Art Summary 2022 (Patreon)
Content
Special Patreon only note
The stuff below the line is what I'll post to most sites (if it fits)
Thank you everyone for your support this year! It's been my best year so far for Patreon support which helped a lot. Especially during the times of Portland (it's a very expensive city). It's been quite the ride (literally at points). I was able to invest in an IPad which was been great and created the ability for time lapses and 3d you see! Hopefully that trend of growth keeps going so I can invest more time and money into others projects. :3c Like 3D animation. Or 2D-types of animation although I still need to figure out how to make some stuff, like the league of legend style animations, look nice with my works
Got a lot of directions to take and works to do. All thanks to you! I hope you've enjoyed my work as much as I! >:3 We'll make this Patreon even better for 2023

2022 Summary
The 9th year of my artwork being created by myself. Almost a decade haha!
My previous art summaries can be found here
I actually have more than just finalized drawings this year. So that alone is an improvement in my eyes. I enjoyed drawing most of what I drew this year. After last year, I'm glad things improved in the world overall (relatively). 2024 will probably be a shit show in the USA so let's hope 2023 is amazing!
- I made a lot more comic-y ideas this year. I didn't produce finalized comics as much though. Which is fine in my book although I will need to finish stuff so I can make the money haha
- My sketches have been constantly better. I still absolutely do my scribbles but it doesn't take as much effort nowadays to translate sketches into workable pieces. I'm probably at a place where I could experiment with my sketch technique and push it farther. We'll see! Definitely a lot of opportunities to try
- I actually do 3D fairly fast. Still slow but not as slow as I thought I'd be. Even pumped out a cartoony model in just a few hours which is impressive!
- My range of themes this year were a lot more broad but limited at the same time. There's kinks I didn't really express in finalized works and even some in sketch works. Gotta work on pushing that again. Also do vanilla stuff cause although I love the kinky shit, xD a lot more people like the vanilla stuff... and werewolves.
- My range of mediums was quite the opposite.
There were 2D illustrations, 2D Animation, 3D modeling, Web game development and VR game development, video editing, and a few traditional works sprinkled in. If I pull through next year, my report should include my normal works, 3D animations, User game assets, hopefully a VRChat map, SFW Videos, and possibly 3D prints. There's a lot for sure hahaha
- My color use was a lot better this year. I had less dull looking pictures. More confidence is in saturation.
- I traveled in each direction across the USA. Was even my first real time losing some major safety nets via distance. Seeing the world more always is kinda boost of confidence in it of itself life wise. That can feed back into art. Near the December holidays is when my money numbers dip (people are spending on gifts and travel instead). I am glad there's a very real path to ensuring this is my job for a long time and that the state of the world hasn't destroyed that ability.
I didn't hit 2K a month, but for the majority of the year I had a sustainable income for Michigan. With all the stuff I listed before, I'm hoping to finally get that 2K number constantly. Being able to invest in tools like the IPad I feel improved my work a lot. Having ensure stability and investment space would be amazing. Just gotta get there >:3
- I need to bully zasz into teaching me Spanish. I'm much better at being able to read Spanish on twitter and what not but not great at translating my works in a reasonable time. =3= I need to get better so I can do that for good practice while making my work more accessible to Spanish speakers.
- I also need to increase my beaws ʕ·ᴥ·ʔ output. :c How will the bears survive if I don't draw them
I feel like a lot of the summary needs to deal more about my life than just the artwork itself. Cause a lot of life influences what my artwork outputs are haha. But that can be for another time
If you wanna help me hit that 2K monthly goal in 2023 :3 Sharing my patreon with your friends!
I got a SFW which I'll be working on too
A lot to accomplish in 2023. I hope y'all join me on this ride and enjoy the travels uwu
