quick thang to say:
a year ago
General
apologies for the massive lack of art lately! between my day job, the heat, and all the wips in my backlog giving me indecision paralysis, i've just been extremely burnt out and exhausted these last few months (┬┬﹏┬┬)
good news is that i've made arrangements at work to switch to a four-day work week, starting around october! i still get to keep my benefits at 32hrs a week, and my financial/housing situation is such that losing out on that extra 8hrs of pay won't be a huge hit - and once i'm able to focus more on art and re-open commissions, i may even recoup more than i lose in the long run.
so yeah, i'll be bouncing back pretty soon if all goes well. here's hoping for another artsy october this year! (ノ*ФωФ)ノ

FA+

(If you don't mind me giving unsolicited advice, from one artist to another; it's enough if you're feeling better with the new work hours, don't focus too much on recouping your losses! It's way too easy to trap yourself in the spiral again.)
Good luck :^D
