Think I'll pin this one so new folks can see how crazy I am. This is the original BirdsTaking from 2021, that was actually done in 1 year.

You folks are my rock <3 you know who you are.
I mean this with every fiber of energy in my mind body and soul.
Frequent customers are the reason I’m still alive and getting through with my work. It’s how I’ve survived.
Please, know you’re never a bother. I cherish my clients so much.

For the people who think they are bothering the artist by commissioning them again and again
YOU ARE NOT!! WE LOVE YOU!! 😳💗
Biggest form of flattery in my mind!

The other day, I learned that Janie’s Got A Gun has a radio edit. I’m a little old lady from the 80s so I’ve been hearing this song for most of my life, including on the radio. And I never knew this version existed. Definitely not as effective.

You know, I’ve read dozens upon dozens of chosen one dragon rider fantasy books. I love them. But this one I’m reading now is giving me anxiety, because none of the eggs are hatching for the protagonist.

So I have crane friends and now, crow bros! Actually been working on this goal for quite some time. They make themselves known when I’m in their section of the neighborhood now.
