So, some details regarding my current situation and why my updates have been so slow now that my current batch is near completion.

For the better part of 12 years I have been making commissions as my main source of income. It's been a good job and I've always been able to rely on people wanting to work with me for which I am eternally grateful. However some recent happenings in my life has made it very difficult to draw as frequently as I used to.

I recently fell chronically ill due to a surgery complication I had 14 years ago where the recovery period went poorly. I now have lifelong health complications that could result in the amputation of my right lower leg. It's been a lot to wrap my head around.

I need painkillers and a lot of rest to manage the constant pain, I'm chasing other options but the healthcare system has proven rather difficult to get into contact with since the pandemic. The current diagnosis seems to be severe damage to the cartilage in and above my heel which is causing a lot of nasty pain.

Due to this I've decided to change my gameplan and focus on recovery and a more stable job option, hence my previous journal mentioning a study I'll be working on.

I will still draw and I will still take on commissions, but I will be slower than people were used to before. My current batch of customers have been incredibly patient and understanding for which I am grateful, and I hope people will offer the same understanding in the future if they decide they want to hire my services as an artist.

I will post some updates if there's a change in the situation but for now, thank you for reading and take care.
