Other free description
I think that the number of people who own a brush will decrease due to the coronavirus.
How much longer will you be able to produce your own brushes? I'm not sure.
I would like to make it as long as possible.
The coronavirus has affected me a lot... I've been thinking a lot... I think the next few years will be tough.
