Wow, it's been a while, my dear friends! I hope you're all doing well and having reasonably pleasant Christmases.

Recently, I was inspired by *Beomene, the official artist for Nifflas's new game Saira, to start screencapping my painting sessions. You can watch the first two videos I've created (both with as-yet-unposted-here art) at [link] -- I plan on doing a lot more of these! It's easy to set up as long as I'm painting anyway, and I'm always doing that.

I also wanted to show you all a wonderful, charming, delightful, hilarious gift from =temiel. I woke up this morning to discover this piece of art:



HA HA I THINK I KNOW WHO THAT IS

In return, I'm drawing one of =temiel's original characters -- one of the painting videos in the aforementioned link is me working on that. It should be done before too long!

Oh, and by the way: I know that certain people have been concerned about me since I haven't been posting here as frequently as usual (relatives, I'm looking at you!). I'm touched by your concern, so please allow me to assuage your fears: I'm very happy and doing well. My lack of updates here is due to preoccupation with other stuff in real life -- the holidays, games, my husband, laundry, dishes. I was a little worried about burnout, too, pushing so hard every day, so I took a little breather. Everything's fine, though, and I just want you all to know how much I appreciate your continued attention and support.

Merry Christmas and happy holiday season to you all!
