Jobs and why DA doesn't get my attention

Compared to how much I used to frequent DA, the amount of attention I give it now is barely any. It's not a new development by any means, I haven't been active on DA in a long while. Most of my stuff on DA is non-commission art, SFW stuff, practices and otherwise "personal" creations. 

I don't really give myself the chance to do personal stuff anymore. I didn't much in the past and it's only dwindled over the past few years. The reason for this is because I generally only draw or devote my time to something if I can... justify it in my budget. Drawing uses up my back's strength and time, two things I should be putting towards earning money so my husband and I aren't homeless and hungry. 

Most of my commissions, probably a good 98%, I would deem "not appropriate" for DeviantART. NSFW and all that. 

I'm happy I get to earn money by drawing, even if it constantly being adult subject matter isn't exactly where I wanted to be with my art. 

I intend on updating my DA a bit more... even if it's with just doodles and sketches I do inbetween commissions. I'd like to make a patreon sometime soon to possibly support me a little so that I can be more creative and draw SFW stuff since I know that I can't fight my "justifying art" problem from years of trying and failing miserably. I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared the patreon won't get enough attention but that's a worry for another day. I hope that for now the loyal people that still watch me and my art will appreciate the sketches and doodles I'll be trying to get up here.

Thank you for reading and I hope each of you have a good 2015 <:
