Description

IT'S BEEN A YEAR. lots of fun stuff and lots of hell. didn't do much sketchbook stuff compared to other years but i think i finally like where my style is going. that could change very quickly though lol. the written monthly summaries are like... abt art but also mixed with some personal stuff

January - Don't remember much but I sure was glad I was done that daily drawing challenge I did in 2016
February - working hard on school work
March - more working on school work... second year was pretty good bc i was really on top of stuff
April - 'I'M SO FUCKING TIRED RELEASE ME FROM SCHOOL' i think i drew a lot of stuff out of stress here... like hamatora.. it was a very busy month bc i was also doing freelance?? and producing all my stickers for AN so i could print em in time at school 
May - ANIME NORTH CON CRUNCH... produced many prints and other merch things. anime north was a fun and exhausting time 
June - I think i spent this month just playing breath of the wild. for like at least 3 weeks lmao... i regret nothing.... i had some time to spare so i redraw some kagepro
July - VFAC... at this point the summer void became kind of painful.. vfac completely drained me and i failed at working on any portfolio stuff
August - otakuthon in montreal was pretty awesome. everything after that was end of summer void hell
September - extreme art block and no motivation, probably the worst i've ever had. i think i literally did no homework or anything for the first 3 weeks of school
October - slowly recovering from september and end of summer. i had fun drawing OC stickers!
November - everything picked up from there and i felt suuuper great. tired from... various things but feeling good abt myself. producing artwork became SO MUCH easier than before and i realized how bad my mental state was in months and years before
December - it went by pretty fast... riding a confidence high, feeling like a much more secure person. I was mostly just catching up on work from the strike. 

I would say the first half of this year was awesome bc i had many opportunities & I was doing well at school. :) and then the  second half was a punch in the face with summer void and 3rd year, and then it ended on a real confidence boost. I'm thankful for all the good and bad that came from this year. 2017 kept throwing the punches till the very end, but I'm still feeling pretty good! I think 2018 is gonna be a great year. 

Here's to an excellent 2018!!
