~Ash’s Art Corner~

I felt it was only right to update you all on why I’ve been away and why I haven’t been posting anything anymore.

The last two years have been hard for me and I experienced a trauma that had sent me into panic attacks and had changed the way I looked at the world.

This sadly had affected my ability to draw or do most forms of art. Where doing art used to be a safe haven and a form of therapy- it turned into a place I could no longer go to for assurance.

This is still something I’m working through each day, but at present it’s very difficult for me to even lift a pencil to paper without going into a panic attack. I’ve found other artistic means to still be creative- but drawing hasn’t been one of them yet.

I thank you all who continue to enjoy the works I have posted. My hope is that it continues to bring you joy.

Grief Journal series - 01: Dear one

I love you, and I’m sorry I wasn’t strong enough to show you that. I’m sorry that where I was at the time I was filled with fear, insecurity, and still trying to find myself. Find my voice. Find my own strength.

They say if you love someone, you let them go. If they love you and it’s meant to be they’ll return to you.

Commissioned for @misschimotosuwa-blog ~ Thank you so very much for letting me draw this for you! :D

Thank you so much to those who have asked for commissions lately! There has been a flood of people asking and I feel so grateful that I can help to bring everyone’s vision to life.

So I wanted to do a poll as to charms you’d all like to see in a first batch. I was thinking of finishing the rest of the Niflhiem set like Jean, Philippe, and Nick... but I wanted to know what you’d all like to see beforehand.

Been doodling a bit here and there, but been taking a bit of a personal hiatus. I’ll try to post when I can. Hope you all are keeping well in mind, body, and soul.

**Commissioned piece for @diagnosed-by-doyle - thank you so so much for sharing your vision of this piece with me! It was nice to be able to sink into the SCM universe again :3 It was a lot of fun and brought me back to many beautiful memories and stories.

Oh my gosh! I’m so terribly sorry I just got this! Aww... thank you so much for taking the time to write all this. *cries* Thank you for the kind and uplifting comment, it really means a lot and truly makes my day. If I can make people smile or laugh that’s what I want to do! ❤️😭😭😭

Two weeks in self isolation... well I guess it gives me more time to sketch and catch up on my many art pieces that have been waiting patiently for me to work on them.

Wishing everyone love and health and sending you all the biggest internet hug I can! ❤️

**Commissioned art piece - Thanks to Mike for allowing me to draw this for your girlfriend for Valentine’s Day** A little late in posting this, my husband and I have been quite ill for a while... so this piece was completed a while ago now. Thanks for viewing ✨

“I play my cards close to my chest” ~ Saint Germain

Was replaying Code:Realize while I was sick and even though Saint still remains my favourite character in the series (followed closely by Impey) .... I once again realize that Saint is a bit crazy. I mean that amount of time and the things he’s done (I get it) but damn my dear. Ahahaha... *coughs then sips tea* Wanted to portray the creepiness of this situation where he chases after Cardia after she escapes the mansion.

Super excited to post this commission piece for @diagnosed-by-doyle (thank you again so much for asking me to create your vision❤️)
