Weekly Update

Hello my beautiful people! I hope you are all doing all right.

I am fine. I had the first full day off since my return from the holidays. And since I've been sick during the holidays, It felt like months ago :P I needed that! Tiredness was one of the reasons last week's commission took so long. Friday night, I was utterly beaten. And because of it, I made a mistake somewhere. I'm not entirely sure what I did wrong. If and how I deleted the wrong thing, or if I just forgot to save before closing the doc, but... Opening the picture on Saturday morning, I had lost part of my file representing a good 3 or 4h of work. So what supposed to be a chill half a day of work, turned into a full day, while already exhausted.

So yeah, Sunday's break was needed.
And because of that, I didn't prepare this week's commission as I usually do on Sundays.

All this to say that, this week, is going to be a bit different.

I'm not sure if you guys know that, but I rarely limit myself to 8h/days. It's usually closer to 12h/days. Not healthy I know... But there's nothing I enjoy more than drawing, so I barely feel it.

That said, this week, I have things planned for Tonight, probably tomorrow night, definitely Wednesday night, and something I want to do on Friday night. That is a lot of nights... A lot of nights I won't be working. And since commission takes a lot of time in preparation, the back and forth, and I tend to work harder on the sketch (after all, I want the commissioner to understand what they approve of), they take a lot more time than usual.

I decided, exceptionally, not to work on a commission this week. This week will be entirely dedicated to the cartoon carwash. And I hope to bring it pretty close to the finish line that way ^^ I wish to complete this one by the end of the month (not that I'm not entirely enjoying myself working on this), so I can use February to clean out the remaining list since, I have a comic collaboration planned in March with Tracy Scoop: I figured that, since I'm tapped out of script ideas, I might as well work with her to give you all a new comic relatively soon. Also, I adore Tracy and will ALWAYS be happy to collaborate with her.

So... That's it for now.
See you all soon!

I love your art and the passion you have for it but I don't subscribe to your patreon just to support your work. I subscribe to your patreon to support you. I do it so you can take breaks when you need them and so you don't feel like you have to rush your art or work long days. Knowing I'm helping to give you the freedom to explore your craft on your own terms is a great feeling. So I hope you remember to keep giving yourself as much care and consideration as you give us.
