So I Survived Hurricane Maria, But...
8 years ago
Tip Jar! (do not pay for commissions this way, please!) I know I took a while to update here,sorry about that.
So good news, I'm alive and well.
Bad news... um, for those that don't know, I live in Puerto Rico. Before we made it through Irma just fine. MarĂa we probably would have as well were it not for the fact Irma was only a week apart and we were still recovering from that before Maria hit.
The rest you probably know by now: No power nearly anywhere on the island, extremely few reliable means to communicate with each other (let alone the world outside), lack of water runs rampant while some towns are so closed off that help can't get in and victims can't get out.
And it's only been, what, two weeks as if this writing?
So... yeah, my days of digital art are pretty much over until we recover, assuming we ever will. But I'm luckier than most, at least: I have water, friends and family have been an inmense help and I can still go online whenever I have a charge on my phone (which is not always, obviously, but I make due).
More info (and ways to help, should you care to) can be found over in my Twitter:

That's it for now, I guess. I'll see you when I see you. Take care out there, yo.

FA+

And the important thing is you made it through, take the time. and we will see you when ever you can come back.
Just take care of your self Kompy
Still areas where we can't reach them due to floods/debris and communication is still a huge issue to many, so while I and my neighbors are relatively ok, the rest of the island not so much :(
