Ah, that reminds me of the Dutch idiom
"De kat uit de boom kijken"
Or in other more English words:
"Watching the cat out of the tree"
I think it means your cat is functioning... and I wanna give pets too now by watching through my phone out of the tree

Capuchino after having my pizza sushi roll dinner and finished cutting up my pasty with scissors.
I'll keep some ice cubes ready to make the coffee and wine colder if it's warm outside.
With little snack of focaccia dipped in sparkling butter
...
Or I'll just let the Italians order for me.

"This throne shall suffice for today's cat session, I'll grant you some time for whatever it may be you humans do. Now begone, I have important tasks at paw."
This aesthetic n vibe is art worthy aaaa

It made sense to me to try and give best wishes to their own journey and new job, a positive job change!
I genuinely always wanted to be able to show more support or recognition to others. My art is how I tried to share despite anxiety, wanting to show care or understanding of other's experiences.

They seemed nice so far! It was also best case scenario we got to have a meeting with all 3 of us together in person. Feeling good about it.

Thank you
It really is. Even if it's difficult to balance it with ongoing and past, which led to me being signed up for trauma therapy.
It's been important to make a routine to keep holding onto the positive steps just as much. Just not always sure how to deal with the current i.e. regarding public

When I started a few years ago, I couldn't even try to hint or think at anything like this, but now my body isn't tense and didn't lock up at simply the thought of bringing something.
I even had Nautila plush give it herself !

That part was so fun to make!
Actually, I need to mention a big inspiration for how: Michael James Smith who makes a lot of cool realistic painting videos on YouTube. Especially outdoor scenery.
I remember it was an influence during the making of these
Definitely check him out for all the ripples

For in the future, I was considering expanding on this with artist comments, possibly as part of my supporter/Patreon Discord Server?
With taking questions too for each piece.
There's still so much not shown in a WIP, many of my thoughts and reasonings.

Going to Italy for the first time ever, later this month, for Eponafest!
Nervouscited, it is difficult to manage energy for prepping, I get to do a bit of vending and a collab activity, it'll be fun either way tho with good folk.

We all end up having to make the cringe our core from which we grew!

Appointments, medicines, health walkies, windmills, typical dutch things right? This monkey is trying to survive the sun and probably other stuff too.
Finding balance is really hard. Doesn't really come natural. Maybe more due to ADHD, but it's always been juggling just the extremes together.

Also let me know if A6 postcard is too small and you'd be more interested in A4, A3 or bigger.
This little printer has been real nice and I'm figuring out what's possible and what might sound interesting to see at my future vendor tables. Hoping to still make art financially worthwhile ^_^

Kinda worldwide thing I believe and from the sound of it.
Heck… elementary trauma, a female teacher bully until tears then ignored, because "he's too nice for a boy, it's not normal"
Girls tried to comfort but also still kids.
Not much hugging until the more huggy US pony friends helped practice

I never could get used to something around my wrists like a watch. Maybe due to my wrists being darn skinny lol.
But you just made me think about having a smart pocket watch instead!
Might miss on the heartsensor and such, but having it on a nice chain and along with vest and shirt… I kinda want

FCW was made not to write stories but to craft a world in which stories are made. I still hold it dear, and should gather the lore I've build or wrote in the art descriptions over those years.
I enjoy trying to build a good enough world where you want to know more, or inspires stories

Being embarrassed but also honored at any compliments sounds like me ^_^
I can assure you that I always take such interactions positive, tho!
I've tried to put myself out there even before working on anxiety [since the past couple years] and I fully know how it can be on either side of the table xD
