Yeah it's been a while since I said a word or even posted anything, and if my favorites gallery isn't evidence enough, I'm still up and around somehow. Work and issues at home, work and personally have kept me drained, not to mention trying to financially keep my head above water (and failing at times) hence why I couldn't request any commissions as usual let alone solid ideas to back them up. But enough about me... Just throwing this out there to wish everyone a blessed holidays and new year as we're days away from entering 2023 (if you can believe that, just wow). If the years before aren't apparent, more than an unfair share of bad fortune have fallen upon us and the world over, at times beyond our control or knowledge. And yet somehow in someways, such silly things like hope and (for lack of better words on my behalf) forms of good tend to shine through at the end or a rather bleak tunnel we all had to go through. It's happened time and time again, and 2023 would be no different
