Changes to Mythic Tier

Hello everyone! :)
How are you all doing? I hope you've all been able to find some time this week to get creative and work on some art projects! I'm writing this as there will be some changes coming to my Mythic Tier which will be effective immediately.

This decision had been something weighing me down a lot because it's something I enjoyed creating for you and I know many of you enjoy these videos. Please read below for some of the reasons why this change is being implemented.

-----------

Most of you wouldn't know this but I am currently in the process of moving over to Sydney, Australia permanently for the foreseeable future! It's a little bit scary but also a very exciting time for me. There's not only more and bigger opportunities there compared to little New Zealand but it's also for lifestyle as well. I think this is the best time for me while I'm still young and have the energy to explore life (even though I stay home most of the time lol).

While the move to Australia is a big thing for me right now, over the past few months, I have been working a lot on client projects and freelance projects that I struggle to find time to do things for myself outside of my art. I'm squeezing in all the time I have to work on my personal projects which leaves me without much time to just.... relax! This plays a HUGE part on me mentally and I need to lessen my workload a bit in order to stay on top off everything.

While I do have my client/freelance projects and personal artworks most days, I also travel 6-7 times a year for conventions which usually takes A LOT out of me physically. And when I go, I usually stay for a few more days which could become a week trip. I get jet lag, routine imbalance and the usual stresses of worrying about conventions (print stick, merchandise, display, setting up, and greeting customers all day for 2-3 days) If you go to conventions then you know what I mean! lol. I think the hardest part about cons is the months of preparation in advance - booking flights, accomodation, getting prints sorted overseas, merchandise, quality checking, luggage bags etc haha. You get what I mean.

Most importantly, as an artist I would like to put more focus back into my personal growth as an artist. I want to become even better, I want to learn more and practise more without giving myself too much pressure which could prevent improvements! I think we all want that right? At the end of the day, I'm just one person, with weaknesses and limits just like everyone else and it's also a strength to be able to acknowledge these things.

I hope this makes sense and I hope you guys understand where I'm coming from! My apologies for having to make this change!

Thank you for reading and thank you so much for your support as always! <3
Much love
Phil

Sounds like an exciting time for you, good luck with the move! Maybe you could make this post public? The changes are all fine with me (there is so much material in here already!), but would be good to know before joining the tier.

Absolutely no problem: focus on your own growth as an artist is an essential part of any practice. And good luck on the move to Sydney.
