I didn't even expect to get so much support! This means a lot to me, thank you.
I want to answer a few frequently asked questions.

- I'm not sure if I want to go back to Etsy after all this, even if this option becomes available again. For the past few years, I have worked very hard, not sparing myself and having little rest. I had a dream for which I was ready not to sleep for days. I wanted to make a house-museum in the forest. A special place where we could live surrounded by images dear to us. Images of my world and worlds dear to me. It was supposed to be similar in meaning and spirit to the House of Guillermo del Toro, if anyone here knows what I'm talking about. It would not be an imitation, I learned about the House of Guillermo del Toro much later than my dream appeared. But it's very similar.

But now this dream seems far away and completely inaccessible. I'm tired of this endless race.
Etsy has become a symbol of a broken past for me, and I want to move on and try something new.
Also, there are a lot of things I don't like about Etsy. Lately this site has been getting cold and disloyal customers, some of whom have called my sculptures "plastic junk". I want to create an audience that will be smaller, but more adequate.

- With the help of Boosty, you can buy my sculptures, but now it will be less. It is not as convenient as a full-fledged store, and takes much more time. Now it will become a deficit (sad laughter). When I have the strength and when the environment becomes healthier, I will think about creating my own store. But so far it seems complicated and distant.

My creatures are freer than I am. They can fly to anywhere in the world. They can live anywhere. I envy them a little. But it's fair. A true creator must give his creations more than he has...
These creatures, these little sculptures will keep a piece of my freedom around the world. That freedom, which we have less and less.
