Happy 30th birthday...
Something you realize only later as an artist, is that to keep your characters alive and doing new things, you gotta pour in bits of your own life, your time...
It's not that I regret anything, but this really hit me in the past 3 years, a time where I desperately needed to feel more alive after almost a decade of suffering internally.
And when your art and your characters get less and less time, it's not just the artist who suffers, it's all the people who liked them too.
I'm sorry for the long hiatus on my comic, I was in a place where I needed to experience more of my own life in order to heal from trauma.
Thank you for being so kind to me ever since I posted my first drawing, I'll always be grateful and will always want to give back this feeling.
I've moved back to my hometown for healing, and where I live now there's more trees, more silence... the very things that made me start doing my own art, in my own time.
My things took over a month to arrive and I've been closer to family. I had a lot to reflect on during this time.
There were days sleeping around boxes, sick and coughing. But things are finally to look better
I'm back with my computer and tablet, and most importantly: peace
I'm going to get back to my activities and enjoy my birthday as best as I can. 🎈
Yours truly, Zeta Haru.
