I love your art and am definitely interested in buying prints when I'm more financially stable but, if I may ask, why do you sell your art when you get nothing from it?
people kept asking me about prints, that’s all. my idea was that those people who were interested in my prints would satisfy their cravings, i would get redbubble-style amount of money (i.e. very little), order a couple of cute prints of my own with my inprnt balance to clear it out, and that would be the end of my printing adventure. i just wasn’t expecting the whole thing to be so popular.
it was actually yesterday that i realized that i should probably stop uploading new prints because at this point, looking at my inprnt balance that i can’t withdraw and thinking about how this money could have helped me to not have to choose between rent and meds is incredibly depressing. i’m very happy to know that people enjoy my artwork enough to want it on their walls, and seeing everyone’s pictures of my prints has been a delight in and of itself, but unless something drastic happens and paypal becomes available to me again, continuing to update my print store is very much feeding one company with zero benefit to me as the artist. i will probably keep my current prints up, but new stuff will have to wait until better times.
