Thank you for patience. Slava Ukraini

Hello everyone, I'll try to write this as shortly and unemotional as I can, though it's not easy!
Personal life has been rough for me in the past weeks/months, that's why I had to take all the comms in advance and such. I'm working hard on them now, but I feel super guilty over the Patreon rewards, trades and such I owe and I just wanted to address this one more time. I am SUPER sorry about that, and I promise to catch up on everything as soon as possible. I promise I remember about every and each of you and I can't express my gratitude for your trust and patience.
What's been happening behind the border completely destroyed me emotionally, I feel like I need to give you a bit of context to that for you to fully understand this, but I'm half Ukrainian and I've been raised by super patriotic grandparents. I can't say enough how important both of my countries are, I am way too emotional and passionate on this sometimes. So it's rough. Not rough from a Polish-person-fearing-for-his-life, no, from it's-my-brothers-who-are-killed perspective. Plus, God, like half of my friends are Russian freelancers, and their life is hell now. And we don't know when it ends. So I'm just that right now. Personification of worry.
I've decided to contact a few of my commissioners on that I need more time to finish their commissions, I just know I won't make it on time and it always sucks to admit it, especially since I was soooooo looking forward to finifhing these and finally returning to work on my rewards and everything. It seems that my "chill month" moves from March to April, I pretty much live off Patreon right now and I can't say enough how much I appreciate that support now. You literally let me survive these tougher times, thank you for this and thank you for your understanding. You're absolutely amazing.
Sorry to everyone on my waiting lists and such too. I honestly will return to you all as soon as possible.
I will return to posting art around Friday, or maybe Monday...hard to tell. It still feels wrong, so wrong. I feel weird looking at my art, all smiley and colorful. But then I also have like 40 arts to post now, damn...
I won't open any large commissions in March, that is for sure. I'll see about April when April comes.
On a positive side, I think our 14000 PLN/3500 USD raised for Ukrainian charities is more like 4000 USD right now, and dear God, I am so thankful to all of you. You're absolutely amazing.
We're planning to close orders for Beidak's print on March 6th, on 7th we're going to print it (as well as my Patreon prints for February and other stuff I owe), so I'm hoping we'll be able to pack a part of it in the same week too. Wish us lots of luck, that's over 200 orders (THANK YOU for that, for real!)
