Read on Twitter
4 years ago today, my life in the art world changed forever.
It was the day I met @Ron_Raccoon_ over on DeviantArt.

In just a short time Ron would become my best friend on the internet, and we mostly had a good time, though at the time my anxiety and nerves got the better of me using social media, almost entirely. Despite this, I stayed in touch with Ron.
Last year however, things went south with me and Ron. I had decided to move on from him. At the same time though, I very nearly moved on from my arts, and not for the first time.
Then, I decided to change my characters' design and give Twitter one more go.

For the first 4 1/2 months of @TropicalMuskrat I pretty much ignored Ron in all honesty, by muting him. Last August I was able to chat with Ron on Telegram, but it didn't end well.
Another month and a half passed by, when I said to myself.....

What was I thinking!
There was really no point of me ignoring Ron Raccoon after everything we've done for each other up until early last year.

And now, May 24 has come once again (though it's the 25th over here now). Despite my circumstances last year which I have now left behind, one thing has stayed the same.
I would not be here alive today as a cartoonist with a whole lot of friends, without @Ron_Raccoon_!

Over the next 5 or 6 days up until his birthday next Saturday, I will be posting in this thread, sketches and drawings I've made for Ron over the 4 years that I've known him.
I will also take the time to make a couple of gifts for Ron!
