Confession
Added 2025-07-05 23:22:17 +0000 UTCTo all who have sponsored and supported me,
Hello, my dear sponsors and fans who love and enjoy my art. A considerable amount of time has passed since I began my journey as an artist. During this time, I've genuinely been happy, and I can unequivocally say that I've become who I am today thanks to the love and support of kind people and those who genuinely cheered me on.
However, reality isn't always positive. As time went on, I grew older, but my income did not. Having chosen a path different from most, I was in a position where I needed to show stability to gain my family's approval, but I failed to do so.
When my family pressured me to seriously consider quitting art, I was speechless. Seeing my unstable situation, where I couldn't even earn as much as what ordinary people make from their labor, everyone questioned my choices with skepticism.
I've done a lot of thinking.
I've always considered having something I love to do as a blessing in life. However, when that blessing didn't translate into a skill recognized by society, its weight crushed my spirit.
It broke my heart to realize that the people who love me wished for me to stop drawing. But this wasn't resentment or hatred towards my family. It ultimately stemmed from my own shame. In a way, perhaps I didn't try hard enough, was too complacent, and settled for an easy life.
Everything came from my own shortcomings.
Therefore, I am writing this as a reflection. I will work harder and strive more. I will run without rest. I will endeavor to live as a human being who can lead a life at a level that is considered normal in the society I live in.
Because, despite everything, I don't want to give up on art or abandon the sole driving force of my life just because it doesn't bring in money.
In the future, I will diligently open commissions and strive to become a better artist, worthy of the support you've given me.
Thank you for reading this long letter. I am always grateful. And I am sorry.
