I have mastered the art of procrastination

Hey everyone! This is just my little blog of random stuff besides my art. Keep calm and Stay fabulous! 💖 If you want to see my art, it's here: https://shmoops-draws-stuff.tumblr.com/

Important hot tip for literally anyone purchasing art

If an artist you rly like doesn’t have a public commission sheet or perhaps you have an odd but reasonable request your best friend will be “I will gladly compensate you for your time.” Literally the moment an artist sees that you’re actually going to pay them for whatever weird request you’ve got, they’re like a million percent more likely to respond positively to whatever your weird request is. For example: I love birds, and I was seeking out a nice state bird cross stitch pattern that wasn’t too complicated. I found one I liked on Etsy, but it was actually selling the finished product (a gorgeous quilt for about $2000) and not the charts, which was what I wanted. No problem! I messaged the seller and said “hi! I love your beautiful quilt, but I am actually interested in the cross stitch charts. Do you still have them? I would be more than happy to compensate you for the trouble.” I have no doubt that this lovely woman has been demanded for free labor countless times. It has happened to every quilter on planet earth. She told me that she would mail me HER ORIGINAL HANDWRITTEN CHARTS for about $30, since she drafted them herself and wasn’t planning on making another quilt. I gladly sent $50 her way and told her she could just scan them for me if that was easier for her. Artists are, by and large, lovely people who want to help you. Please, just promise them that you will fucking compensate them for their time and labor.

there really is nothing more charming or telling about humanity than the amount of time and effort we’ll put into something just to see how cool it will look when we make it fall down 

me: that’s a lot of….oh…OH

So this video is 40 seconds long. And it has 190,000 notes. Rounded up to 200K because I’m lazy. So if everyone who enjoyed it interacted with this post once, and they enjoyed all 40 seconds of the video(both of those are questionable, but bear with me), that’s 8,000,000 seconds of entertainment on this site alone. 133,333 minutes. 2,222 hours. Yes, it was a lot of work for a few seconds of chaotic pleasure. But that’s a lot of chaotic pleasure for a little bit of work.
