Hiya my name's Ryan! :D

I'm a high school student, working towards going into the diverse field of animation! I'm still developing a style so bear with me please. Besides drawing, I enjoy gardening and baking, as well as playing video games.

Hey guys! It's been.... well almost a year. In the last forever, I managed to figure out where I was going with my art. I'm really happy with where I'm going, and I think I'm really starting to find myself. I've finally made a new tapas account, and as promised I wanted to tell you all. It's called Cafetoile, if you want to follow the series I have up and the series I may start soon. Thank you all so much for everything, hopefully I'll see you on Cafetoile! :)

Oh boy....

Okay so, first off, I'd like to apologize for my absence, as well as the comic that never got posted. I don't even remember what happened to it.

Second, I think I'm going to restart from square one. Hell, I might even make a new account. I'm not happy with my content here, and I posted a lot of stuff involving fandoms that I no longer want to associate myself with. I also want to attempt to create something completely new. Like I said, I wanna start over.

Third of all, I don't think I'm in the mindset to create regular content. I've been slacking a lot lately, trying to keep up with the things I need to do while keeping my mental health in check.

Tapas is a wonderful site, and you guys have been absolutely amazing, but I really need a fresh start. I'll let you all know if I create a new account.

Sincerely,

SockMonkey

Silly monkey,
Do what you want,.. but i dont think its needed to start all over
But do you want people to call you Monkey, katie or Ryan?

I agree that you can refresh your brand/style without having to start from scratch, but I also understand if you want to completely disassociate for whatever reason.

Don't stress about content, and do take care of yourself. :)

I'm really sorry I haven't posted in ages... I'm still working on the drawing tablet situation. I may post some stuff on Oodles of Doodles in terms of stuff I've been working on for my portfolio lately, but things will be a little slow anyways because I'm trying to get ready for post secondary. My New Years resolution will be to update much more often, especially since I'm coming up on two years here...

Hey guys I'm so sorry I haven't updated in forever! I lost my tablet pen about 5 days ago... working on a traditional comic though so??? We'll see how it goes.

Good thing about traditional is that when you lose your pen/pencil, it's a lot cheaper to replace.

Unfortunately this last week has been extremely busy with family and such... I don't think I'll be able to have any comics scheduled for the summer. I'm really sorry guys, but that means a hiatus until August. Thank you all for understanding! <3

Staffing at a summer camp =/= Vacation but thank you! At least I'm not at school so I guess that counts for somewhat of a vacation LOL

Hey guys sorry for short hiatus, exams are coming up and I got a project dumped on me last minute but I'm back! I'll be updating Oodles of Doodles momentarily, and I'll try and find something for It's A Small World soon after.

Also, I'm going to work on a couple extra comics to be scheduled throughout the summer, since I'll be gone for 7 weeks and won't be able to post much, if at all. Hopefully I can come up with three or four comics to schedule during that time, as well as maybe scheduling the odd doodle in between.

Thanks guys <3
