Lookie what the cat dragged in ... No but seriously, hello you all 💜 It has been a while, my longest impromptu "hiatus" yet, far FAR longer than I'd ever wanted. I'm truly sorry for disappearing without even an official notice. Full disclosure, between a few happy life changes (new job, new home in a new state) and challenging familial obligations (sick mom, sick husband, sick kitty), I kinda crashed and burned, and let a number of important things slip through the cracks. Including myself and you dear folks.

I try to hold myself to a higher standard when conducting a small business (it's art, it's fun, but it's ultimately a business) but I fell short of those basic standards this past year. If my silence worried any of you, I apologize. Please be assured that I'm getting my ducks in a row. I just only had enough mental "spoons" to take care of immediately pressing matters. To those of you I still owe work, I will be in contact with you promptly and will do everything I can to make amends for my lapse in communication, including completing the art or issuing a full refund.

As for personal art, I haven't done much of that for myself either. Which is okay! For me, art has its seasons, comes n goes, and it'll ebb its way back in due time. My FA and Twitter will be a little dusty for a while, but this won't be forever :)

Friends, take care of yourselves and thank you for your understanding 💜
