Hey kids, 

So its been a long time coming and honestly I have should have announced it sooner.

I will be going on an indefinite hiatus until I can get my life together. 

I have just taken over managing a store I have worked for three years as well as going to college for pre-pharmacy full time.

I have been so swamped for several years and seriously never have any time to do art these days though I yearn and crave to all the time.

I still have a few commissions that need to be sent out as well as finished. For those who are still waiting, I have no problem sending out refund payments since it will take me so long to finish things. It isn't that I do not want to finish your pieces but rather I don't even have time to breathe for myself these days. This may sound selfish but it is all because I have crippling debt that I must work so much and go to school so much to keep my student loans at bay.

I really feel horrible for not being able to get commissions and my own personal work done in a timely manner like I used to. But I realize that I am only human and I really should have thought things through before accepting on new projects. I don't know myself that well it seems.

Dont hesitate to contact me via email and or here. Ill make sure to check up for any possible refunds that are to go through.

For those who still have faith in me and have supported me all these years, thank you. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. You guys have rooted for me and kept me going for so many years. 

I hope we can all meet again in the near future whether that be in a month or a year from now. 

Thanks!

I have been meaning to send you an e-mail for months now to thank you for everything you've done, but I kept losing my nerve. But better late than never, so here it goes... :)

I want to say that I thank you for everything!
I mean it.
I have been your fan since my early teenage years -- 13 years old in fact -- and being 25 now, it's needless to say how much of an impact your art has had on me.
Believe it or not, one of your Bob bags (bright yellow satchel) was my first internet purchase. As a young awkward teenager, I distinctly remember how proud I felt to have had a bag created by one of my art heroes swinging off my shoulder. No matter what people thought, it brought me strength. Your characters, your style, and your passion definitely made me feel like someone out there understood me, in some way, and knowing that, it made me feel like the characters I was creating and stories they lived, were alright and normal.

Sorry I'm not eloquent. It's taken me a long time just to write this..... All in all though, thank you so much!!
Please take all the time you need. Life is busy! I haven't been able to pick up a Sharpie in years. I understand the frustration of wanting to be creative but having no time or mental energy to do so.

Best of luck! :) and thank you again.
