HEY, EVERYONE! Or to whoever is reading this.
I somehow left the Gaia Sample Project and writing in these journals for some time. Things weren't the best for me outside of Gaia, but now that is improving, and I want to finish what I've started and keep making people smile through these hard times.
It's officially been a year since I started the sample project (it was on Thanksgiving last year). Looking through the Gaia Art Diary I've drawn all the samples in, the art is ...
How did people want art from me? The coloring is horrendous! Well, that's also because I didn't know how to use color pencils correctly at the time, but just, BLEGH!
I have many more (and better) color pencils, ink pens, and other art supplies now than I did when I made these a year ago. I am considering on remaking the ones I've completed since these samples will look REALLY OFF next to the current day sample I'll produce with the more increased skillset and better supplies. However, I need to be careful not to give myself a huge workload, as that was what got me overwhelmed, stressed, and led me to go on an indefinite hiatus with the project. At the same time, I really want to make better than what I gave to my volunteers.
I also now have alcohol markers! That opens up a wide range of opportunities and beautiful sample work to be had! I'll have to think about this one too.
But for now, we're back in business baby! On my own terms though.
Here's to some fun and smiles, everyone!
