💔
Its with great peace to announce the indefinite hiatus to Blackworm Instruments.
Theres a lot of things that lead to this moment, and its been a decision made with careful consideration against the greatest challenges of all: Time, and Money.
Frankly, a lot has gone on over the last 9 years: 6 shop moves/rebuilds, 7 housing moves, and countless challenges that come between the blur of life itself. The things I've faced made BWI a homing beacon: the light-up buoy in the dark ocean storm. Its me, tooth and nail.
Theres a point in time in everything where you either give it all, or give it up. I've fought the former for so long, that the latter won, and I accept that. Its a decision that comes with peace, grace, and the calm of joy. Not many people can say their instruments made website home pages, magazines, and America's Got Talent. Its something im proud of accomplishing, and im happy i gave it my best swing.
But, alas, the time has come for Blackworm Instruments. After my comissions books are finished, I will be too.
Its been one hell of a ride, and I stand by having the greatest clients in the world.
Til the next go around,
Andrew ❤️
