First off,I made a reels video of this piece yesterday,I posted it on IG but it was going so bad that I deleted it.

This thing with the algorithm and everything related to social media these past months have been really frustrating and to be honest,it makes me feel quite discouraged to keep drawing and posting.

I know mostly of artists with certain amount of followers have been complaining about this lately, but the truth is,it's very frustrating. In my case,I've been working so hard these last years to grow on social media...and all the mess with the algorithms + the pandemic situation..is not easy for anyone.

I'm sorry for complaining about this,it's just..so frustrating guys.

I hope you are well, thank you for supporting me here .
