June already!?
Shoutouts to Raja RD, Hurf of Derf, and Ivan Rivas for the 5K runner sub/resub, and Scott Malin for the 10K runner sub! And a big thank you to everyone who continues to support my art on here! I'm about to get a new drawing tablet to match with the new pc I got recently, and this will be a great help toward it!
May was quite a month! We wrapped up cheeryeet part 2, and PopCon was super invigorating for the artist spirit! I had a great time getting all sorts of artist alley merch and autographs, and getting to meet and gift art in person to some of my fellow artist peers! Got a bunch of these prints proudly displayed on my wall here:
So what's next? I've been trying to work on getting my social media posting back up to speed, I need to actually promote my art more in spite of every site having their problems. And I just missed sharing my art in general! There's a lot of art on here that's yet to be posted out there, though looking back on that art is making me want to do minor refinements here and there. Cheeryeet part 1 for instance will finally make its debut on the newly reopened twitter;
But that's all art y'all on here have already seen. What's the new stuff I'm working on? Well sort of related, all that art up on that bulletin board earlier got me wanting to have more art displayed in my room. And after testing out my printer and seeing that it aint too shabby, I've gone totally nuts printing out more art from myself, and art from others that I've had gathered from over the years. Now I want to make more and more of these corkboard collages to fill my room with! Feels like something I should have been doing a long time ago.
I'm hoping that by doing this, I'm filled with the motivation to make more art that I want to have proudly displayed to look at on a regular basis, reawaken that primal 'drawings on the fridge' part of the brain. And also looking at how much art others had made of my Moonhawk/smiley characters is making me realize 'man people did like this stuff. I really should do more!'.
In short, this month I'll probably be working on some touchups on pasts sets in prepping them to be posted to wider socials (bunyeet part 2 mainly), but as for new stuff I'm thinking it's probably a good time to do something moonhawk-related again. And hopefully set up with the new tablet on the way goes well! We'll see how the month goes!
