Sorry for dissappearing (Explanation) by Zhuria

The last week of the month is always hard for me. This month was worse.
As you may know, kylfu (My boyfriend) got a new job, an illustration one and I'm very happy for him.
Routine changed and was adjusted to the work schedule, and I decided to take care of the house (cleaning and cooking) by myself as I don't have a job. So far so good...
Thing is, we have had a freelance job of doing coloring book illustrations for the last 2 years, that was started by him and some time after I joined in drawing and inking.
We would always ink what the other drew, as our styles are quite different and that gave the illustrations some sort of unity...
This month though, I decided I would do these by myself so he could focus on his owed commissions. And I did it, the 30 coloring book illustrations, drawn and inked by myself.
Now, you know (or at least notice in my gallery) that I prefer realism over cartoon, and these images had to be totally cartoon.
I suck at doing cartoon, and kylfu is awesome at it. I didn't like anything I did, and started stressing out about the client not liking the pictures and worried as we need the money. It took kylfu quite a lot of effort one night to help me gain confidence in my cartoon skills.
Now I think they could look better, but they aren't awful.
In between all this stuff, I hadn't been able to draw anything else, as when I get on that mood I hate everything I draw. The silly kitty comic was an attempt to break the mood and it worked.
I have one of the YCH lined and will line the other right away, and I will start replying to comments and thanking for watches and favs.
Thanks a lot for anyone that bothers on reading this.

TL;DR: I felt down for around a week about my cartoony stuff in comparation to kylfu's , gotten better. Will be resuming activity today!
