Well, it's that time of year again, where you reflect back to past pieces that you did over the year, track progress, and see how you've grown as an artist. For me the art hasn't gone much of anywhere lately. Of course, I still missed a couple of months, but it was around May where I dropped this silly expectation I had for myself, I don't have to have the throughput of some other artists, nor should I be trying to crank out the highest quality work every time, because in the end, whether it's a colored sketch or a fully rendered lineless piece, it all looks good. Just look at the two munchkins down there, I should've done Calahenus lineless, but I kept the sketch because it looks good ^^

This year though has been more about recuperation than the art anyway, going from the broken state left behind from working in an oppressive environment throughout a pandemic, to a mended state where I work in a place where I'm appreciated and treated like a person. Art is fun to do again, I'm not filled with resentment, I'm actually happy, and not just faking it. It's been a good year all things considered ^w^ haven't been able to say that in a couple of years now.

As for what's going on here... Rhody's been stuck in a place called the "Mesh Network", dating back to January from this piece, where under the revealing light of the Process he slaved away in his broken state to prevent from losing more pieces of himself. Eventually thanks to some help from external sources he regained all his pieces, and takes a jump of faith into Calahenus' arms to bring him home before the Process wipes him out and everything within the Mesh Network.

I don't think I can make yearly roundups any more grandiose than this, whatever happened to just slapping 12 images up in a grid and calling it a day ,w,

Anyways, Happy Holidays, and I'll see you all next year! ^w^
