Why I Was Gone

5 min read

Hello everyone,

  It has been a really long hiatus, way longer than I ever expected or wanted it to be really, but then again I didn't expect a lot of what happened this year.

  I mentioned a little bit on my previous update from months ago, and-things got much worse than I ever could have imagined. I lost a very-very close family member of mine, and it stopped my world completely for a long while. I'm still not 'better', and I doubt I will be for a long time.

  I had a lot of things I was working on but I stopped my art completely for awhile-I couldn't even focus enough to sketch. So all of what I was doing before was pushed aside until a few weeks ago.

  After awhile I found a job to get me out of the house, and try to think of something else; I was mentally tanking and needed to try and avert the path I was going on pretty fast. It lasted a few months until I could move on to something else. I am able to at least do some art now, but it will probably be a bit before the ball really gets rolling again. I have some things I want to post-and I want to be more active again. Iit could be good for my mental health, but even being on here is bringing an odd mixture of feelings since I shared a lot of what I did on here with said family member who is no longer here... I want to feel normal again, so this is part of those baby steps-as I did miss being here.

  I'm aware most people won't read this probably, but for those who did wonder where I went or were curious I wanted to post it. It felt right to do and is something I just wanted to have here.

  Anyways; I hope you all have a great day.

Also, thanks to everyone who remember I existed too!

Life Update

6 min read

Hello everyone~

I really don't enjoy having to make life updates all too much, but I felt I would go ahead and do one this time due to
how long I have been quiet on here.

I have no intentions of leaving or even quitting art, but life outside of the internet has caused a lot of set backs for me lately.

Starting around the holiday season things always slow down due to family stuff, but after that I had to focus down on getting a car and a license to go with it. That took up some time, as I have a fear of driving (and although it's better it's still there).

After that hurdle I had to begin job hunting, but that quickly ceased as a family member of mine has gotten a series of medical problems-ones I won't divulge here. I have just began job hunting again but am trying to figure out a situation of holding a job while being free for this family member while they are going through their medical struggles. This has
has happened over the span of a few months, and although I see the ending to this tunnel it left a long time of me
inactive on here despite my efforts of once before trying to get back from a hiatus.

I am still working on art, I have a few things being shuffled through, but there are times (days to maybe a week) where I just don't have the time nor will I be in the mind to sit down and work. Things are coming though, and I am hoping around June this will be over-maybe sooner if I am lucky. I don't have much hope for May though due to my family member's surgeries taking place in May (probably mid may, but we don't know yet).

I should add I still do check DA every so often I just don't have a lot of time to do much more than that. So doing features, posting forums, or even wips I just don't bother to attempt...maybe I can do polls. I dunno.

Anyways, I hope you all have a great day <3
Hopefully will be out of this rocky time soon~

^{-I may take this down after a few days, I'm not sure yet.}
