So, I been really quiet on here for a couple years. If you're reading this, thanks for sticking with me. I'm still struggling to be more social, lol. But I am trying to reply to comments more.

But I've got some questions for any of my watchers that are still keeping up with my page:

1) Are you still interested in my OCs, or just the twins (Ipomea and Tansy)?

That's fine if you are, I just want to know what people want more of. They are my most popular characters, but I'd like to know if you find art of other things less appealing than the twins.

2) Would you be interested in commissions again?

I have been thinking of opening commissions back up. I really need the money, and 2D art is something I've really been enjoying again lately.

3) If not commissions, would you be interested in special extras via Ko-Fi or Patreon?

I have more time on my hands now, and I figure I should at least spend it wisely. I've been trying to kick my own ass to crawl out of this depressive, uncreative state and actually make more things. I made a private discord server focused on making more things, just being more productive, and I think it's time I actually finish things again. I miss my old art. I miss being proud of what I'd made, and I want to do more of it. I'd like to line, color, and finish things. I want to make videos again. Ko-Fi and Patreon have been a thing I've been interested in for a while, and I think making cool tiers like video process, voting on themes for pictures or characters, and possible prints of booklets and things would be fun.


This is basically all I wanted to talk about. I've been missing talking to people, talking about art and just having fun again. Please give me some feedback, thoughts on the questions above, or just comment in general.

I'd really like to hear from you. I actually already have a Ko-fi that I made some time ago, but never really got around to launching it. Kinda just been sitting there as a donation thing, lol, so I want to actually use the function of exclusive monthly content and etc etc. Should I go through with this idea? Is Patreon a better outlet? Below will be a test for me, see how well people like polls and if it actually adds anything to content you guys like or not. Please please please comment and let me know your thoughts!

POLL: I want to do a cute christmas illustration for Ipomea and Tansy, but I'd like you guys to give me a theme to focus on for them! I like giving them different clothes and hairstyles with basic ideas at the core, since they're just so fun to dress up. Click here to vote!

As you can see, I've been more and more inactive on here.
I always forget to upload art, or I'm just not happy with the
level of quality I deliver anymore.

I haven't drawn anything PPG in years and I still have a
ton of people who seem to follow me specifically for the
nice Puff stuff. So I feel guilty.

I also have nothing finished to upload for OCs either, which
sucks because I feel so lucky to even have people who
enjoy my original content in the first place (the twins most
of all).

And here I log on and realize that people still actually care
about me, sending me all these sweet birthday wishes. But
I'm so late to seeing it, that responding with thanks months
after just seems so...ungrateful and rude. Shout out to you.
Thank you so much for thinking of me after all of my
disappointments.

School has been happening too, but I'll be graduating soon.
Somehow. I'm not very confident at all and I feel very
unchanged. I'm going to have to find a job and stuff but I
feel undeserving of anything I've even been studying for.
I thought that 2017 would be a better year for me, but it
seems even worse than before. I've been really letting
myself down, and for that I apologize, because that means
that I'm also letting you down.

Back to the art, I have many sketches that are just waiting
to be lined and colored, but I have no motivation to even
do anything with them. My 2D art has evolved a lot since
I drew them, and going back to old sketches feels...not
good? It's a thing.

So I have no idea where I go from here. Just crossing my
fingers and hoping I can be in a better point, get my life
together, and actually finish some nice drawings for you.

Thanks for reading, I really appreciate it.

I just mass deleted a bunch of journals, notifications, and some
comments/replies due to how god damn slow I am with replying
and checking stuff. If you want me to see something/remember
some thing, please comment it below, Note me, or whatever.

I have mostly been hanging out on tumblr, so if you use that
and want to see my dumb posts you can Note me for my URL
I guess.
