Reflecting

So, as you might have noticed I have been less than active for awhile, for a few reasons.
Firstly, "Teca's tasty treats" is on semi hiatus due to lot's of people being on vacation at work, giving me less time to play around with recepies.
As for the art side of things, well that is a bit more complicated and it is connected to one of the reasons I draw in the first place.
It didn't start as such but very early drawing became an escape for me, from alot of issues in my life. Whenever things got rough I would bury myself in my art, focusing on it to the point of ignoring anything else, at times to the extent of negative outcomes.
Not that this was always something I noticed myself at the time.
I have been thinking alot lately, due to my current situation and I've realised that drawing has become too much of escape. So much so that now when things are getting better and I begin to feel more comfortable with myself I have lost the reason for drawing, the need to escape.
I don't know if I'll be able to untangle this part of me, to disconnect drawing from escape. But unless I do this hiatus will likely be permanent.

Issa good thing to realise and I hope you are able to untangle it okies princess.
If you need a ear to listen to you, amma here.
Do what you need. I enjoyed both the art and the treats but I want you to do what you need to in life. I have had my own growing and expanding times and I would not have wanted anyone standing in the way because the liked the old me or something the old me gave them. You know you'll always have an ear or two open around here, and I'm not going to stop watching you or saying hi just because your art and or treats die down.
