Beep boop.

1 min read
I've been drawing, but honestly, my art is all over the place, even on Tumblr. Don't know if I should submit them here. Is anyone even left here??

The only other place I've been consistently posting art is TalesoftheBatala. Maybe I should scrap/reorganize my gallery here or something. But that requires effort, meh.

So I am getting messages from multiple people who are concerned for my frequent disappearances lately, so here is the update:

1.) The past several months, work has been excessively difficult. In addition to problems with a problem client, there were issues with the companies we are working with, fuddled paperwork, incooperative agents, and so on and so forth, that have been affecting my mood, stress levels, and health. Thankfully, they are largely resolved, though a few more issues need to be cared for before I am fully reprieved.

2.) My physical and mental health has been fluctuating; there are days I am super active, there are days I may as well be proclaimed dead on arrival. In addition to this, medications which have been helping me are also hurting me in unforseen ways, but I can't just drop them and make believe I'll get better without them--I do genuinely need them or else I will be barely functioning. I am making efforts to see my doctors to make sure my needs are covered without compromising other efforts in keeping me healthy.

3.) I honestly just don't have a drive to be in deviantART except to post my art. When I am online, you are more likely to see me on Tumblr, though admittedly, my activity there drops on occasion (mostly because the community in Tumblr, as much as they are much more active, is also REALLY loathesome). With that said, I do see your Notes, I do see your tags, I do see your messages. I'm either flaking and being a total ditz and not replying back, being a squealing fangirl because folks are giving me headcanons and story ideas and even fanart, or I'm a depresed or lazy (usually both) ass.

But I am drawing. I am doing commissions, I am doing concept art, I am doing gift art/art trades and such; I just don't vocalize it. I also have a Picarto channel where I try to set aside a weekly time to do livestreams on any artwork I will be working on, be it commissions, concept art, fan comics, or even free requests. I'll see if I can make it a habit to remember my deviantART exists and that I announce these streams as I am starting them.

Also, I have created a means to help me get a more consistent drive and inspiration for my Ba'tala works. An interactive Ask/RP blog is made for the entire setting of the Ba'tala, so you can interact with literally anyone of any timeline within the Ba'tala world. Not only will this give me the creative juices I need to keep going, but it'll help me build on areas with holes that still need filling. You don't necessarily have to RP--asking questions and harassing talking to the inhabitants will do just fine.

So there's that. My apologies for worrying you folks and for vanishing from the planet. I try to do my best to be active, but right now, real life and health comes first.

Hiyooooooooo, I'm not dead. I just fixed up issues with my Paypal and have been practicing on my WACOM tablet enough to have enough confidence to not only have commissions done within a year, but possibly within the week as well--or even a few days. In addition, my art has been really improving, as seen in my submissions in my gallery. My current queue of commissions is empty at the moment; my price list is available on my Tumblr blog page, seen here.

I'm also open for art trades, but please bear in mind, I will only accept them if our skill levels are fairly similar.

My apologies. Wait, why am I apologizing?

Are you even trying?

Anyway. Heads up to folks out there checking your notes. Don't click on these links, they look shifty and could infect your operating devices/get private information or whatnot.
