Merry Crimbo (+ update)
Ah, hi! Sorry I ended up disappearing for 2 months. I'm not entirely back, per se, but I feel I should at least share a few things that have happened, as well as wish you guys a Merry Christmas/Hannukah/Kwanzaa/whatever you dudes celebrate! So, uh. With that being said - happy holidays! So, where the hell have I been all this time? Well, let me tell ya. During November I took a break. One that I shouldn't have really taken but, yano, mental health/zero motivation do be getting in the way of things, lmao. But since the start of this month my life has kind of turned around! I'm finally employed again after so long and I'm loving my new job - it's essentially the same as my last one, only I'm processing returns for a catalogue. Very monotonous stuff, but hell - I'm getting around £300 every week so I'm not complaining at all. 😆 I've been there for nearly 4 weeks now. However, even though I'm finally working - I'm now back stuck at home with Covid so I have to take time off, which I'm
Spoops (also a brief update)
Hey all, Happy Halloween!! 🎃 I have some good news & some bad news - the good news is, I'm hopefully going to have this piece finished by the time I go out today (my friends & I are partying tonight, we're all dressing up too so that should be fun xDD) The bad news is, I was actually going to attempt to record a speedpaint video alongside this project as well. (I don't think I mentioned it until now, but I think I implied it in my last upload?) Now that might not be happening as I've had a few problems with recording as of late.. Some of my later footage has gotten, well, crusty. The framerates are super choppy because working on a bigger piece as well as recording slows down my PC considerably. I still have most of my processes recorded however, but if I want to finish this piece in time tonight then I'm going to have to abandon recording. So, as disappointing as it is for me to reveal that, I'll be trying again on a different project when the time comes. And in all fairness I
Vent.
Okay, so I'm going to be completely honest. I don't really know what to do with myself any more. I've been trying to draw for months & months since I finished Uni, but I always find myself hating everything I sketch. But it's getting to a point now where I just... Don't enjoy art as a whole any more. Which makes me feel really shitty about myself because I want to create, but every time I pick up a pencil or my stylus, I produce nothing but crap. It's just not very appealing to me any more. Like, I don't want to quit? But I also feel completely incapable & it's bringing my overall enjoyment & mood down. On top of that, completely shutting myself off from the world & becoming a very closeted, private person is making me worse. I've messed up so many friendships across multiple platforms, & even with my family, because I've passively been phasing myself out of the picture for the longest time. I feel so annoying or boring & uninteresting or generally unpleasant when it comes to talking
(Forgot to add a title) Life Update
Hoho wow, it's been a long time since I posted anything on here. :O I've mostly been active on Tumblr & Twitter if you can actually believe that! Given how nervous I am about posting in general, I've really been coming back out of my shell a lot more. :O Anyway, I think I forgot to mention that I'd actually passed Uni! I got a higher 2nd with honours - which I'm really surprised about considering how much I messed up with my submissions & my workflow being an absolute trainwreck! :O That just shows that anything is possible if you cheese it enough! xD Real talk though - I'm mega proud of myself, and I've gotta say, trying to book for my graduation is an absolute nightmare!!! :/ Idk what other major news I have, but I'll share a few things that I've been doing recently; - I've been practicing some sketching techniques! It turns out that drawing from the feet-upwards helps a lot with looser posing - I've been drawing from the head-downwards for years & let me tell you, it certainly
