Holiday update!
Added 2017-12-18 06:36:52 +0000 UTCI'll be making the four hour pilgrimage to my parents house this Christmas, and while I'm leaving on the 22nd (which is Litha, so I wont be having myself a bonfire after all :c ), I still want to spread some of the summer warmth to everyone out there who has supported me.
I had no confidence at the start of this year, and while I was facing a myriad of mental health issues, I had the small community I had surrounded myself with on Twitch provide encouragement. My Twitch community held me up when I was so afraid of falling. As this little community I call my Coven has grown and shifted, I have too.
This year I learned that, if I work hard, I can have the life I want. Sometimes it's hard, and the stress wears me down, but knowing now that I have a folio of work that has made so many smile is just. It warms my heart. Every compliment, new patron, and commission bolsters my strength. Reading this, I know I don't have the words to fully express my gratitude. I've tried to capture the feeling in my illustration above. If only I could hug each and every one of you.
My coven, thank you so much for accompanying me on this wild ride. 2017 has been huge, but you know that 2018 is gonna be bigger! Spread joy, spread love, and take care!

As for the nitty gritty stuff: I'll be unable to start any new digital pieces over my break, and will do my best to respond to any correspondence. As per usual, keep up to date on my Twitter and in my Discord. Keep an eye out for those festive Christmas pics because you know I'll be snapping away! And if you like, I would love to see your Christmas festivities! Feel free to share them in the Coven!
I've got two full commission slots open before Christmas! I'll be leaving on the 22nd, so final commission orders must be in by the 20th to make it in time for Christmas! I'll be back to work on the 26th!
