(7) I am genuinely trying to straighten all of this out, but I just can't seem to find a foothold or room to breath before I am getting a boot crashing through my plans. Once this doctor role is filled and I can financially balance out food and the apartment, I will get this art queue a swift kick.

(6) frozen new arrivals. It is unclear when this is going to change. I am doing everything I can to do what extra work I can to keep us afloat, and I am going to be prioritizing some time sensitive commissions shortly to avoid any problems. I apologize for the continued sluggish nature of my work.

(5) reason why the delays keep happening. It turns out that the doctor they had on site, decided to leave their position suddenly. Their on site nurse can't step into his roles as then they would have no nurse. As a doctor physical is mandatory as a part of the onboarding for the site, they have

(4) Thankfully our need to travel is minimal and I work from home, but it means that due to the kiddo giving up their job on short notice and having to work with that is in walking distance, no extra work has been able to be found.

(2) locked in. They had them quick their job, ready to leave on a set day with bags packed, needed initial food, and supplies and everything else. No call. No pick up showed up. Didn't get a call till the next day. They were rescheduled with no communication. This has been the circle for over a

Oh it is so good. It is somehow both what you expect and nothing like what you think it will be. Honestly one of my all time favorites for being such a delightfully weird little movie.

Well, if I had to throw a movie out for anyone to watch... Watch Glorious (2022). Less you know the better and enjoy yourself.

Of course, taking on multiple jobs as of late is going to stress this, but I really am going to give this my best shot and hope that by 2025, I will emerge a much strong artist. If you have any solid tutorials or anatomy break downs to utilize for these stages, I am open to new material!

Week 2 - Work on more organic shapes and realistic shapes/muscle appearance. Visible muscles focus.
Week 3 - Gesture drawing involving focus on the limbs in question
Week 4 - Animate a rotation of the limb or features
Any bonus days/week? Take a break or freestyle it.
