COVID-19 and the state of Commissions + Art
Added 2020-03-25 15:05:32 +0000 UTCHi fuzzbutts,
As I'm sure you're all aware, this pandemic has a lot of us fearful, restless, yearning for a sign of normalcy again. I want to take this moment to thank you for doing your part in helping slow the spread of this virus. Please continue to be vigilant, wash your hands and surfaces, exercise social distancing.. you know the drill by now.
Some of you may NOT know, however, that I work for one of the largest hospitals on the eastern seaboard of the US. What this has meant for me is that I and all of my coworkers are operating in crisis mode. This means long long hours, demanding priorities, and generally expecting my 110% at the bare minimum.
This has a direct impact on my artwork and commission work. By the time the day is done, I am beyond exhausted. The little time I do have at night goes to recovery, leaving only a small window in the mornings to do any artwork. Even then it's been difficult to find the energy. I am continuing with my art and commissions, please know that - just need to get over the hump of this like the rest of you. Until the next post, however, stay safe and healthy!
