WHO: absinthe stellary
WHERE: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/stellary/

EXPLAIN: Commissioned her, at the time her paypal account was closed. So we traded art for shirts. She is great to deal with right up untill she gets paid. Then the real fun begins. She has already stated many times that she does not care about artist beware as it paints an unfair picture of her. Well, I suggest to anyone reading this, dont fall for it. Find another artist!
Edit: I have since been put on her block list on FA, so looks like my refund or art will be quickly coming........
Edit: hmm, not sure what this giant space down here is about, I can not delete it......

I agree that if Stellary indeed had a death in the family, the best thing would have been for her to contact her customers and say, "I'm sorry, everyone, but because I'm not in a good creative space right now, I ask your understanding that your art will be delayed." And, of course, to not take on any more commissions in the mean time. However, there's also a certain onus on customers not to act like unfeeling jerks, too, which is how you come off in your note, and in your responses here.
As a customer commissioning art, I would be extremely leery of commissioning Stellary; as a writer, should you approach me for a work, I think I would refuse.
