Hey, I don't know if you're aware or not, but there's a tshirt design of your art on Redbubble under the HnG tag and I just wanted to let you know as well as double check whether or not you're the one who posted it or if someone else stole it and is profiting off of it.

Honestly, I'm still struggling on what the style of my art would be. After I finished this piece, I felt amazed and happy that I produced it because it's not a theme that I'd usually draw, but after a couple of days, I feel like I'm back at point A: the experimental struggle . . .
