Hi friends!

There hasn't been much of my arts here lately, and the reason for that is not a fun one. I had an attack of my chronic disease in November, and I'm still recovering. I rarely talk about living with multiple sclerosis. Most of my social media followers don't even know I have it. I used to hide it, as if the neurological problems were something to be ashamed of. Like I would look weak in the eyes of others if I admitted to having a chronic illness.

But does it have to be that way? It doesn't make me weaker or worse. It makes my life a bit difficult, and I have to pay more attention to myself than normal people do. But it has no effect on my personality, on my creativity.

I'm recovering from the attack, and I really hope it takes days, not weeks. It is very hard to be creative right now. I have very little energy even for everyday life, not only for painting. But I'm hanging in there and I keep fighting.

Your support is more important to me now than ever. Thank you for being with me, your love gives me strength.

I hope you will look forward to more art!
