Hello folks, I know that I don’t frequent deviantArt as much as I used to, but I feel like I have had quite a long spell away from it recently. I’m also aware that my correspondence has been a lot worse. I’ve also got a couple of commissions going that I made a good start on back in April and haven’t really progressed much since. Here’s why. So, I’ve always been quite open about the more personal side of my life because the truth is, it can affect what time I can give to the art side of my life, and in this virtual world it’s quite easy to assume the worst when people fall off the radar. If you’ve read my previous journals, you’ll be aware that my boy is severely autistic and for the last year has been going through school refusal. This obviously presented an awful lot of challenges for myself, my wife and my daughter, especially as my son would self harm if he got distressed to a certain level. I’m happy to say that we’re in a much better place now after some help and my son is a lot

Haven’t offered commissions in a long time due to family commitments so… Gotta keep these simple as I don’t have much free time anymore. Limited background. Original Characters preferably but don’t mind fanart so long as it’s sensible. Please send me a note on DA to discuss finer details. Nothing inappropriate please, I will refuse anything I deem to be so, but I’m pretty easy going and happy to talk it through. If I get through these done in good time, I’ll see if I can offer up some more slots.🤞🏻👍🏻 Something similar to these: Thanks for reading. Much love.

Hello DeviantArt family. Bit of an honest one here, so here goes… Been a long time since I’ve written a journal post. Pretty slack of me to be honest, I just run short of time and for some reason I don’t give it the attention it deserves. I’ve not been posting so much lately either, both on my subscription pages and publicly, for which I apologise and extend my gratitude to those who have stuck by me even so. Here’s a little towards why… Lately, we’ve been having some difficulties with our son, who is on the more severe end of the autistic spectrum and has hit his teenage years. His communication is limited, and he’s having a tough time dealing with this stage of life. As such, his frustrations are more frequent and his challenging behaviour has been amplified more than usual, which means it’s also a more testing time for the rest of the family. He’s currently refusing to go to school and will self-harm to hammer the point home. Not easy viewing as parent. We’ve kind of readjusted
