I dunno how many of you read my journals, but this is for those who continued following me even after my 2-year break.
I've moved to I will leave the comics, as well as for the drawings for others (trades, commission).
Reasons? Many, but I will keep them to myself.
Thank you all for the favs, watch, comments. I hope you'll follow me on my next account. 

Brace yourselves, changes are coming     

I want to make my gallery richer with new drawings, so I am asking all of my watchers to write in this journal. Please, take a few minutes of your time. I am taking FAN-ART requests. As you can see, I am good at drawing big cats and canines, so choose any Disney/Pixar character that you like (I'm also fan of the anime/manga Ginga Nagareboshi Gin/Densetsu Weed) and write it down.

Fan-Art Requests:
1. "Fox and the Hound" - Requested by RBloodwolf and naruto32 Fox and the Hound
2. Scar "The Lion King" - Requested by saraviuchiha The forgotten Prince
3. Gin "Ginga Nagareboshi Gin" - Requested by Kairo-The-PyroThe Leader of Ohu
4. Janja and Jasiri "Kion: The Lion Guard" - Requested by HyenaHomeboy Oh boy
5. Jenna and Steele "Balto" - Requested by RayveArts and KFRSOD-16 And where do you think YOU are going
6. Thunderbolt and Patch - Requested by MikoschWolfsoul Thunder and Patch

Hello, dear watchers. Hi! How are you? Is life good? I hope it is!


I think that I own you all an explanation for the reason why I haven't uploaded anything since last year. I know that only a few people will read this, but the truth is - I don't care. I used to be upset if my drawings or journals didn't get a comment, but as you get older you realize that those things aren't so important. You're your own worst critic and no matter how many positive comments you get - it's your own fault that there is something wrong with the drawing.

OK, here we go...

Last September, I packed my things and left in Skopje to start second year (third semester) in college. I was away from my family yet once again, without my computer and tablet and back to college. Life was good, I had plans about commissions and comics until year 2015 started. I was hoping that it would be a good year, since 2014 was a stressful one. But, for my bad luck, 2015 started out worse that I could ever imagine.

After 7th January, my father had problems with his heart. He was in a hospital for a week, and when he got back home, he had a therapy - which means that he was absent from work for a month (until middle of February). While he was at home taking his medication, I was studying for exams which turned out to be really hard when you have a sick parent and your mind is with them. When I finished with my exams (passed something, failed another) and as my father was getting better another thing happened - a close family friend passed away from cancer. That was a hard blow for us all.

On top of all these bad shit, there were protests in Macedonia (protests connected with college). If you search on Google you will learn more about it, but long story short - I didn't start with my forth semester in February like I was supposed to, but I started in March. During that time, I was fighting with depression. I started hating this year so much that I wished it were over. I was worrying for my father, for my future, for my choice of college... so many worries that I, so ashamed to admit this, but I considered suicide. Why? Well, for starters I wasn't the person I wanted to be. I always considered myself and artists (both drawing artist and writer). With the way 2015 started, I lost my inspiration, I lost my will to pick up that tablet pen, so I took a break from DeviantART. I checked messages from time to time, but I simply couldn't draw.

Things are better now. I'm not suicidal anymore and I'm trying to get my will to draw again back. I read When heaven becomes HELL and I became so proud of myself, of my past-self. I promise you, I will return - be patient with me! I swear I will be back.
Any who, my father is better now, thank you so much. He was back to work in February and he is more positive than I've ever seen him. In times like these, families should always stick together!


I love you all!

Hello!
How are you, my dear watchers? I hope, you are all doing great.

Any who, I'm writing this journal to state the obvious - OUaT will be discontinued. I'm so sorry. I know how much you liked it, but college and the exams that follow don't give me much free time. If you want I can draw pictures of the scenes that were meant to take place in the comic, so you will know how the story was supposed to continue. Just a thought.

When I was in high school and whether I was getting hooked up on a fascinating comic and if that comic got discontinued I was always getting angry with the artists. Now that I'm older, I realize what is like to be in their shoes. Other things come into our life, things that are more important than comic we draw for free.

Sorry, but that's the sad truth.

I have a commission to finish and I have plans for other projects... Only the future will tell.



~ Have a nice day!
