Done with another academy year + some updates
8 years ago
General
First, before speaking my mind on this year, an announcement:
I will finish commissions as fast as possibile. I will contact those in the queue soon, to check if they are still interested in the commission, so expect a note from me if you are one of those people.
About academy...
I'm finally done with another college year. I cannot say that I'm happy of how it went: first, I'm not satisfied with what I managed to produce. Everything has been rushed to the point where we had literally no time to finish everything (I managed to, but I had to sacrifice sleep and time with my loved ones in order to do that). The worst thing, is that I had to present my -ugly- work to Tony Tarantini, who was one of the examiners (Tony Tarantini is a very important animator and teacher, he worked on basically every tv series you watched as a kid).
Then, a few of our teachers occasionally disappeared when we needed them, even on the day of the final presentation.
I'm simply disappointed, because they expect a professional attitude from us, yet this rule doesn't apply to them.
So much work going to waste...
About my health...
Okay, who talked to me privately already knew that I had some health problems, to the point that certain days I could barely sit on the chair for the pain. Finally, after more than five years and a lot of money wasted, a doctor understood (accidentally) what's the problem.
Aaaand I don't know how to call it, because the name it's something really complicated that I can barely remember in my language, let alone in English.
Basically, I have an issue with my dorsal spine/shoulderblades that causes my nerves to be crushed by bones.
So, my severe pain in stomach, intestines, arms and utherus is nothing related to the parts themselves.
My condition is so bad, that at the moment I have one arm completely in inflammation, from the shoulder to the tips of the fingers (and I'm all tied up like a mummy, which really doesn't help in writing this journal lol).
I'm pretty relieved to finally know the reason of this absurd pain, but I also realized that to get it cured it's a long road of expensive treatments... I know I should rest and not work in the meanwhile, but HEY money don't grow on trees and my family cannot afford to help me with medic bills at the moment (just in case you're wondering: the price it's nothing as expensive as american healthcare, but here insurances are not a thing).
I will finish commissions as fast as possibile. I will contact those in the queue soon, to check if they are still interested in the commission, so expect a note from me if you are one of those people.

Oof, sounds like tough going right now. Here's wishing you a turn of fortune in health, can't do much but send good vibes your way but yeah, best wishes on that!
Well! You made me very very very happy with the wonderful pieces of art you did for me, so good vibes is the very least I can do. Here's wishing you the bluest skies :)
Thank you a lot
Hopefully things will turn better in the long run...
But seriously, great job finishing another year!! All those art deadlines and all that work, it's worth celebrating! <3
