HATCHERY

YOU MUST TURN YOUR BRIGHTNESS TO 65 BECAUSE THIS PIECE IS QUITE DARK.

This is my last piece.

Just now, things in my personal life have come up which I really need to focus on. Before, when I left, I was still going to create a piece or two for the group. But now, this problem is becoming more and more serious, and I cannot keep up with what I want to do anymore.

Do I love to make art? Yes. I love this community because it helped me to find things in myself I never knew I had. Much love to each and every one of you who helped me through my time here.

Sain One, I do intend to finish our collab. I want to do at least one before my time runs out

The people in the art group I joined, I am deeply sorry. I know I made a commitment. I know I made a promise. But my life, my family. my friends, my problems. I cannot control those right now. Please forgive me but I am leaving.

This piece was made for the group's first release. This piece will be my last and farewell.

I love you all. Thanks.

Will I ever make another one? Who knows. Maybe I'll come back undere another alias next summer. I have in mind a name I like, but

Thanks everyone, esp. the following ppl:

Sain-One, most out of everyone. You inspired me, you were my mentor as I came out of my shell. I can't tell you how much your presence in this community has helped me to grow.

Tammy, Farhod, Everex, Snooger, Neph, Hameed, much of whom inspired me to do more. I'm sorry if I forgot someone, but even if I missed you, I'm still grateful.

One last word, I want to tell you all. The most important thing I learned during my time in this community is that it doesn't matter whether you are a god at art or just someone starting out. Or in the middle. It doesn't matter who loves your work and who doesn't. If you love your work, and you do it because you love to, then you are more of an artist than us all.

For the love of art.

- Josh.
