Hendery discovers something new about everyone’s favorite gege…

✨Reflections✨

I haven’t finished a comic in such a long time. I suppose for a long while, I was also in a really bad place, struggling to adjust to the many things that were changing around me, and also unable to come to terms with the fact that I hadn’t really accomplished what I set out to do when I first started drawing more. Countless doubts flooded my mind, and as time passed by without a drawing or even a rough sketch, picking up a pencil or stylus again felt more and more intimidating.

I’m in a much better head space now, and I’m incredibly thankful that I found the courage and drive to actually finish this comic. The effects of stopping for so long were very much felt. Muscle memory fades just as our other memories do, and it takes a lot of exercise for it all to come back to you.

There are still a number of things for me to sort out, and I’ve come to accept that in general, I will have less time and energy for my artwork. I suppose that also makes me cherish these pieces more.

So much has changed in the online spaces that I’ve inhabited in the past 5 years. Management, algorithms, online moots, friendships that come and go… while I deeply treasure all the art I’ve made, and the experiences those 5 years gave me, currently it feels like I’m back at square one all over again. Or well, not really, more like New Game plus (+). Yes, New Game (+). I think that’s a nice way to put it, lol.

Anyway, amidst everything, I’ll remember that my art doesn’t mean anything less if there are also less people interacting with it. And even if no one does, what I made is still a piece of my mind, my soul, and my heart, brought to life and shared with the world through my own hands.

That will always be something beautiful, and meaningful to me.

(through gritted teeth) sometimes what's good for your mental health isn't another do nothing day or a little treat sometimes what's good for you is putting in some of the work. Not all of it at once but sometimes you have to finish that essay or at least take the next step or you have to clean your room or at least dust the shelves or you gotta do the laundry or at least put it all in the hamper and it's not fun and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks but you have to because i read a post on the internet that told me that's what being nice to yourself is sometimes

Here we are, y'all. This is the first gif I have made in 10 years! Wow, it feels good to flex that muscle after a loooong rest. Maybe it's a bit choppy, but eh it's fine with me as long as I get to watch my meow meow Thanatos tonguing his Zagreus, heh
