Art Summary - Blog Posts

2019 was the year I finally started using digital as my primary way of drawing rather then traditional. I think I improved a lot throughout the year.

Let's hope 2020 has a lot in store for us and we can all improve

I have so wish you all a Happy New year hope it's a great one🤗🤗💕💕🎉🎉

Art Summary 2023

Oopsies, I almost forgot to upload this here... 😅

2024 is here! 🎉

💛 Wow, 2023 was such a crazy year for me. Lots of changes have happened in my life this past year, such as finally getting an official job as an animator (a dream come true)! Another thing I am really happy about is that this past year I made lots of artwork I really like. I have been trying my best to improve in little ways here and there with my art and I think it shows! ( •̀ ω •́ )✧

💙 Some of my 2024 goals include: 1. Finally wrapping up pre-production and publicizing at least one of my big projects I have been working on for several years. 2. Push myself to finish projects that I start, or do things that I want to start. 3. Possibly get some more fun opportunities as an artist/animator! 4. Do some cool animated work/projects 5. Continue to just improve and not be so hard on myself. 6. Grow my online audience c:

💜 Thank you so, so much to everyone who continues to support me and my artistic journey! It means a lot that there are people who care even a little bit about me/my work to keep watch from time to time~

2023 is on the way... out of no where...

🖤 I was getting pretty bummed out thinking I wouldn't be able to post this until next year. On top of dealing with many current physical and mental issues, I just recently got sick with Influenza A, and the past few days have been me in bed watching too much YouTube, lol. I was smart though because I actually made this in advance so I could just post it around the end of the month.

💛 This year included my final year in college, which I graduated with my BFA (focus in animation). Being finally out of school has been very interesting so far. Sometime later I got accepted into an Internship, which is awesome. However, I am now at a point in my life in which I need to figure out what I want to do with my artistic journey... and I have been thinking about it non-stop since graduation. Truth is, I still don't 100% know what I wanna do, and I think that's fine. I just know that I have passion projects that I need to get out to the public eventually, and many things I wanna try to do one day like uploading YouTube vids or creating a more involved community. Actually, my presence online this year has been insane. I think this year I finally hit 1k+ followers on Deviantart. I also started to grow more of a presence on Instagram and Tumblr, which is pretty cool. 

🧡 Some of my 2023 goals include: 1. I would really like to finally buckle down and upload even more original work. Fan art of course will still be around... especially Undertale xD 2. I want to work on improving and creating an even more visually appealing art style... or just play around more with some idk. 3. Maybe finally upload some YouTube vids.. or start on Tiktok. 4. Do some cool animated work 5. Continue to just improve and not be so hard on myself 6. Annndd whatever else I forgot to write down here~

💜 Thank you to everyone who continues to support me and my artistic journey, really, it means a lot that there are people who care just enough about me/my work to keep watch from time to time~

My Art Summary of 2023, along with a Art Vs Artist of this year

Most of these I posted publicly on here except for July's; which is a practice drawing of textured colored images featuring Rin Kagamine.

The template of the art summary is by @/taxkha (it's actually for 2022 but I edited because. Yes)

[ Ramble under the Read More. ]

I think Tumblr is the only place I can freely talk, aside from Discord with friends.

Honestly? I feel this year I've been lacking as an artist.

I draw full pieces once or twice a month while I see others post more art than me, sometimes posting doodles they made in their free times.

My doodles are traditional. I prefer posting digitally, but I do want to doodle digitally more. But why does everytime I think "I'm gonna doodle this thing that'll be done in a couple minutes" and then I'll spend almost an hour on it??

My once or twice a month postings are what I'm ashamed about, honestly. I wish I could draw more after two or three days of finishing my previous work. Was it tiredness? Was it laziness? Was it executive dysfunction?

I do think there's fear. There's a linger of it as if I can't draw this artwork exactly like my mental vision. I never had this before. Why now suddenly? As well as practice to draw something new or something I have to master again?

I need to step back. I'm trying to stop comparing my work from other artists, it feels so relieving. Why compare myself to another person as I and them are two completely different people? With two different perspectives?

I did talked about my posting schedules comparing others just now. I am still working on this personal problem. Comparing art is one thing, but comparing another's success might be a whole nother fuckery.

Of course I do find inspiration from others. Though... I feel a lot of the artists I am inspired by are so... contrasting. I should compile my art inspos in a little folder lmao

I'm not sure about the "Reblogs > Likes" will stay though. Nowadays I feel I don't give a fuck anymore, I just wanna draw and post art. I saw that and go back frustrated at the number of likes and reblogs/shares lmaoooo; I'm working that though.

Perhaps an artist's way of thriving is to thrive with other artists. I am grateful of the friends I made in Discord servers, especially the OC server. It's also the same server I participated in am art telephone known as Tewephone. Again, I am very happy to participate with my friends ^^

On a much less important note, I need more OCs. I need more. My brain keeps giving me character ideas and I feel like making characters. I need more non-fan OCs though. But still. Need more OCs.

I am holding onto the hope I still contain in my heart. 2023 has been a ton of ups and downs (a lot of downs to be honest but whatever). I wish my friends, my family and everyone reading this a happy and hopeful 2024.

Happy New Years, everyone! 🎉🎊

2024 Summary

Starts in May because I drew nothing earlier.

Last year (I barely even remember those times) I was so burned out by drawing, I used to put too much effort in it and then not be satisfied anyway, so I snapped and decided to not draw ever again. 2023 summary was uneventful. I've lost faith in my skills.

Even a year into the fandom, I didn't believe I was able to draw these characters and I didn't want to (I was scared). I decided that I'll be known there solely by my writing... Until one day I actually tried and, wait a minute... I CAN?????

I'm still not in a warm relationship with drawing as I used to be back in the day, I still don't draw for enjoyment but only for the end result. But I'm glad that I'm welcomed here with what it is. 💔

Happy new year!!!
