Hey there, miiiiight have gone on a little hiatus for like... a few years, and while I've not really stopped being active in this fandom, I feel like I've fallen off the boat regarding artwork.

So I guess to kick things off, an update on things

First off, and probably the biggest change, I transitioned about 5 years ago. For those who have been following my sona's evolution over the years, this probably wasn't a massive surprise, but it's insane looking back over my art and seeing just how badly I was having issues with gender identity and who I actually was as a person. At present, I'm still going by Jenks online, just using she/her pronouns. I feel a ton happier with myself, and I'm just happy to finally have all that figured out.

Next, moved around a bit. I think last I stated I was out in TX, and since then have left and moved up Northeast. Definitely nicer up here (less scorching temperatures) but we'll see how I handle the winters. I'm kind of looking forward to it if I'm being honest. As much as I am a wuss when it comes to cold post HRT, I still adore chilly, rainy days, so fingers crossed I can tough it out or bundle up enough to not hate it.

Finally, art. I definitely fell out of touch with that part of me in the past several years. I've been trying to do things like carry a sketchbook, make myself practice, but the habits just haven't been there for a while now, and I'm getting frustrated. I think a lot of dusting this account off is me trying to reconnect with that bit of my old self that just drew constantly because they could. Hopefully I can kick my ass back into gear and actually start making things I'm happy with while I re-learn everything.

Other than all that, I'm still pretty much the same goober I have been for ages now. I'm probably going to cull what's on this account down a bit, as there are some journals and submissions I feel are just kind of not what I wanna put out there anymore. This is mainly in regards to older one-off characters and journals that don't really have a place on an art page.

I hope any of you reading this are having an awesome day, morning, noon, or night, and here's also hoping there's more to come after this journal!
