First drawing of the year finished! January is Wynuary, as is tradition, and I wanted to add to the weirdly large pile of "Wyn exploring the dark with a flashlight" drawings. Mine has some shitty layered fog though, ooooh!

Yeah, first time painting fog, and I think it came out...interesting. I used the bleeding watercolor brush in FireAlpaca and then smudged it. There's five different layers of darkness here, some on top of the boy, some underneath. It does give it a nice sense of depth, at least. I kinda like it.

I'm on the fence about posting my art out on the big sites again. On one hand, I am seriously proud of where I've gotten and what I've accomplished in the past three years (check out my old attempts at Wyn if you dare), and waving it in people's faces always feels like a good idea, but then my emotions about art get complicated when other people, inferiority, and social anxiety get brought into the picture. My new year's resolution is that if I'm not wholeheartedly into the idea on my own, I'm not doing it, so I think I'm happy just posting them here to the journal. Keeps this place going! If my heart changes, I'll just have a nice backlog of stuff to post is all.

I am working on stuff in the background, at the moment a blog post and trying to get back on the art horse. Trying to leverage the eternal slow season at work for writing journal entries and blog posts so I can focus on stuff I can't do standing around waiting for customers or shit to clean up at home, like more art or playing FreQuency. I had a bit of a rough patch at the end of last week into this one, but I'm alright now. More to come!
