April 2025 Crayon Commissions + Some personal thoughts

Added 2025-04-07 17:17:55 +0000 UTC

I don't have much in the way of PDF sketchbooks this month, so I thought I'd post all the crayon commissions I've been working on in the meantime ♥ I would like to open these up again, maybe in a couple of months!

I have been thinking of wiping my Patreon recently, simply because ever since I moved over to my webshop for physical set releases, I just do not use it as much anymore. I only use it for digital rewards, of which I wish I could produce more of.

That being said, I have been unable to produce more content because I lack the time. I lack the time because my job, Ocean In Space, (which is an official corporate entity that employs me) is my household's sole income, therefore I have to work constantly to meet end's meet. I employ my partner (Shane), and myself, and my assistant part-time.

But recently it has become too much. Some of you might know I still deal with chronic issues that effect me daily. This is the reason why I scaled back my life so much years ago. I moved away from the city and I decided I couldn't handle it anymore.

But I'm stronger now, and Shane and I want to move back to the city. ♥ And he wants to get a full time job in his field that will make more money and help front our basic needs. And who knows maybe have a family.

I feel like, while I have been flourishing, and I have a lot of projects and amazing things coming up - where I'm at right now, I can't stop what I'm doing. Like I actually don't have much time at all to breathe, and if I do, I can't front bills. And unfortunately, moving is expensive, so I can't really slow down this year. But once we do move, and maybe I am in a more stable place, I would love to be able to offer proper content and connecting with everyone more. I want to make an artbook, a Discord group... I've even been working on a Vtuber. ♥ I really want it all. So please wait for me 🙏

Much love and thank you as always for your support!♥
