Dear Patrons
🕑 Added 2023-02-20 23:53:41 +0000 UTCIt has taken me an entire week to gather the sense and courage to write this message to you, and to find a place in my head where I can say it as respectful to the gravity of this situation as I could be. My father passed away due to a serious heart attack on the night of the thirteenth. Almost all of my work has been completely stagnant since that day. I am not going to write a long winded obituary here on patreon, as it's not really the place for it, but I will state that my father was my single best friend in the world. I am torn in ways I can't even comprehend.
With this above stated, deadlines and projects have been pushed back from where I wanted them to be. I couldn't possibly have expected this, so close to the death of my Grandmother, and so close to my commitment shift to take up responsibility to my career. What this means for me is that I needed to apply for a second job, which I will hopefully be starting soon. I will be working both on art, and this second job, in tandem. I have an obligation to save my father's house, and that takes money. I am not asking for any increases in donations or anything of the sort, but keeping everyone here in the know as to a shift in my own expectations.
What this means for this channel: I will be working two jobs at once. I will have half the time I previously had for Art during the week. This job I've been offered is generally a half of the week type job, cycling between four and three days at a time. I have no intention of stopping my art. I very well will likely end up sacrificing free time just to work even more. I have no qualms with that as creating art for this community is genuinely an amazing time. Due to the unexpected emotion bomb that landed on my soul, I can state that all projects I intended on finishing this month have been delayed thus far. I still have funeral arrangements to tend to, and other obligations regarding the death and finances, but will be getting back to art starting tonight and tomorrow.
For the TLDR: I am hurt, I will be working a job along side my art, some projects have been delayed.
If anyone would like to support my family, or say something nice, this page has been set up as a fund raiser to do so, please share: https://www.givesendgo.com/SupportingtheArellanofamily?mibextid=Zxz2cZ
I love you all, I hope everyone here has the most amazing day, and I will be posting some new art in the near future. Thank you all for your support to this day, and if you feel the sentiment "I wish I could help" every single one of you already has. I'm forever grateful.
