I am so happy this week is almost over.

Anyway, it's been rough, but I'm alive. Even if my emotions were tested this week. A bad change in your life can make you realize how good you have it when things go back to normal.

Anyway, I've been pretty much AFK for 6 days at this point. I don't usually take such long breaks. But trust me, all I've wanted to do this week was art, and postings. But that hasn't been very possible for me. Things are finally going back to how they were, and I'm calming down, so hopefully by next week I'll have some new art ready to post.

I've loved the fanart guys, I truly have. And this isn't a complaint, but for now, if anyone decides to draw me, I'd prefer it if I was myself. Ya know, thin I love the WG art I've seen, and I don't mind WG being involved. But as I said, for now, I'd prefer just me, or nothin. I'm not upset about the art that's been created. I guess I just want to know that I am respected as an artist, and not just because people find my art avatar attractive. And for those curious, yes my hair really is a-symmetrical.

I haven't had my tools for days, but I look forward to working more on my commission art and personal projects. I am very grateful for all the lovely comments for my latest post, "A Day's Dream". It's nice to see a pic so new get so many favorites this quickly. I was really hoping that picture would be appreciated, as well as the character, as she's slowly becoming a favorite of mine. So thank you, and for all the support you all have given me. It's been a wild ride, let's keep it goin!
