Description
As the days go by he gently starts to sink into his work. He feels cold though it's a warm summer, he ignores everything else. Food, sleep, hearing, feeling. All he can see through the waves is his work.
Sorry you guys haven't been seeing me much. To be honest the past few months were a downward spiral for me. Two weeks back I had to go to the college nurse because I had started missing lessons. It turns out that I might have social anxiety.
I'm not going to let it affect my work though, or how I speak to people. I've been attending my lessons and throwing myself into social situations. Hopefully it's upward from here. I do miss every single one of you a lot when my activity dwells, so I just want to thank you guys for sticking with me. I have some new watercolour paints and am keen to use them.

I'm glad to see another one of your works here~ You can't help but feel bad for him looking at this picture. Those glazed over eyes are so sad, it's like he's in a daze. His determination is admirable.
Sorry to hear about the issues going on in your personal life. Social anxiety sucks. I'll be wishing you good luck with everything.

Dammit, sorry for the incredibly late response. I know that it's already all been said before, but this is a phenomenally emotional piece of work, and I think that it's just fantastic! I'm really sorry to hear that you're going through all of that crap, and I really hope you overcome it soon. It's lousy to have to try and describe all this over a keyboard, but I truly wish you the best.
and pfff, I miss you as well, for the record, sorry I'm on and offline at weird times! ...aaaaand I will take care of that letter and button this weekend ajfkdshkdjs

So beautiful, if also sad. I love your style so much.
I know how you feel. I haven't been diagnosed because I've never gotten checked, but I am definitely on the very very shy/anxious end of the spectrum. Hope things start to go better for you

Thank you! ^^ I'll send it to you once I get a hold of that picture. It's been taken down now, I just need to collect it.

Your style is so distinctive, and really interesting and engaging to look at - the watercolor shades, the inking, everything.
And good luck taking care of yourself. Your experience sounds kinda like my own, when I was in school. It can be tough, but I think it's definitely something you can get past. Best wishes!

Social anxiety? Urgh, I hope not ...
But I can't stress enough how much I love your style and works. Your style really became sharp and the way you portray foxes is so anatomical correct; something I still couldn't figure out how to do. Those outlines look wonderful as well. Also love how weary he looks here; i can feel his exhaustion here.
