My dears, as you remember, last year in September I took a break to deal with my creative crisis and have been making great plans for this year. Alas, I failed to implement them, and the crisis continues to gain momentum. At the moment, I see the only solution to this problem - in the suspension of the work of all my accounts for an indefinite period. I need time to catch up with misplaced priorities in my work and reflect on it in principle (this decision is not connected to my emotional state, there is no reason to worry). However, the fact that I'll stop uploading new drawings as usual doesn't mean that I'll stop drawing. I'm engaged in several projects connected to drawing and I could publish news about it from time to time. Also I plan to take commissions of a certain format soon. I'm sorry about how things work out, but I don’t see any point to continue tries to manage my accounts the way I did before.

Merci pour votre patience

My dears.

I have been in a state similar to a creative crisis for several months. It didn't come as a surprise to me - someday it had to happen, everything has led to it in recent years. But I don't want to go into details and describe the reasons. It will be much more important to inform you of the decisions that this crisis prompted me to take.

There will be no more posts until the end of this year. In addition, I will delete all my artworks from all accounts.

Due to some circumstances, I haven't been able to reach that level of creativity and its demonstration, which I consider necessary for myself and without which I lose the desire to share anything. It's time to fix it.

Starting next year, along with the new works, I will begin to upload some of the old ones, which I will redo to the desired level. The level that, in my opinion, they deserve, but do not reach it now. Also during these quiet months I will work on a project that I plan to finish in January in time of my returning.

I see no reason to deny myself this "update" and I hope that you will also support this decision, and those who are interested in my works will stay with me, and I will successfully correct all the mistakes I made. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.
