Life Updates: May 2020
Added 2020-05-22 15:21:37 +0000 UTCHello! I'll be doing two giveaways to celebrate reaching 5K followers on Instagram and 6K likes on my Facebook page. See my posts on IG and FB later today for details.
I'm almost done with current custom portrait commissions! I took on WAY too many late last year/early this year. I've only got four more to go, before it was about 30 individual portraits. A huge weight has been lifted. I really want to enjoy doing each piece, but having so much to do ultimately stresses me out and I dreaded painting them/drawing them until I singled one out at a time. Plus, I felt a constant guilt that I was taking too long even though every client has been kind and understanding. So! I'll be limiting the number of commissions I take monthly. I'm so close to being able to take on new commissions!
Something that will throw a wrench in my plans is that I have to move out of my current place. The owner is selling the house. I really didn't want to move until I was done with my degree in about a year. I'm currently looking for new rentals, but it's even harder with my precious baby boys (Atlas & Noodle). I get frustrated searching for things online already (like scholarships, gallery opportunities) so I really don't like this process. Thankfully I have someone to help me. I'm hopeful there will be good outcomes to this situation.
The Moving Sale on my Etsy turned out well! I have so much to be thankful for. I really love doing giveaways to give back to everyone who supports me. Also, I'm excited about June's mini print (for the crazy cats tier). I want to throw in something extra for y'all since June 1st is my birthday. Thank you for reading and enjoying my art.
Best,
Becca <3
