Hello Everyone
a week ago
You may have wondered where I had gone, or my reasons for shutting off my account. I'll try and give a summary, as I work to navigate my own thoughts and feelings over how I've been these past few years.
Some of you may know that I didn't entirely disappear, but downsized to my Telegram art channel, where I still post, as regularly as I can. Nowadays, I work a full time job that demands a lot of time and energy, and sadly art has become a lesser priority. But that's not why I had initially shut off my FA, or Twitter for that matter.
Truthfully, my reasons were a few things. I was having something of an identity crisis, reflecting on my time as an NSFW artist, and feeling regretful and shameful over it. It wasn't long after I had gotten push back over my work being feral focused, which continues to be a controversy. Being in my mid-20s at the time, I had only recently graduated college, had no real work experience, nor a well-paying job ahead of me. I certainly didn't want to make art my job, drawing has been and always will be something I do for the fun of it, a hobby. More than anything however, I was confronting my own religious feelings, having been brought up in a Christian household. That proved most of all to be the strongest source of my worry and stress, and so, all combined, I just needed to scale everything back.
Now in my late 20s, I have a great job, and feel more like I have a real purpose in life. The stress, though still present at times, doesn't compare to how it was then. It's taken me a long while to come around and share even this much about my absence, and in all honesty, I don't feel it's completely resolved and in the past. But, this journal is a step forward. Not a full comeback, not a glorious return, just a tentative experiment, a testing of the waters. I'm not back back. But, I'll be around.
I thank each and every one who has stuck around, who reached out, who supported my humble art endeavors, and I hope to see you all, every once in a while~ Take care
