Hi small text on my computer that signifes you're a human (I hope)! Thank yall for sticking around this year, and shoutout to whatever admin keeps frontpaging my stuff (you're clinically insane in a good way fr tysm) Just wanted to make a small update specifically for my self to keep myself on track but also for anyone else that might wanna peak at what I'm doing.

Although I'm already going to be on vacation for about 3-4 days starting tommorrow, I'm also planning on slowing down the amount of posts/ art I've been making for a few reasons. One personally being that I don't really feel satisfied with the evolution with my artstyle this year currently. It's fine overall, but I don't feel as though I've truly been improving and experimenting with my artstyle enough to my own self satisfaction. Overall I think my artstyle is fine, but just feels stagnant in place, and I feel as though recently I've been going for more aesthetic and simpler pieces then I usually would compared to last year. Another main reason would be that for the projects I want to create and learn in the new future, the amount of time and energy I put into these posts distract and take away a lot of time from projects and learning oppurtunities I want to. I've felt stuck in a place of wanting to start to seriously learn and figure out how to animate and video edit, but have just been so used to this habit/routine of creating fan art most days that all other mediums just kinda get forgotten untill I've finished a drawing/painting that already took hours to make, only for me to take a break for the rest of the day because of the fatigue and tediousness of getting that done. I've been really motivated this month into finally breaking this cycle and start getting into things like animation/tweening and maybe blender and music if given the chance, and I think for that to happen I need to step back and refocus my time and studying to learning these somedays, and other days allowing myself to give myself a break. I'm determined this time to finally study art and try pursueing it as a side thing and maybe in the next few years have a portfolio I'm truly proud of, along with things like animation, editing, and even 3d modeling. But for that to happen in the long term I feel like I need to actually focus on these things, and not rely on social media all the time to constantly feed me ideas I want to create while also wanting to consume that media at the same time, and then result with nothing to show for it.

I know this is a little long lmao, but just wanted to let yall know what my thought process is through that. Obviously I'm not going to be completely gone for long periods of time , but it might take a lot longer inbetween posts because I want to learn and get better at many different things, including my artstyle as one of the main ones. I'm set on trying my best to not get myself too distract through the latter half of this year by mental hurdles, and maybe work it out for the long term.

Either way thank you for reading my college essay lmao, stay tuned :]
