2023 has left me worn out physically and mentally, and if you noticed my art and commentary being dryer as a result of that, i'm truly sorry. so many things have been happening relentlessly, both globally and personally, without much break that it's been bleeding into all aspects of my life. i've been slowly losing my enjoyment over art and my own ocs that i've forgotten what they meant to me. i want to be passionate again about art but i've learned that forcing it doesn't help either. and yet, still, there are people supporting and waiting for me. thank you.

i normally don't make these kinds of post because this happens way too often for my liking (across. multiple websites 😭) and this is embarrassing for me to share, but i think i can let out some of my weariness at the end of the year and start over with a clearer head.

in january i'll be starting another internship at a hotel for 6 months, so i'll probably be inactive for that duration. maybe i'll reexamine my relationship with art or maybe i'll take a break from drawing indefinitely.
