It’s been over a month since my Fireside Chat post and I wanted to give an update on all of that. I’m going to keep this incredibly short. Five weeks ago I went on hiatus from creating art, and I’m not sure when I will get back to it. I will still teach children’s art classes as planned, but creating any type of artwork is not happening for a while.
For the Christians out there, God is telling me to rest and adjust my expectations. The problem is I don’t want to and/or know how to, so this could mean my hiatus will go on for an extremely painful amount of time till I get it. For the non-Christians out there who don’t understand this and think I should just get on with it, believe me I want to, but…
If you want to stay updated on this, please join my newsletter and when I return that will be the first place I’ll mention it.
Thanks for reading.

In just under two weeks I’ll be in artist alley at
