Hellooo everyone :)
Wow IβVE MISSED YOU GUYS!!! Thank you all so much for the sweet get well wishes while Iβve been recoveringπ₯² I have some important updates for you guys in this post so keep reading :)
I mentioned in my last post that I was taking a break from posting after straining my wrist, and that break has gone way longer than anticipated π β€οΈβπ©Ή At the time I thought for sure I would only need a week to recover, but after seeing a hand specialist, it turns out that I really overworked my drawing hand π
Iβve been learning that hand injuries take a long time to heal and require lots of rest. The last time I took a break from drawing was five years ago (which is crazy to me π) and I LOVE being productive, so this has definitely been a huge lifestyle change for me. I miss drawing so, so much!! I have all these ideas in my head that I want to draw and Iβm dying to pick up my pencil again, but I have to remind myself that self-care is the top priority.
SOβ¦
Since Iβm not able to draw at the moment, I wanted to let you all know that I am pausing Patreon billing so you will NOT be charged next month β€οΈ And in addition to that, all members will also get a free month of full content when I come back in June :) π
This means you will continue to have access to all the content in your tiers without being charged for the next two months (and thereβs a LOT to browse through, so you can relax and take your time π₯°)
I am so grateful for each and every everyone of you :) You guys are the ones who make it possible for me to create the way I do, and I have so much fun sharing what Iβve learned with our artist community and growing together. I just want to thank you guys so much for being here, your support truly does mean the world to me π
Iβll be sharing little updates with you guys over the next few weeks! Iβve been doing a lot more with my left hand while my drawing hand has been healing, so I wanted to share some messy left-handed sketches with you :) I love this sculpture pose so Iβm definitely going to refine it when Iβm recovered ππ
I love you all!! Remember to take care for yourselves, enjoy this lovely spring weather and have fun :) π·
