently introduced Sponsored Posts. These posts can come from anyone, regardless of whether or not you follow them, and are primarily for advertising. If you want to block them, simply install Tumblr Savior and blacklist “sponsored_badge_icon” (without the quotes).

If you love animals or drawing then you should add this book to your collection. The Art of Animal Drawing is a crash course in not only animal anatomy, but usage of lines, page composition, animation and more! It covers over 20 different species, but the material itself may be incorporated into any type of figure drawing.
There’s an online version of the book HERE, or you can purchase it on Amazon.com

late night rant I guess
I’ve gotten a couple lately and I think this is something people still need to realize, even though I’ve seen the topic come up a couple times
self-deprecating compliments don’t feel good to anyone involved. it hurts you first and foremost, and it concerns/alienates the artist you are meaning to compliment.
And in that way, I can’t possibly consider them compliments, because compliments should be intended to feel good to at least someone.
I know this very well, because I gave quite a few out in my day, and later, I realized the error in my ways. people are complicated, majestic creatures, and it is hard to talk to them. u_u
I have had a lot of self-confidence issues in the past and I realize how hard it is to relate to someone you admire (heck, the fact that I’m getting these comments at all blows my teeny mind) but replay your comment back to yourself, and try and understand why that would not be comfortable.
things like
“I’ll never be as good, I should just give up”
“in comparison to this, my stuff is awful”
my darlings please don’t say these things about your work
there is a tendency in the creative field to be overly critical to the point of crippling self-doubt, and if you repeat this sort of thing enough to yourself, you can seriously trip up your progress as an artist
I know this, I’ve been through it, and I do not want you to do it too.
especially if I see these things crop up when I can say something about it, it seriously freaks me out to see you guys do this to yourselves.
help promote happy and healthy artists yo and respect your own growth and the growth of others 9v9!
