Hello everyone,
I just wanted to thank you all for welcoming my return here and supporting my work with favourites, comments, commissions and by participating in my auctions. Through this support I am happy to say that I am now able to consider creating art my part time work! In particular, there has been great response to my fursona, the angora goat Merv. This fills me with joy as he represents the drive of creativity, through painting and fiber art. Preserving throug artblocks, inspiration fatigue and time restraints rests on a strng creative drive and it is nice to have a phsycial representation of this. In addition your comments and engagements with my gouache postcard series has really encouraged me to keep going and produce more. After finishing 7 more this week I am a few postcards away from the half-way mark. That includes over 50 different slice of life paintings from my personal experiences or places that have inspired me.
Overall, this is helping to support me while I study my final year in university. I have not shared this previously but I have many medical conditions that prevent me from traditional work and comes with a problems with participating in society. I have an assistance dog in training that greatly relieves my disability and chronic pain, your support is helping train him.
I intend to continue to be active here and create new YCHs frequently as well as finishing commissions and winners in a timely manner. I am also planning to do an art raffle once I reach 300 followers! I am always collecting new artists and sources of inspiration. If there are any places you have been or experiences/theming that has inspired you in the past, please share that information below.

Happy to sea a more traditional landscape artist still get appreciated by the local crowd who is admittedly more used to character pieces, but diversity is more than the spice of life -- it is the point of life itself!
And your Merv is absolutely gorgeous, a fleecy lordling of the brush!
My sympathies for the hardships that are hounding you, and I hope your newly trained animal companion will make them easier to bear and overcome.
Very glad to hear you've found a good venue for allowing people to appreciate and compensate your works! Do you include little flavor text cards with the originals of those landscapes pictures, similar to your immersive descriptions here on FA?
jkjk I love your art Ill always support you 💖💖
AND MERV IS A GOOD FURSONA AND A GOOD NAME TOO
