FROGDRAWS

my friend prompted me to make a worm on a string oc so i Brought This Noodle To Life (ft. some tamagotchi and an aqua pet)

Over the weekend, some very sudden personal/life events arose, and i first and foremost want to apologize for my absence here and what absences may arise as well due to this. The other night, my father, some may have known him as thecuriodditiescabin on etsy or instagram, passed away after a long battle with several forms of late-stage cancer that was diagnosed in the early summer. The weeks prior had been going very well in terms of recovering from chemo and building his strength back up since he was walking and starting to do his work again, but all at once he fell ill to a bacterial infection of his intestines, and was brought back to the hospital. He passed peacefully the next night and in the company of several friends and his family, myself included. He was endlessly supportive and so excited by the arts and natural world, incorporating it into every aspect of himself and his life. He was always by my side to motivate my art as we both worked together in our craft ; his own art and connections inspired me to create and explore my own creations further. Always so full of humor and curiosity and good vibes, he left the world doing what he loved best, providing support and inspiration for and creating many wonderful things for all the wonderful people that entered his life. Thank you all so much for your support and being patient me since summer as i was coming to terms with this knowledge, and for your continued support as we begin the healing process.  I am happy that the struggle is finally over for everybody involved in this, and it’s all just recovery from here, I just need to be brave. I will be online and very slowly responding to messages as I have been. I know i’ve been asking for it a lot, but i really appreciate your patience with me as I do get back to working. I’ve suspected my new medication is affecting my memory, so if there is anything urgent that you need me to reply to or see, don’t be afraid to send it again!! I think now that this is all over and that i’m out of school for the time being, I can finally redirect my focus back to all of you guys and making art again. And again, from the bottom of my heart, thank you, all of you guys, so so much for all of your kind words and wishes and just being here for me as I cope with all of this. It’s been really hard lately, but i’m ready to get back to making cool things for all you all!!!
