Hi guys. I hope everyone has had a fantastic holiday season! An out-of-character post again just to let you all know what's going down. Thank you so much for being so patient with me over the past two months, everyone. ππ½ I know the completion speed of my work has been a bit shoddy recently, and you guys have been sticking through, which I appreciate. I wouldn't say I like to talk much about my home life, but I will give a window into it to be more transparent. I don't want to appear lazy. I apologize for any delay in work. I have two kids that I share custody over with my parents, that belonged to my late sister, and I now live in a different city from them, with about 40 minutes between us. With it being two holidays back to back, I have been traveling and moving between my old home for the kids and around my partner's family, which is 2 hours away. If anyone has kids or inlaws, you may know they can eat up much time during holidays because the time means the world to them. :p My focus on the monthly sketches and projects has been cut short for this reason, so I appreciate everyone for giving me the time to work it out. Things will simmer down again soon, and I have a buttfuck of pics coming again. Even better is, today, I specifically requested to be allowed to sit down and work on drawings! I also want to answer a question somewhat related to this. Curious Cat recently shut down, I presume temporarily, but I did see one of the final questions that a user sent to me. It was,
Do you plan on doing holiday-themed art for this season?
Well, I was noted a similar question on FA too. To this person, I'm sorry for not replying sooner! I pray this answer reaches the user on CC since the question was sent anonymously. I prefer not to rush my replies to notes, so sometimes I wait until more available to write a response, which was my whole reason for joining CuriousCat! Well, to answer these questions, there's one reason I don't do holiday art. I do try, and I used to in the past. You can find some in my gallery on FA. The issue is that I make work too big, and it takes too long to complete, so I miss the deadline. Some work gets repurposed and uploaded as something else or held until next year. So, next year you guys will get more holiday-themed stuff! I have also begun practicing more multi-character compositions, which these caught at work sets have helped with, so as I improve at that, making the big pieces that I envision will be less challenging. I want to say thank you all again for everything. To my Twitter base, Patreon, FA, and my DA for sticking through with me. Thank you to the new patrons for joining the family. Happy Holidays all!

You know how I feel: If you donβt take time for yourself, I will HUNT YOU DOWN AND KICK YOU IN THE FUCKING SHIN I SWEAR TO GOD. Lol. In all seriousness though, please just be sure to take care of you and yours first and foremost! Iβm sure I speak for most of us when I say that we are just happy to support the creation of new and fun content as well as an artist, and person, that just seems genuinely wonderful. :D
