I sure am :)

As for addressing the situation as a whole... I've noticed a big trend of mental unwellness as of late. Almost everyone I know sticks more to themselves, more secluded, less interactive. They (me included) have less money to spend on art, leading to less commissions. I've seen so many journals from artists who's noticed the sudden drop in not just commissions but interactions over all.

It seems it's just dark times right now. We have to ride them out.

Thank you for your supportive words! I really hope and wish we all could make it through these dark times ♥️ i will keep drawing because that's one of the very few things that makes me happy in my life...

You should always draw *for you.* Even if I'm aware that attention feels good sometimes. Draw for yourself and the stuff you want to do. It's what makes you happy. If someone else happens to enjoy what you draw as well, all the better ^_^

I'm still interested myself. I still very much enjoy seeing your art come on my feed whenever I log in.
That said I am in a pretty similar position as Val. Not mentally well, not as willing to engage with things, and not nearly enough money to commission regularly (if at all).

Right now we basically just have to ride it out and hope things improve soon enough. But in the meantime I'm still enjoying what I see here, and I hope you're able to continue with art still. ^.=.^

Thank you very much for your support! I'm glad you still enjoy my art! ^^ I will continue drawing , it's one of the few things I really enjoy to do. It just sometimes makes me anxious when I post and it seems like no one or a very few people interacts with it. I would like to make people happy with my drawings but sure I draw also for myself and my own joy. Although, if any commission happens or sold adoptable, it makes me even happier because I can make money from what I love and it makes me a little more financially independent ^^
