Thats understandable sometimes.
Me I'm just all for making money any way I can...depending on my art piece though, if its something that i am personal with i wont let people buy it.

I always undersell myself, so in that aspect I am not comfortable.

Understandable sometimes... -.- You do not know me... -.- Sometimes is not in there. It may not be acceptable to you to not sell things, but for me, I DO NOT SELL THINGS EVER...

But see for me... I do not take photos to sell... I take photos to take photos because I enjoy, it that is all.. I do not feel comfortable selling them because I am not taking them to sell. I am taking them for me.

I always price my things too low because i think my stuff is crap.

I take photos for myself, it's my artwork I try to commission.
But nobody still wants to buy.

I actually met someone last summer [weird saying that being 2014 now] and shes rather wealthy and now my friend but she bought a photo i took of her dog for $100 when i told her $30... i was like WAH?! NO! I CANT TAKE THIS.

I wish that was me.
I'm so poor. D;

Although, question.
Why not have your stuff sell for even amounts?

Oh-kay. Of what I have at hand… I drew a thing like so. My drawing style has improved since then, and I'm working on a new hair technique. It's not going well so far. |D My most recent drawings are very detailed sketches that are going to be SO MUCH FUN to trace over with black.

I love that! Its really cool.

You should totes install PS. xD
Not saying using MS Paint is bad. I made this with it:


I like your art style~!

@Ofie: I know grown up life so well.
That's why I have a job that I hate.
xD

I really should use Photoshop because it looks like a can of rainbows, but making myself dig it up and install it just won't happen.
I kept playing with that picture in Photoscape (free photo editing program) because it has so many colors.

this is ofie's marker doodles


Brb gottah put load of wash in the drier and then put another load of wash in the washer

@Amane: Try paint.net. It's kind of like PS, only free. I only use it to edit pictures, though. I don't like using it to draw. I use SAI for that.

@Ofie: What kind of markers do you use, what kind of paper?

And this is now a conversation that I'm lost in, so I'm going to go and watch Sherlock and play Bananagrams by myself. xD

Oh, enjoy it!
[I do wish you would stay, but SHERLOCK!]

I'm rewatching Series 2, as I'm totally caught up with 3.

But I really do feel lost in this conversation as I have nothing to contribute.

I need to purchase watercolor paper for my copic commissions.
Or else it turns out ugly like so:

nothing special

I'm not sure what other photos to share, as I'm not feeling up to sorting through the thousands of photos I have.

@Ofie: Using copic/artists' markers would be better. But as you said, you are tight on money, so you would have to save up for them.
Prismacolor artists' markers are cheaper than Copic brand. I haven't used Copic brand, but Prismacolor is a good brand.

@Nemo: I'm not forcing you to stay, lol!
You can go watch Sherlock, or find another thread that's active, lol.
This is my only active subscribed thread right now.
I love giving advice, even though my art is crappy.

I'm trying to find more photos, while listening to Sherlock. I've seen the episodes before, so I can go and watch it when something comes up. We'll see how long it takes for me to find a photo worth sharing.

*high pitched screaming*

Why the screams?
D:!!
