Happy new year everypony! I hope 2021 will treat us more gently than last year, and that lockdowns could finally come to an end during this year. In all honesty cooking up between 4 walls for almost a year has done some damage for my mental health, and after seeing New Year's recaps from my friends and acquaintances (after seeing how much people have still socialized in crowds and traveled), I felt almost desperate and angry about people's disregards towards covid. I'm trying to not become too bitter (everyone will live their life as they want and it's out of my control) so I'm not gonna blabber much more about last year, to say it short for me the year was stressful and emotionally draining. However simultaneously I've been in a loving and affectionate relationship with the love of my life (and was fortunate enough to move in in with her), graduated from uni and started working as a freelancer (got to work in 3 projects for an animation studio and was able to work on commissions almost full time). So it wasn't all bad, but most of it kinda was. Anyway, 2021, please be awesome.

I've also decided to put my Patreon page on an undefined hiatus. I've simply had/have too much on my plate concerning my current freelancing in couple projects for a company from my field, and to top it with commissions, that I feel I'm simply not able to provide enough quality content which I'd want my patrons to receive. Maybe some day I'll relaunch my Patreon page, however when I don't know right now. I'll keep posting my work normally to all other sites though, so no worries I'm not disappearing anywhere. I'll post some of the stuff I've had on Patreon at some point, probably during this week.
The corporate projects I'm currently working in should come to an end during next week (unless something unexpected happens), and I'll continue commissions normally afterwards with passion. I don't feel I have the strength to open commissions for January at the moment, I'm sorry in advance if I cause disappointment with this announcement. However I'll most definitely be open on February again, and will post a notification for my next opening in advance ( :

I feel like this journal is a hot mess however I don't have too much extra time on my hands right now so I'll just leave it as it is, feel free to ask if something's confusing. Take care and I'll be back very soon with new art! 🧡
