Every time I get a commission my mother gets a serious disease. It's like the Universe doesn't allow my mother in a world where I'm a pro artist.Am I just misinterpreting this? She always wanted me to go down the traditional path. Add emotional neglect and enabling my father's outbursts, and now I should pretend to care? Maybe this is the wrong board for this... Any thoughts on this?
>>8071060>I get a commission my mother gets a serious disease.I'm in the same messed-up situation. I get a commission, and sometimes I wish I could help my dad pay for things; he tells me it's not necessary, but I can't stand seeing him work himself to death. I'm just a loser who barely makes a dollars trying to help him. I understand your point about your mother, and I send my condolences for whatever illness you're going through, anon; keep working on your art, because good work does pay well (mostly for furry art...).
>>8071111>I'm in the same messed-up situationNo, we aren't. Your father chose to work himself to death. My mother got an illness.>I send my condolences for whatever illness you're going throughThanks, she had ovary cancer. She recovered from it last year, but I suspect her unchanged environment and her constant worrying brought it up again.>mostly for furry Fuck you, I'm not going to draw that shit.
>>8071119>Thanks, she had ovary cancer.To end the conversation, I recommend going to /adv/. I don't know if you'll get a quick response, but it's useful for asking for advice on personal problems, family, and complicated situations. You're welcome.And I'm not going to answer about my father, but you're right.
>>8071140Yeah, I posted on /adv/ soon after
