General
I will be providing refunds for a majority of my work list as soon as I am able. This is non negotiable.
To be very clear: Patreon will remain active as my only source of income, and my personal species projects will become creative priority as they are my pride and joy. This will allow me to breathe.
Life offline is hard enough on me that the added stress and responsibility of my online presence is breaking me. No matter how much I overwork myself the situation remains the same, and in order to avoid shattering I need to shake most of the burden I have placed upon myself out of necessity. I no longer enjoy art, I'm tired of pretending that I'm hanging in there when I'm drowning. The one thing that used to bring me joy simply weighs heavy as the expectations and feelings of others have long since come before my own. It's killing me.
I will always be poor, I will always suffer. Always have. But I used to at least have art. I need to reclaim that.
What does this mean?
I will be reaching out to users one by one over the next few weeks, asking for PayPal emails to provide refunds when mum's tax return comes in. If you have not been contacted by November please reach out, else you may have been overlooked unintentionally. The pieces I will be proceeding in finishing will remain on the queue. Refunds will take time to distribute, please have patience.

Your art is simply incredibly. I was just looking to check in with you to see how you were doing and where I was on your queue but knowing your burden, I just want to wish you the best of luck my friend.
I hope you can find the joy in it again, and find some peace to go with it <3
