Recovery Fund Follow-Up (Thank you!!) and General Update
8 years ago
First off-- a HUGE thank you to everyone who contributed to, helped spread the word about, hung out in the stream for, or even just expressed condolences in regards to the Art Supply Recovery Fund. With what everyone pitched in, I was able to fully replace the missing supplies, which is wonderful. I wrote a follow-up/thank you post here if you'd like to take a look.
As for a more general round of updates-- Whew, this year has been intense so far, and we're not even halfway through! Last year was my first year jumping into doing conventions, and I did maybe 6-8. They went well, and so I decided to do more of them to cast a wide net and figure out which ones were worth doing or not, and of course as a source of income to support my doing more personal work and get my artwork out there.
And for the most part they're still going well, but, uh... oh my gosh, you guys. I'm on the books for TWELVE cons this year and now that they're almost back to back instead of with a month or so between them, it's super exhausting. I enjoy doing them, but after this year, will definitely need to cut it back to 3-6 a year so that I actually have a chance to take care of myself and produce new work! So, that's why I've been behind with keeping on top of uploads to FA and such-- it's the only site I can't really post new work to from my phone without it being incredibly tedious, and I just haven't been on my PC much with all the driving to and from shows.
I'm making an effort to catch my gallery submissions back up, though, so hopefully I can get it back up to pace soon!
As for upcoming cons, remember that you can always check where I'm confirmed to be at by checking the panel on the right-hand side of my website, but as far as fur cons go, the last two I'm doing this year are BLFC and AC. Next year I will probably only be doing one fur con (I haven't decided which yet) so that I have more time to create new art, so if you're attending, grab some prints or the like while you can!
That's it for now-- I'll try and give another update prior to hitting the road for BLFC. Take care!

FA+

We're gonna have to drag you out to dinner with us at some point! Hope you like Asian food haha
I'm SUPER glad to hear you were able to replace everything. That is FANTASTIC.
I hope we run into each other at BLFC otherwise!
But lesson learned, I'm trying just to view this year as a calibration test and a way to get my work in front of people in person. Having done this many shows this year means that it will be easier to have some online sales next year, I hope.
I don't know you'd be at BLFC, it will be nice to see you! :}
