It's almost been a year, what. I haven't given up drawing entirely, just the digital stuff. It's always weighed in the back of my mind that I needed to come back, fresh new head on me, and start again. I dusted off my tablet and looked in my art folder, stuff from a year ago, is sitting in there. I remember back then thinking, "This is crap, why do I do this? I have a child who needs me too much. I can't.." and I put down the pen.

Now I look at those pictures and I think they look really good, I don't know why I was so hard on myself! PART of it was postpartum depression and self-loathing. I did get hit with that pretty hard in those first few months after my son was born, but I realized it and came to terms with it, I got better. Learned to love myself again and stop feeling guilty. This is all personal stuff to me, but I felt like I owed an explanation for my disappearance. So here it is.

So.. I took a break. A longer than intended, much needed, break. Until I felt brave enough to pick up that pen and start again.



TLDR: Personal hiatus was taken for heavy stuff like child-rearing and self-rediscovery!

I'm due to bunker down and draw some fanart

I have a Doctor Who trio pic I have yet to finish, it was intended for Christmas, but then I got too busy. Also need to draw some Flutterbat. c:
