happy pride month everyone! I hope everyone's been having fun :) click spacebar or right arrow! - I'm slowly transitioning into adulthood which is both scary and exciting... I don't think I'll ever be able to fully quit this site though, it's such a huge part of my life despite it no longer playing an active role. Scratch was the one place where I could express myself creatively as a child, in a way that I don't think any other platform would've let me. I definitely felt limited by Scratch back then, but I realise now how much I could do with just some coding blocks and a vision. Scratch's DIY style is truly appreciated in this era of algorithms and streamlined content. In the past year I've been rediscovering my love for drawing after a long creative slump where I struggled with creating art I actually cared about. My goal became to make my drawings marketable to others rather than enjoyable for myself. It wasn't until the support of my friends that I realised the art I loved creating could be loved by others as well... So I just went crazy and started drawing whatever my mind landed on LOL i want to dedicate this summer to improving myself in a variety of areas and one of them is my art techniques. I'm fairly good at doing a bunch of stuff but I'm still messy and unconfident, so I'd benefit from practicing more haha. this will be a study summer fr fr i also just wanna say to anyone reading this: just draw. you dont need to be original, or good, or have any ideas, or have any clue as to what youre doing. just grab a pencil or a pen, some paper and sit down with yourself. doodle aimlessly. draw a pretty face. pour sweat, blood and tears over a hand thats hard to draw. people are so used to just consuming content nowadays that they dont think for even a second to create it themselves. but i promise you, once you do, you'll feel better abt yourself. Go have fun :)
