It's been a while since the last time I updated. There's a few things I've been wanting to address. My new website, how art things have been going, and what else is going on.

So firstly, I have a new website! Thanks to my beloved husband Thomas for making my web design come to life! Almost literally as my tiny Taala would show~ <3 Please feel free to have a look around! --> http://taalaruhun.com

Secondly, to explain my long silence, I've been going through a really tough time with my art and creativity. So apologies to people who have been a waiting a long time for my commissions, I have been trying little by little to get back into it. It's basically a really bad art block, but instead of not feeling inspired to draw, I'm afraid of it to the point it can set off my anxiety, and recently gone into a state of not feeling the creative buzz at all. If my recent commissioners would like refunds, I am more than happy to provide as stated in my ToS. Otherwise, I will keep you informed with my current progress.

I know it's a phase at least, a reaction to my changing lifestyle as my personal assistant contracted job has become a little more intense (I love dogs, but they can definitely be hard work), still looking for full or part time employment (did have a job interview so good luck to me) as well as emotionally supporting my husband through his tough time of unemployment (Though he is making a good effort with web coding work). So for now, I'm letting myself steadily recover back to carry on with art and commissions. It'll just take a long time. I don't know how long, but hopefully not years. I do want to get back into creativity, I feel that, so I'm just gonna take it slow.

And lastly, in the mean time I've been thinking and wandering about my stories, my comic ideas, and what I want out of life. I'll be helping and working with my husband to assist a friend to give his comic an awesome reboot! Astigian ended up being a webcomic I'd keep up to date with and felt bad that it may have been stopped for a while. So, hopefully being on board with that project will make me feel like my art isn't' worthless. I'll also be assisting DrDubz again when the time comes with his.

So, all in all, I'll be in a kinda hiatus til this art 'depression' phase is over with, but I'll be tinkering away. I just hope to come out the other end ready and able to approach art with a passion.

Thank you for your understanding, and to all of those who have been supportive this whole time. I really appreciate it.

Regards,
Tammy/Taala
