It’s been a while since I last posted here — not because I’ve stepped away from art, but because I’ve been fully focused on building something bigger than myself: a safe, supportive space for independent artists through the #43GANG community.
Today, though, I’m taking a moment to step back.
I’m currently recovering from a renal colic, and while it’s nothing life-threatening, it’s been painful and draining. Since I manage everything on my own — from reviewing submissions to scheduling posts — things across the community may slow down for a bit while I heal.
If you’ve sent a message, submitted your work, or are waiting on something — thank you for your patience. I’ll be back at it as soon as I can. 💛
And to everyone out there pushing through pain, burnout, or setbacks — take the time you need. Your well-being matters more than productivity.
Be kind to yourself.
