Oh, this is such a Significant Question- I Always wonder if I'm able to give a Good answer... There was many things that Helped in Welcome Home's creation, as well as My eventual return to it a few years Later! I will give you one Answer- (Just imagine How long this would be if I gave them all!)
When I returned to Welcome Home, I was in a very Dark Place- ( In a way, I am still in a difficult Place, but I am Working Towards leaving my situation with this newfound Support!) I thought that I Could not Keep going and that I would find myself Trapped in a place that Had hurt me so much, Emotionally, Mentally, Physically. While many of us Were confined to our homes, I remembered Welcome Home and my work within it- I saw it as a Opportunity to explore my Own feelings as an Individual who felt very lost and didn't want to Be here Anymore- But it also motivated me to Explore my Capabilities as an artist!
I wanted to move beyond digital illustrations, I feel like Before I had felt Trapped in this medium and Unsatisfied with my work as a result. I know you are Never Truly confined, but I had been Convinced that I could only Moderately excel at one thing! But Welcome Home motivated me to move Outside- I learned Web Design, sewing, building, Sculpting, animation- I still continue to learn, I imagine I will continue the More and More of Welcome Home I share with you! (The Collective you, the one Wally knows!) I hope I get Better, I can't wait to see Myself Improve! (Or Have downfalls! I'm excited, I think, In just the act of creating!)
I'm sorry it is so Wordy, I was motivated by your Extremely round and Charming sweet and Doe-eyed Barnaby's who I Want to cup in my Hands a bit like a small Chick- Perhaps a Hen- This is a Barnaby his mother Would love! (Which is probably all Anyways) Howdy too, He is so lovely to me, Thank you for making Him laugh!
