Art
I love to draw! Though I've been drawing traditionally for years, I first tried digital art during the 2020 Lockdown. I began attempting to learn how to animate in late 2021, and started a YouTube channel shortly afterward to track my progress with that in 2022. I also began taking USD commissions for the first time, which is very exciting! What will the next years bring?
Writing
One focus I have for my online presence is also to share some of my writing. I like to write, and I have been at work over the past year (2022) to develop the world for a story that I hope may possibly be worth telling (Gilded Fall). 2023/2024 is for characters and plot!
MY GOALS:
Overall:
Glorify God. Remember that all things belong to Him.
Begin writing Gilded Fall (2024/2025 estimate-?).
Become proficient in animation and art to a degree I am satisfied with. Isn't that a lifelong goal, isn't it?
2023/2024-specific:
Static Art: Improve general composition, especially dynamic posing and lighting. 4/7/2024 update - I have been working on this. I hope I'm actually improving.
Writing: Plot and story structure for Gilded Fall. 4/7/2024 update - Surprisingly, I've got a decent amount of work done with this.
Writing: Publish several short stories of any kind on-site. 4/7/2024 update - Nothing.
Animation: Study perspective and movement/general studies. 4/7/2024 update - No progress.

Nope. And I'm not a Wings of Fire channel. I just happen to want animation practice, and their MAP calls are generally easy to find :)

Ears absolutely do not belong on dragons, fur doesn't belong on dragons, feathers don't belong on dragons... that's going in my mission statement, if I ever write one up.
