I usually never make these things publicly without first trying to tackle them on private, as I did:
I thought this was already sorted out yesterdayâŠ
But then today, this blog was brought to my attention today by multiple friends of mine, it was posted in a blog earlier today and I feel like Iâm in all my rights to defend myself and make myself clear
First of all, I want to make clear that I respect what peaches does I believe sheâs an incredibly talented artist which is why I was so excited to collab with her.
I did make the single mistake, of uploading the poster that she sketched and I did the coloring/shading/and lineart, for sale without asking her.Â
In the past all the artists Iâve collabed with Iâve asked for permission to sell the drawings and all of them were okay with it, I was wrong on appealing at the confidence we had as friends so thatâs why I proceed without her consent.Â
It is also why it hurt me so much today, when I read this blog, labeling me as a thief or her art and money:
When in reality the only money I made was off the video which was
The incredible amount of 17,32.
And that she mentioned how I was getting money for the posters on my page:
While I do believe that art is incredibly beautiful and wonderful itself, itsâ still a job for thousands of people around the world. All artists struggle to make their passion/art a living.Â
I truly admire those who can take it easy and draw art as a hobby and do it for free, because they probably live with their families not having to worry about rent, electricity, water, gas, food, etc⊠monthly for them and their families⊠I donât. I pay bills, rent, I have to buy food, I have to monetize my videos to not go homeless and support my family and my parents, because this IS my job. I live off of this, I LIVE off of my art.
The part where you also mentioned that I didnât even credit your art in my social media:
I did however offer you the 17,32 dollars, even round it up on 20, if you wanted. But you declined it, since youâre lucky enough to do this for free and had no intentions into making money with it.
And, peaches, to address the part of her post where I âbasically didnât respect you as an artistâ or tried to make her look âlessâ than me as an artist, I have a question for youâŠ
Do you think Iâd have asked you to make a collab with me, if I didnât admire you, your talent, and your artwork?.
