Some life updates and such!

Hey there! I just wanna give an update so people know where I'm at in terms of art output.
So as some of you may have noticed, my schedule has been changing quite a bit, and also that I haven't opened for commissions since finishing my last batch. Two main reasons for that: 1) I've started a new part-time job on top of my other on-call job. I don't want to give too many details for security reasons but I'm pretty happy there and I'm doing what I love with some pretty cool people.
And 2) more interactions with some long-time IRL friends. It's the main reason why my Saturday streams have been so sporadic (on top of spring cleaning after a very rough winter here), it's pretty much the only day we all are "free" together. (additional note that we all live in different parts of the country so it's all online, we aren't meeting up IRL in a pandemic lol)
As for commissions and upcoming projects... I have some personal things in the pipeline that I want to draw, I think I can space those out to balance my work and social lives. Commissions on the other hand... I had initially planned to open for another set of commissions after this batch but then the job came up, on top of the usual burnout I receive even with small commission queues. Though I still feel obligated to provide for my most loyal and hardcore fans who regularly interact with my art and eagerly await my next opening.
A thought that has repeatedly crossed my mind this year is potentially a Patreon for those who wish to frequently get art from me. That would be the primary thing for the Patreon, just for frequent sketch art from me. I still don't want to paywall any art, and my Discord and Telegram channels would still be open to all for those who want first-hand notifications from me (as well as the occasional exclusive WIP and Early Access).
Again, this is just a thought, and there's a good chance I may never get around to doing this. But if demand is there, I may strongly consider it.
So there's where I'm at in life at the moment! Thank you all for sticking around even though my schedule and content are sort of all over the place right now.
