Apologies

Added 2025-04-17 06:18:18 +0000 UTC

It always feels terrible coming back to here to apologize over and over again for my absence and terrible upkeep on this place.

I haven't been drawing for myself as actively as I was once in the last four months.
These two hit the hardest as I was dealing with a severe case of sarcoptic mange -- Scabies.
Plain and simple. The house had a huge skin mite infestation that is only manageable through lotion treatments and medicated baths.

Without going into too much detail. My mother neglected her animals and when I fronted the money to care for them, set up the vet appointments, and get us a new vet. She grabbed the money and left the dogs.

Both dogs I adopted when I moved back in to provide for my family as a unit. With that and I working from home, the dogs and I bonded and stuck to me.

The died during my attempts to get them help these last two months of medical dips and vet visits. I'm happy they are no longer suffering, but it is the reason why my absence in art excluding commissions has been so terrible.

I do not blame you all for the disappointment in the lack of art and I have no guarantee I'm up to par. I'm not myself. I'm still struggling aggressively with this loss. The most I can provide you all is sketches, nothing complete, no pages, just small things that have provided me some happiness.

Please take care of your pets in your family. Even if they don't belong to you, or if it means finding them new homes.
