song: narisobile - wonderful★opportunity! space/click sentimental note and things regarding my future at the bottom if you’d like to read! len yearly redraw!!! i got this done on dec 31st, i’m sharing this late here 1.] polished piece! 2.] sketch 1 - i liked the pose and perspective but when cleaning it up i was having a lot of trouble so i just abandoned it 3.] sketch 2 - i got to the coloring stage, but i wasn’t liking it a lot so i abandoned this one too. it felt too static for me, like i knew i could do better 4.] layout for the actual piece now lol 5.] midway 6.] done :D 7.] 2022 8.] 2023 9.] 2024 10.] art summary for the whole year! much more graphic design-heavy this time around, style is the same-ish as last year i’d say super pleased with how this year’s redraw turned out! i wanted to go a bit more retro/vintage and i’d say i accomplished that :) - note thank you to everyone who’s stuck around throughout the years to see my art and its growth! i’m very proud of the community i’ve built that is my follower base on here, and even though i’ve essentially outgrown this site it’ll always have a place in my heart. i’m not officially leaving but i’ve been going more and more inactive. i’ve been posting on here since i was 11 and i turn 17 in less than two weeks. i’ve had a lot of ups and downs throughout these past years but scratch has always been one of the constants. i’ve met so many awesome people on here and i’m forever grateful to have been given so much support <3 i’ve been grinding my portfolio for art school recently, and i’m leaning towards becoming a graphic design major and illustration minor (or major, depending on the school i choose to attend)! i’ve unintentionally built up a huge stack of graphic design work the past 6-7 (it is 2026 do not say it) months with my magazine-style character illustrations and vintage album cover series. it genuinely never occurred to me that they were perfect for graphic design and when i realized i was like omg i’m currently aiming for RIT, MICA, and SCAD (in that order)! i’ll probably apply for RISD as well but my chances are kinda low lol. i’m bracing myself hard for the next year and a half bc thinking about college is so stressful it’s so crazy BUT i know it will eventually pass and i’ll end up where i’m meant to be anyways i hope you have a wonderful day and ty for reading :)
