i think it’s actually really important for artists to look at the comments on today’s video. i’m seeing so many clients sharing their experiences with artists ghosting them and how demoralizing and impactful it was, and i think that’s something artists don’t really expect.

thank you so much to everyone who participated in and supported spooktober!! it’s the first time i’ve fully finished an october art challenge since 2019, and while it was definitely a lot of work, it was so worth it - i’ll be making it a yearly thing for sure!
