2012 Art Summary

I finally did my last year's summary... and I have some things to say... Some may not agree, but I'm the one seeing this

I am not proud... I lost color with my art... I barely do digitals... I lose motivation extremely easily and it eats me. I don't like that I barely did progress last year... at all, I don't see much change. I was at my art peak in July with that mawshot... and that is everything I've done that I've been really proud of... I've been proud before but that is the most proud I've squeezed out of a piece of my art. The rest of my art stayed in paper

But changing from a view... IT'S STILL ART, colorless, monochrome, sketch... it's still art, bro. But still, the change that I only see view-able is my fursona's developement... But still, I've been trying newer things each time with my digitals, even though it's really hard for me to do a full colored drawing, I barely did fully shaded pics either. I do want to but my motivation is a really big problem.

ALSO, a really big honor though... I said before that my motivation has been decaying. At the end of November, I thought for sure I was going to stop with the digitals, I didn't see myself improving the way I wanted... But as I thought that, I met a really wonderful and special person in one of my streams... He was there all along but I stood up to know the guy better, and one thing he has thought me... I can't stop... I had my momentum in my art still there, and that special person unlocked it. I am not in progress... I AM drawing every single day unlike before... Quickies, just lineart for now... but I am sure I'll be drawing colored and then fully shaded drawings later. This person... Sorry for my language... But he really kicked my ass into drawing, a LOT... Compared to before... He revived me

This person is Please, PLEASE thank this guy as much as I am thanking him now and every day. He is still kicking me up nearly every day, even as he's on a vacation, he still manages to send me a quick message. Messages like "Draw Lone on a unicycle in less than 10 minutes, GO! DO ETT!!11!!1!" But that, even though I've felt horrible to suddenly pick my pencil while I'm in the middle of something (Yes, I admit it was tough for me _{I'm such a lazy ass} ) ... that... Has worked wonders... I've developed a new cartoony style as you can see in some examples in my gallery and art blog over at Tumblr. I've been drawing every single day, on my sketchbook and on my PC, as I said before. Those might not seem big for you, but It's a hell of an improvement for me compared to the old me. With the help of Techybro and all this motivation, I can improve this year. I've improved this little but still big in one month... Imagine 12... Wow... God bless this guy, I'm gonna cry, be right back...

...

Okay yeah, thank you, Tech~
