And while a lot of these are technically good, i felt so disconnected to them because I didn't feel like they were my own. 2020 I started to really break out of my shell. I wasn't afraid to make technically bad art. I made what I wanted and honestly I think it saved me.
between 2017-2019 i basically didnt do much either, outside of the occassional project i'd start and never finish. felt really uninspired and like i was incapable of creating from my own mind. i got stuck doing portraits from photo references.
and then 2014 and beyond happened. for the most part, i stopped drawing entirely. i lost access to my computer and tablets after leaving my parents home unexpectedly, and between 2014-2017 i didn't really create.... anything. 2017 I started doing portraits for friends again.
Getting into 2013, this is where I realllyyyy started to delve into realism more than anything else. A lot of portraits. Some of them i'm even envious of today because I feel like I fell out of practice since then.
okay but 15 year old me (2012) was really getting the hang of realism!! like!! girl!
it seems either 2011 was a black void or i saved all of my art and uploaded it in 2012. 2012 was... interesting. A lot of avatar art but also some really good beginnings in realism. I'll start with the avatar art -
i can't confirm this is my first but it's one of the oldest i could find..... omg.
