Hello besties~!!! ♡ Long time no see! I just wanted to drop in and give some life updates!

First off, I made a Bluesky! I originally had one for both FFXIV and art but I decided to make a new one for art only! Feel free to follow me if you want~

I really want to try and get my spark back for art so I'm hoping this will help! I dunno how often I'll keep up with it but I'll do my best~ I'll see about cross-posting here again, too. ;w;

I'm going to be vulnerable with you guys: I truly feel like I've lost my ability to draw and all my progress went out the window so I got a lot of catching up to do. My sister and I lived in a toxic living situation for 2 years which completely undid all the progress I had made with my mental health and had made me too depressed and anxious to draw. It's been a hell of a time but I moved back home 3 years ago this April and have been working on healing. I just started therapy up again and it's been doing wonders for my soul. I can't wait to see how far I've come a year from now. I just gotta dip my toes into drawing frequently again no matter how intimidating it may seem and focus on my art and things that make me happy.

Lastly, if anyone would like to donate to my ko-fi, extra funds are much appreciated right now. I have been trying to find a new job as my workplace had budget cuts and reduced so many peoples hours so it's been rough trying to stay afloat. I have not had a paycheck since the end of Jan so it's been spreading me thin.

Under no obligation ofc, and please don't donate if you are unable to. Anything is cherished, even just the thought. <3 I hope you've all been well. Thanks for reading~
