My art summary 2023
Thanks for the template: iloveblackteaTwT (DeviantArt)
I almost forgot about the art summary honestly
It's hard to analyze, but anyway the top goal for this year is... to draw even more Kaveh🥳
Aaand my 2022's version for fun
Guess who had a shite art year? Ironically though I did have my 2nd best ArtFight year with 11 pieces & at least I was marginally more inspired to write than last year.
Thank you all for sticking around, also for the zines, which have arguably been my focus in 2023, so — here's to 2024 ✨
2023 art summary!! im actually surprised i had this many lined/colored drawings 😅 thanks to all who followed and supported me this year!!!!
some misc thoughts under the cut
this is the first year since i was in school (2015??😬) where ive made an effort to draw almost every day and... it feels good? im trying not to be hard on myself for not being as far along as i feel i should be. i think i'm making some real progress and im happy with how my style is developing.
while 75% of the stuff i draw stays in the rough sketch phase for eternity i feel like ive developed a good process for cleaning up sketches and applying color and rough shading.
really going to try and work on anatomy, dynamic posing and diversifying body types in the new year!! (also posting... like at all...)
2023 art summary! its kind of low quality but whatever- i hope i can continue to improve in this new year~
Так и не успел доделать полноценку за декабрь, но будь что будет 🤠🫱🏻🫲🏼
Я не гуру сентиментальных речей и пожеланий на грядущий год поэтому тихонечко оставлю вам эту картинку и свалю в туман 💋💋
HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS ⭐️🎇🥳❤️🎀🌌❣️
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~

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! 🎉🎊
Art summary for the year, and if I may say so myself I don't think I did half bad
