I'm really sorry to hear about this. And I hope this isn't digging into a wound or anything, but I wanted to comment because I really enjoy your art and love seeing new pieces, even if I don't check up on your art as often as I could.

They definitely handled stuff poorly. And thing is, I think your work *does* have a degree of consistency. I can tell your pieces are yours, you have a definite style. I think your art has improved over time, but all the pieces I've seen of your art from over the years show skill and effort. As for "brand" - I'd say that's your style. I can't describe it well but I know it when I see it.

Wishing you the best doing your thing.

I look forward to catching up on fics soon, too!
