Just over an hour until midnight here for me, so I figured Iβd post my little personal new years drawing now. 2023 was a mixed bag for me, but overall I can say Iβm really proud of myself. Back in January, making it to December felt literally impossible, so Iβm glad Iβm here to celebrate the new year and Iβm glad Iβm happy. I have a feeling 2024 will be a good one.
I also threw in my 2023 art summary, I do one every year and itβs fun to share! Iβm pleasantly surprised looking at the complete summary. I feel like I didnβt draw as much this year, Iβve mostly taken time to focus on myself, re pivoting my life and my goals, with the plan to shift career I really pumped the breaks on work. I remember thinking to myself that my art summary wouldnβt be very good this year because of all these factors, but looking at it Iβm super happy with the work I have mad this year. Iβm in a tricky situation with art right now, Iβm horribly burnt out and doing my usual work related stuff feels mind numbing, so the pieces Iβve drawn that have been genuinely passion filled feel even more special to me. Really pushed myself out of my comfort zone with art this year, learning to draw humans, trying thinner linework here and there, itβs all been super beneficial. Iβm rambling now so Iβll wrap it up, but I do wanna say thank you all for your support in 2023 of me and my work, I know I havenβt been the best this past year in terms of content and what not, but Iβm ever so grateful for the love and community weβve built here. I wouldnβt be anywhere without you all and for that Iβm eternally in your debt π€ happy new year everyone!! π
