Keeping this up for the third yearin a row(x), because it’s always a nice way to look back at the big picture of what I actually ended up making over the course of a year. There’s some cool stuff missing that I worked on this year… but due to computer issues, I can only grab from what I actually posted online. I’m happy with most of it, but also like… wow my style is all over the place.

What did I get up to in 2021?

1. Spent Christmas and New Year’s in the UK.

2. Travel ban continued so in April-May-June I returned home by myself once more, and spent it working on a longer comic project with a collaborator. It’s called MASTABA and it will get done eventually!

3. Spent my birthday in the UK again, and finally finished that Curiosity portrait I sketched back in 2018. Also got quite a few commissions.

4. In September we got the word that the USA would be lifting the travel ban in November! Purchased two tickets for myself and @professorflowersand thankfully, everything worked out, and we MADE IT. We’re with my parents for the holidays TOGETHER.

5. After stressing about it for over a year, I finally submitted my visa application and am currently awaiting the decision from the UKVI. It’s not a visa to move, it would just give us permission to get married in 2022 like we want to!

6.After the End is still in production and we hope to print it in early 2022! We’re both looking forward to the new season of Good Omens and hope to see you all there!

This year I’ve been thinking a lot about what I like doing and what I’m good at, and what the future looks like for me and my art. Two years of ongoing pandemic is no joke, and if you’re having trouble managing your mental health, please just know you’re not alone. <3
