Dear Patrons...

Hello everyone! I really hope you are doing fine and that you are safe.

As you probably already noticed I have been quite absent this month. I gotta say I started very strong with Patreon work and commissions but after the second half of May several things happened that got me out of the art zone and I feel it is about time to give some explanations.

As of the 12th of May we finally got my boyfriend to visit me here after a year of trying to find a way during the global panini. It truly was one of the happiest moments ever and I was looking forward to having him. I was slowly working on art and also spending as much time with him as possible so I reckon posting online was not my biggest priority.

Things got a bit complicated the last couple of days he was staying. Just before we were about to travel back to his place he got sick and we could not board the plane. I took him to a private doctor here and he prescribed some antibiotics to fight a potential intestinal infection. We bought the medication and everything seemed to be fine, however that night the symptoms and his overall condition got worse because of some med overdosis... So we had to call an ambulance and took him to a major hospital in the capital city, 34 kilometers away from where we were staying.

So, as you can probably tell, it was all a bit drammatic, exhausting, worrying and on top of that expensive. Because of all that and having to take care of a lot of bureaucracy and his condition I just could not focus on art as much as I would have liked. We are currently taking care of getting a rebooking for the flight and settle things with the insurances. 

If you ask why am I telling you all of this... Well, because you deserve to know why I am not delivering the stuff you paid for in the time. I have to. But I ask you to not worry. I will keep on working on the rewards you are entitled to receive. If you unsubscribed I will also send the rewards once they are ready. Things are getting better, both health wise and also trying to get another flight back.

Last but not least, I really, and I mean really really want to thank you all for the support. Whether you only support me here or you also commissioned me, during this month I needed it more than ever. I deeply appreciate you all for your patience and confidence that I can  —and I will— deliver and work my ass out to finish and send the remaining rewards.

And well, I guess that is all I wanted to say for now. Thank you again and I will see you soon and feel free to drop any comment! I will make sure I reply to all of them. 

Kind regards,

Yeiko
