Some Thoughts
17 min read
Hey everyone, or anyone, whichever
I was looking through my account on here and I realized it's been almost 4 years since I posted a new journal entry. Granted I've still posted art on here off and on but I haven't really been *active* on this site in a good long while.
I have a weird relationship with this website, part of me wants to delete all of my stuff and move on. There are a lot of embarrassing cringe-worthy things on here for me personally that are hard to revisit. But at the same time this website it like a time capsule of a very transitional period for me, and sometimes it's nice to look back and see where I came from and how I got to where I am today. I want to get back to where I was then, when I had such a sudden strong drive to make things. I was pumping stuff out constantly, mostly fan art, but still. It was one of the first times I really grasped that I had the freedom to express myself and that I *could* express myself, which is a big deal for someone who spends so much of their life repressing every little thing.
So yeah, I don't know if any of y'all even pay attention to this page anymore, I guess this is more a checkpoint entry for myself to look back on later in life.

EDIT: Also, to preserve my embarrassing history, I'm leaving that huge-ass thread of icons I used to keep in my random image description (for some reason) here. It's at the point now where I find it to be a little too cluttered for my taste and an eyesore, but I like to look back on things so yeah. Bam:
This is the story of my life:

Commissions are now open!

Hey everyone,
-Arnumdrusk
------------------
Commissions: OPEN!
I'm going to give this commissions thing a shot, so if you're still interested in having me make a character for you just let me know 
I made a Tumblr post about my commissions, here's a copy paste of that:
I made a Tumblr post about my commissions, here's a copy paste of that:Commission Post! I’m hopping on to the commission train The rates may change in the future, I may add more options as well. I thought I’d test the waters with these two styles and see how it goes!
I offer two styles of art right now: Minimal and Line. A Basic minimal piece costs $5, a Color Blocking minimal piece costs $7, and a Lined piece costs $7 as well. Pretty easy to remember right? 
If you’re interested in having a piece made for you please leave me a message here or on my personal blog, or my Deviantart account (links at the bottom). I can get the work done for you within a week, probably less, and once I have it done I will send you a message with my paypal information and we can finish the transaction.
Hope that’s all clear! If you have any questions I’d be happy to answer them for you. If you’d like to see more examples of my work you can look through my Deviantart gallery

Art blog: arnumdrusk.tumblr.com
Personal blog: priddyproginoskes.tumblr.com

I'd put the images coupled with the post up here in my journal but I don't actually know how to do that 
You can see the specific post here: arnumdrusk.tumblr.com/post/733…
Thank you all, I hope you had a good holiday

Where di the summer go? I swear I just blinked and now school is starting in a week, can you believe it? I lose track of time so easily, it's scary o.O I hope you all have been enjoying your summer
To come right down to the point, I've been thinking about how inactive I've been on Deviantart the past couple of years, and I think it's time I made some changes; I've decided to stop taking requests. After a long run of taking people's requests I've come to feel pretty guilty about how I've delivered. More often than not I won't get to someone's request until months later, and that's really unfair to you guys. Sure I've justified it by saying I've been in school, or I've been dealing with a lot of personal stuff, but most of the time I'm honestly just making excuses. People who make artwork for other people as a living don't let life stand in the way of their work, they just do it, and I don't think I'm in a place where I can reliably take requests. I don't know if I ever was to be honest. I do enjoy making artwork for other people, but I haven't learned to properly account for the people I'm making things for. So...I'm sorry guys but as of now I am officially not taking any more requests 
If you're still waiting for me to finish one of your requests don't worry, I'm in the process of wrapping everything I have left up. I'm hoping to get it all out by next week (probably with the exception of the never-ending list of Disney princes and princesses from the person who doesn't seem to exist). After I post this Journal I'm going to go ahead and upload what requests I have completed. I imagine that I will open up requests again sometime in the future, possibly even commissions, so don't lose hope if you've been wanting me to make something for you! Not that I think anyone is, just throwing that out there 
So yeah, long story short I'm just not in a responsible place personally to justify taking on requests from you guys. I'm kind of in this confusing stage right now where my University really wants me to decide what my life path will be and I'm being forced to face those hard life questions about who you are and stuff. Those are the sort of questions I've always run away from at light speed, but it seems like it's finally beginning to catch up with me. I honestly don't even know how often I'll be posting art anymore, I'm kinda lost right now. But if things work out I should still at the very least post a sketch or two every once in awhile. Probably being overly bleak here and nothing will change, but oh well, I'm disappointed with myself :/
Anyway, thank you all for your support. All of the Watches and Favorites and Comments and Notes and everything are wonderful and I really appreciate them. Hopefully I can give back more to you all in the future.
DFTBA

Semester is over, Summer is here!
18 min read
Hi everyone!
Yes school is finally out, for me at least, I finally have some down time. I'm looking forward to being able to spend more time focusing on my own projects rather than my school projects, it was quite a busy semester for me this time around. I may or may not upload some of my school artwork in the near future, I tried putting it on my computer the other day but there was something wonky with my cable so it wouldn't read any of my data o.O But we'll see what happens
For those of you STILL waiting on requests from me, take a deep breath and rejoice for I am jumping back in the game with that. after I post this journal I'm going to go ahead and pick up where I left off and hopefully turn out at least one request a day, probably more. I want to try and keep that momentum up for as long as I can since I'm also looking for a job this summer, and I don't know how scheduling will effect my free time. But that's even if I find a job, so knowing this economy you're probably safe assuming I won't get bogged down with work duties
Anyway, hope you all are enjoying your break or are powering through the last chunk of classes! My requests are open as always, just let me know if there's something you'd like to see
Have a nice day!

And so the semester begins again
16 min read
Hi everyone,
This is just a quick update for y'all:
Yup, classes start up again for me today, I'm simultaneously looking forward to and dreading my classes. More on the looking forward side though, it'll be nice to be in a learning environment again. Just wanted to let you guys know, I still have every intention of keeping up with my requests though so don't worry. I've made a new year's resolution to make/do something art related every day and so far I've been sticking to it, so as long as I'm trying tfor that I should still be able to take and complete requests
Have a nice day!
