Well, I know I don't write very much generally but my 2023 was leaps and bounds a better year than 2022 for personal and artistic reasons.It started out in the doldrums but things improved dramatically in February with a new job, and then later with new friends I made, particularly online. Nise, Floofi21 (Chip the Pichu) and Ray to name a few. More ideas poured in for commissions, and particularly into my own tastes and kinks most peeps know me for. The result has made me more open in expressing my kinks, and hardly any backlash surprisingly. The only drawback was maybe too many "tail pullers" tugging Sparks at once, whether it was for ideas/requests/RPs or whatever. Some didn't understand that ideas ≠ requests. This led to me venting, but it marked a step forward with friends old and new made this year. Particularly the friendships with YarnFeathers and Nise which grew strong this year, on the level of expressing my darker side and interests. We became Team Sparks in the process!Relationships were steady through the year, and work went very well to the point of securing my full time conversion from contractor, effective January 2nd! My plan for 2024 is to find more balance with work and personal time, enhancing friendships I've built, and continue to build upon my interests and express them as an artist. I don't mind if this ends up destroying long standing friends that only see one side of me. It won't involve changing Sparks Pichu in a radical way, neither appearance nor character wise. No, he still won't evolve canonically but he may appear transformed in other forms you haven't seen in a while or at all yet! On the more professional art side, I will update prices for commissions very soon, so maybe this is a last callout to this years prices. I never asked, but wondered if a SubscribeStar/Fanbox thing would be worth looking into these days, given more do wonder what my behind-the-scenes work look like and may want to see more exclusive content from me. I feel that putting a paywall would be a turnoff, but these days I think more peeps who do commissions tend to do this for certain drawings. I plan on making some gifts for friends and art for pokemon days, such as Yamper day on January 8th! A calendar of pokemon days would be helpful ^^Stay tuned for more projects and I wish you all the best for the new year!Posted using PostyBirb
It's been some time since my last update but looking forward to pichu day coming on October 2nd, just a few days away! ^-^The drawing will be a bit of a surprise but is heavily inspired by a decade old piece I've been meaning to do lately!All is well on my side still, and look forward to posting more art very soon :3Posted using PostyBirb
If there's something about my art, whether it's the style, anatomy, posing, coloring, or similar - what would you recommend to make it better?Just asking for constructive advice here, and personally I think there are times I'm lax with quality but I don't mind helpful tips. If anything, suggest a different creature or Pokemon to draw XDDon't be afraid or shy here. I promise I won't shock or bite ya ;3Posted using PostyBirb
