Project accomplishments:
- Fugitive Eagleton has begun progress! I did say I was going to take it slow for the rest of the year, but I can assure you I'll begin 2024 retaking the project where I left off! In hopes of finally having ideas for Part 2 Chapter 2. However, I promise to finish the story by the end of 2024 -or at the very least, Early 2025.
- CRiTORA: Abnormal not only has been rebooted, but it has also been completed! With a more lighthearted and comedic story, Daydreaming Birdie and I have given this years-old idea a definitive shape. It has done amazing in his Wattpad, so be sure to read it there, in Quotev, and DeviantArt!
- Reckon Crystal 2 was officially announced! I know I haven't started polishing Reckon Crystal's story -as I have yet to have a better story structure and continue polishing my writing, but the next part of Earthstar and Lancerrow's adventure awaits! Final reminder its Prologue and Part 1 will launch on January 5th.
Personal goals:
- Thanks to my painting classes and Sacktoon, I have uncovered the full extent of my skills: Before then, I hardly did traditional art as I barely knew how each type of paint was used. I've learned, not only how they work, but I've put them into action! Sure, watercolors are less slow and easier to manage as I have brushes with water cartridges, but knowing acrylic and oil helps! (I just haven't painted much with oil because the weather hasn't been great)
- I've traveled to Italy! This was a huge step in my horizons, not only because it was a different country, but because it was a different continent! I don't think I'll ever share pictures of my stay aside from the drawings I've made over there -but painted when I got home, but I can assure you it was a blast.
- I've made my first Kickstarter contribution! Why is this important? Because it marks the first instance in which I monetarily support a person -or a group of people- I follow. As soon as I open a new bank account, I'll continue -even if sporadically and in smaller payments- giving support to other things I follow.
What's next for 2024?
- 2024 cover artwork theme: Digital.
- I will try composing more original songs: the repertoires of 2022 and 2023 have been mostly remixes. I might like doing them, but they're not what will represent me should I catch a studio's attention. That doesn't mean I won't compose any remixes in 2024, but I'll do my best to keep them to a minimum.
- Efforts to improve accessibility across my sites will continue development, but I still must warm up slightly.
- Who knows what else may I have in store...
Additionally, here's my 2023 Art Summary! Not everything listed here got uploaded here, but I'll try to make next year different when it comes to activity!
Again, thank you for a wondrous 2023!!
