Hey folks, Oni/Imp here. I figured I would update you all as to how I have been doing as well as where I'm at art wise. Some of you know me for my Pizza Tower artwork, others for my... uh... Sussy stuff. Outside of that, I really had been struggling with not only financial problems, but also too my overall depression. Don't worry, I'm getting treated for all of that, but for the past couple of months I really had been struggling to create art, let alone give myself any form of time to sit down and relax for a little. Nearly all of my artwork now have just been sketches, or halfway finished lineartwork. It's been tough, and mental health isn't something to joke about.
I mean... ffs I have a whole ass pile of laundry that has been in my closet for over 2 years now full of dirty clothes both my partner and I haven't washed yet and we're struggling to just even get by through the day. However, we're starting small with therapy, working out, and taking care of ourselves. I'm not going to lie, even last year I almost hit my rock bottom again and nearly relapsed. I won't share with what, mainly because I feel uncomfortable to share.
Despite sharing all of my lows, I avidly do have some very strong ups! I got a promotion with my day job, I'm getting medicated, and I've started live streaming again! Honestly, I love with how I turned live streaming into: playing video games I enjoy, artwork and showing comics, or just chilling on call with my friends and talking about dumb shit. Honestly I wouldn't know what would happen if I had lost their support. I just know emotional support can only get me so far sometimes lol.
Regardless, I would love to open up my sticker shop again, and sell prints. I mean shit, if anyone is willing to support that, I would love to hit my goal on my ko-fi, as well as gain support on twitch. I won't open commissions at the moment because I've been slacking on comms in general, mainly from just being overwhelmed by constantly editing stuff, or changing the picture constantly. That I need to talk to my therapist about and breaking through.
Anyway, I really do hope everyone here has a wonderful rest of the day and to take care of themselves. Just know, no matter what, someone does love you. It might be your mom, or that milf that's less that 30 miles away from your location, or dilf... or that lovely non-binary person from your local coffee shop, idk what you're into lol.
Take care
-Oni Demon
