Hey there everyone, this is the latest piece I've been working on. It's called "Reflection," and I had it sitting in my WIPs for a while but it wasn't quite the right time to work on it until recently. I'll have prints of this piece available on my form shortly!

As some of you may already know, my dad passed away this past Friday after fighting cancer for 3 years. I was there with him and my family during that time. He always really supported my artwork ever since I was little, and whatever project I wanted to work on. When I was into cosplay, he built me all kind of crazy incredible props for my costumes, and helped me paint them. He was a guitar maker and a master cabinetmaker, chef, gardener, and a million other creative things. These past 3 years have been the hardest time of my life (and my family), and I know it's still going to be a bit of a struggle for a while. 

Thank you all for your love and understanding. I'll still be painting, don't worry. ♥

Oh, Lily, I'm so sorry for your loss. My heart goes out to you and your family. 🖤 (Beautiful art as always. I'm especially blown away by how perfectly you capture Astarion's scars so consistently, the details are flawless.)

please take care of yourself during this trying time. rest, spend time with friends and loved ones, decompress, whatever makes you feel better. grief is a long and nonlinear journey. thank you for sharing your art with us regardless. it's beautiful and wistful. you're in my thoughts. ❤️

I agree with the others here. You take care of you first. If painting our favorite vampire brings you some peace or distraction, go for it. But if you need time to cope and process or just be for a little while. Or a long while take it. We will all be here when you get back into it. Thanks for all you do

So sorry for your loss sweetie. I lost my dad in 2017. Nothing prepares you for the loss of a parent especially one whom is so supportive and such a pivotal part of who you are. Take your time taking care of you and know there is no wrong/right way to grieve. You do what you need to do to work through everything and don't let anyone tell you differently. ❤️
