TLDR: I'm taking a break from working on commissions due to a severe health crisis and relocation to Nashville, TN. You can follow my Caring bridge page if you're interested in staying up to date on my health journey:

I wanted to finally post an update here about what's been going on. For those of you who don't know, I have several chronic health issues that will sometimes flare and prevent me from working on my art projects.
A few weeks ago I was hospitalized for one of those flares and due to the severity, I have had to relocate from Memphis, TN to Nashville, TN for specialized treatment.
Due to that, I have decided to take a break from commission work to focus on my health.
I hope to find a solution to working despite the traveling situation, but for now, I'm going to
My new team at Vanderbilt and I are working on developing a long term plan for treatment., but for now a lot of questions about travel and housing remain up in the air.
Due to that, I've decided to take an indefinite break from working on commissions to focus on my health.
I want you all to know how sad I am to be prevented from working on these projects. I have been totally blown away by the positive response to my artwork! Please know that I'm going to be working hard to get better soon so I can continue the work I've promised to start!
Don't worry, even though I will not be working on commissions, I still plan on making art!
I'm currently in the beginning phase of designing some t-shirts to help raise funds for travel and housing expenses.
If you are interested in following my health journey or supporting me and my family, you can follow me here, on Facebook, or find my Caring Bridge page: KJ's Mountain Movers.
I will try and post the link to that on my profile.
And I will continue to keep you all updated here as well, as best I can!
