Hey everyone! Hope your December is going well. Quick update on what's happening for the next few months!

I'm taking a break from animation to revisit illustration and audio simply because I'm burnt out. Frame by frame animation has really dulled my passion to create, and I want to explore other mediums until I feel comfortable continuing my unfinished projects. That said, you should be seeing lots of original art from me, of my characters, and maybe even a few collabs.

Another project I have in the works is a continuation of the sponsored collab I worked on with Lovense and Soma, which made me realize just how much I missed working on comic content.

In addition to these new projects, I am learning Live 2D! A while back, I mentioned wanted to do so in order to explore a new form of animation and potentially improve my animation workflow. I'll be rigging my PNGtuber model to familiarize myself with this program. That said, if I manage to learn quickly, you may expect a Vtuber debut from me sometime next year. No promises, but I want to keep that possibility in mind.

I want to say thank you all so much for your support and willingness to follow my aimless content creation journey. I am still learning new things everyday, and I hope that it excites you to see me grow as an artist. I am grateful for your patience. I am thankful for your interest in my work. The Ashylum has grown so much since I first created it, and it makes me happy that you're part of it. 🧡
