due to the state of industry and indie I've been teaching myself that art dosnt have a finite level of 'finish'. I started posting sketches, and leaving them that way. Not everything has to have polish, and thats part of the many magics of human made REAL art.

Also real talk, please extra consider shopping small this year. Doesn't have to be me! There's so much cool stuff from artists and other creators. Avoid the big box stores. Especially Amazon, Target, Walmart and Home Depot.

sometimes you gotta fight that shit tooth and nail, but i PROMISE you its worth it. hell sometimes idk how TO study, so ill just trace over a manga panel or smth, delete it, then redraw it myself. gets the juices flowing

when your art studies takes you away from the smut for a while so you can actually update your main account again
