Upload Hiccup
Posted 2 years agoSorry for the cut off in uploads! I've had a particularly bad RSI flare up this month that's slowed me down a lot. I'll be picking up uploads again a few at a time each day to not spam you guys too much!
Finally Updating!
Posted 2 years agoWow, big apologies to everybody here. I let my poor FA get all dusty and out of date, but I'll start fixing that right away.
Expect a good amount of uploads daily while I get my gallery up to date. Hope that's not too annoying in the meantime!

June Catch Up
Posted 3 years agoSorry for taking so long to update here! I'll be posting stuff from the past two weeks real quick.
Small Update
Posted 4 years agoGood lord I've been slow lately, sorry everybody. I was dealing with some stomach problems that thankfully seem to have run their course.
For everybody waiting on their commission, I'll be including a discount to make up for the delay. Thanks for understanding!

Commission List and Wait List
Posted 4 years agoWhew, I'm sorry for how long it took to get this all sorted. Due to the amount of requests, my only real option was to go with a first come, first serve basis.

Comms Full!
Posted 4 years agoHey guys. I got a way bigger response than I was anticipating, so the first 5 slots more or less got instantly vaporized. I'm still working through all the notes right now, but I'll get back to all of you in the next number of hours. Over the weekend, I'll post a final list of the 5 people who got the slots, along with a waitlist for next month.
So, even if you didn't get in this round quite in time, it won't be long before I can get to your request!

2nd Vaccine!
Posted 4 years agoSecond shot today! Art will be on hold for a few days. 💜
Vaccine!
Posted 4 years agoJust a heads up. I'm pleased to say I managed to get the first dose of the covid vaccine yesterday!
As big of a relief as it is, it does mean I feel pretty lousy right now. It should only last a few days, but art will slow down a bit in the meantime.
Thanks for understanding.💜

Art Dump!
Posted 5 years agoWith November behind us, It's time for me to shift everything back into gear. I've been neglecting my FA page, and I owe many apologies to all of you who were trying to get a hold of me while I was in a bad place. Tonight I'll be concentrating on getting everything uploaded onto here, along with getting back to all of you waiting on commission work. It's been a rough number of weeks, but it feels good to be a bit closer to normal again.
Thanks so much for your patience.🙇
Thanks so much for your patience.🙇
I'm back! Sorry about that.
Posted 5 years agoHey guys. I'd just like to apologize for my absence. A bunch of stuff ended up compounding together and putting me in a pretty bad place mentally. The election was stressful enough, but I needed to have some medical testing and appointments taken care of as well, which always get me anxious. To top it all off, my partner is currently suffering through a bad labrynthitis relapse.
Long story short, I've been kind of a wreck this month, and haven't been in the right place to draw. The anxiety was just too much. I'm starting to get back into it now, though, so now I have plenty to catch up on! The good news is that my latest tests are showing a marked improvement toward getting my thyroid hormone levels where they need to be.
I apologize for the lack of content and commission work. I promise to pick up the pace and make it up to you all! Thank you so much. 💜

Commissions Soon (For Real)
Posted 5 years agoHey everybody! I've been getting inquiries about commissions increasingly often these days, so this should be good news for those of you interested!
It's been about 8 months since I took any commission work, but now that my current medication dosage has stabilized a bit, I'm in a good place where I can get my workflow going consistently again. This year has been unkind to many of us, but I'll be happy to finally be back to work. To not overwhelm myself, they're currently not open to the public, but I still wanted to give you guys a heads up ahead of time.
tl;dr: You can expect my commissions to finally be open later on this month!

Mass Report Spam - Updated
Posted 5 years agoAgain, never a dull moment!
There's report spam targeting NSFW artist/producers across multiple mainstream sites including Twitter, MEGA, and more. Even though I don't have a huge following, I'm unfortunately one of the ones affected. My Twitter was auto-flagged over the weekend and is currently search banned. This would just be a minor inconvenience normally, but Twitter support currently has indefinite delays due to Covid. That means only people who already follow me and happen to be watching their timeline will see any of my posts. I don't mind giving away that I was very close to opening commissions, so the timing for this couldn't be worse.
The tail end of this month has been nuts. Hope this didn't come off too ranty, but I just wanted to let you guys know here as well. This has all been very taxing, but I'll try my best to still keep the content coming.
EDIT: After some digging, I found out that the two posts targeted were of my recent Digby+Tom Nook drawing, alongside a dump of the belly edits in my scraps. Those have temporarily been removed from my Twitter, but are still available here, so no worries! Hopefully, progress is being made.

Apology Addendum!
Posted 5 years agoThank you guys so much for all of your thoughts earlier. I've removed all art that goes against my standards now that I'm informed.
I want to emphasize that this is 100% a personal decision. I made my thoughts known on Twitter as well, since at the end of the day I unintentionally went against my own policy and want to hold myself up to a consistent principle. If somebody asked me to draw an underage character and I refused, I don't want them to say, "But you drew Tails that one time and didn't explicitly label him 18+!!" or anything to that effect.
I don't draw underage subjects for NSFW content. I did unknowingly, so I've removed it. It's as simple as that! Spread the word if you so wish it.
Again, thank you to everybody for your understanding. There might be one or two drawings gone from my gallery, but there will be more and better ones to come! You are all awesome.💜

Posted 5 years agoI didn't catch covid! Small panic over. I'll be sure to keep being careful.
Please stay safe everybody!

Covid Quarantine
Posted 5 years agoNever a dull moment, guys. Just wanted to let everybody know I'm currently quarantining from potential covid exposure. My SO wasn't feeling well at work, and has been tested. Neither of us are high risk, but I'm worried about potentially exposing my elderly mother. I'll keep you guys posted.
An Apology
Posted 5 years agoHey everybody, this post will be a little different.
I found out today that I've been blocked more often over on Twitter the past few days. I didn't really think I'd drawn or posted anything questionable, but I realized that others might be getting the wrong idea about the Tails drawing I did as part of my current poll. I didn't really think of sonic characters as bad subjects to draw since I had drawn them previously, but now that I've actually done some reading I realize that they're pretty much all canonically underage, so I've been going against my own policy without meaning to.
I really can't apologize enough. I'm not the kind of artist willing to draw underage characters and I don't ever intend to be. On the off chance this message gets to anybody who blocked me on Twitter, I'm sorry for my mistake and will be more careful in the future.
I'll gladly remove the offending drawings from all my galleries if you guys think it would be the right thing to do. I didn't know that sonic porn was a contentious issue considering the sheer amount of it. I was never intending to post anything offensive or inappropriate, and am again very sorry if I made anybody uncomfortable. I just want to draw nice furry rears for you guys and don't ever mean offend.
Please leave your thoughts below if you have the time. Thank you so much for reading. 💜

Health Update!
Posted 5 years agoJust wanted to let you guys know my test results from last month came in, and everything is looking good! All of my imaging was negative, so I'm looking perfectly healthy on the inside. I still have progress to make on getting my hormone levels where they need to be, but that's just a matter of time. Not giving cancer a chance.
I can't really put in words how much of a relief it was after all the uncertainty. This whole past year for me was consumed by dealing with this illness and adapting to the side effects of the treatment. Its been difficult, but as I wrote in my last rambling post a few months back, I know things will improve. Now I even have medical confirmation of it!
I know I'm always thanking you guys, but I really mean it when I say how much your support means to me. Undergoing treatment has been a wild ride, and it feels incredible to be on the other side of it all. Things might still be crazy at large, but I'm more thankful than ever to have my health, and know that you like my thick animal people drawings.💜
A celebratory cat butt!

The Thick of Things
Posted 5 years agoHey everybody! I'm copying over my Patreon post over to here now that it's public. It's a little long, but when you have the time, please give this journal a read! It's a summary of what's been weighing me down and what I hope to change in 2020. Leave any feedback or thoughts either here or over on my Patreon. Thank you so much!
If you'd prefer, click here to read the post on my Patreon!
Original Text:
Hey everybody! This post will be a little different than usual. The last few nuzzling drawings will be posted soon, and I'll be wrapping up February with one last poll! Lots of text tonight.
First things first, I want to thank each and every one of you so much for your support! I know I've had plenty of content droughts the past few months, but every single pledge is a big help toward supporting myself and my family. To be direct, the major cause of any lack of updates or communication the past several months have been from my ongoing treatment for my thyroid cancer. The surgery, iodine treatment and replacement hormone pills I've been on have all been successful, but have affected me in ways I did not anticipate. My body has struggled to adapt to the lack of a thyroid gland, and I've since been dealing with some very major anxiety and depression accompanied by chronic muscle pain.
This has had a major effect on my life, and has made it very difficult to get myself back on track in terms of work. I've touched on this before on a Twitter post I made last Fall, but this is the first time I've really gone into detail on why I've been unable to maintain a consistent presence online. It's been difficult coming to terms with the fact I "lost" most of 2019 to dealing with illness and the fallout surrounding it, but it's important that I be direct with you guys as my supporters. The good news is that my treatment has been successful so far, my prognosis is good, and I have a thankfully non-urgent condition. Now that I know my health is stabilizing, I've been able to muster up the courage to write all this.
This leads to the more interesting part! I want to start offering you guys more for your generosity. The archives and polls are dandy, sure, but It's my goal to start engaging with all of you regularly to make my art going forward more of a joint effort. Starting next month, I'll be uploading my art here on Patreon a day earlier than anywhere else. I'll also (finally) be clearing up my commission queue to get a regular workflow going for myself again. I need to add at least another patron tier to round things out, and am currently brainstorming on what to offer for it. Most importantly, I'll be active on my social media so that you guys don't feel like you're leaving money in front of a brick wall. You guys make this all worth it to me, and I want you know it!
I'll wrap this up just asking you guys for your opinions on how I should expand on my Patreon going forward. Are you guys comfortable with the tiers as they are currently set? Is $3 and $5 fair, or would you prefer $2 and $4? What kind of rewards and shout-outs would you love to see? What other kinds of interaction would get you excited? This isn't really a poll, so much as an open suggestion box on how to make my Patreon the best it can be!
Anything you can think of, go ahead and leave it in the comments below!
My goal for 2020 is to make this a great artist-patron relationship. As my current patrons, I want to make sure to fill you guys in on all of this first. Thank you all so much for reading this wall of text, you guys are awesome! Here's to a new and improved Frumples!

11-05-19 Update: Overdue-vember!
Posted 6 years agoHey again all, copying my Patreon update here for you guys. Following up on my last post, I want to lay out what my focuses will be on this month. While I've got plenty of ideas floating around on what to work on next, the most important thing for me is to have a clean slate first. Some Fall Cleaning is in order!
As I've touched on before, I've got a good amount of commissions on my backlog that have been unfinished for some time. Some are personal, and a good chunk are left over from Mayternity. With how much time has passed, it's my goal to complete all of these now that my faculties are in order.
This being my first priority, Overdue-vember has now begun! Starting tomorrow (that's 11-06), I'll be picking up my commissions where I left off in May. Just like before, I'll be working on them in chronological order. Only then will that kitty tum be flat once more.
That's not all I'll be focusing on this month, but I'll make another post focusing on shiny new things soon!

Patrons: First Archive is up!
Posted 6 years agoJust a quick heads up for any patrons. The first archive of my artwork is available! Click here to get access!
10-25-19 Update!
Posted 6 years agoHey everybody. This is a bit of an extension from my post back on the 7th. Now that we're in the tail end of October and things are looking more stable, I've started rolling out more rewards for my Patreon! Please give my latest post a read when you have a chance!
Aside from my uploads, I haven't been present on any social media for the past few months. I want to apologize for the inconveniences this has caused any of you. I've been in the process of recovering from my iodine therapy back in May, and it has been a difficult span of time for me both mentally and physically. The changes in dosage to the Synthroid I take have impacted my day to day life. It will be a while before I'm back to my "old self" as it were, but I'm pushing myself back onto the interwebs to interact with you guys again. I'm hoping this will help ease my anxiety over time.
I want to thank you all so much for sticking with me despite all the interruptions I've experienced in my art workflow. Getting myself to draw everyday again has been very therapeutic for me, and I hope I've made enjoyable content for you all at the same time. Here's toward the rest of 2019 looking up!
