A word of thanks, and a time of mourning (Patreon)

Once again, I must thank you patrons for your continued financial support; words cannot express how much it means to me. But, this month I must ask a favour for all of you, and give me a couple of days before I send out the August rewards, as I was dealt a huge blow just last night. 

Friday morning, at about 6:40 am, my younger brother was involved in a car accident. Details are scarce at the moment, but on review of the photo and news posts, it looks like he was t-boned by a car turning left at an interesection, spun out, and rear ended a light pole at what looks like to be a high rate of speed. His injuries were very extensive and had to be extracted from the vehicle. He died at the hospital before I could get there.

I am managing to cope as I usually do; zoning out and bury myself in art, my only true release, but my family does not have that luxury. I only ask that you send kind words of support for them, as they most likely need it more than I; especially my mother. I hope that in due time the hurt will stop for all of us, especially her.

Once again, thank you all.
