Hi! It has been a year!
Time flew by this year and lots of things happened, so before I’ll get into my brand sparkly new deathline I would like to recap the previous one.
The goals of 2014 were:
• Improve line quality
• Improve on anatomy
• Travel to places
• Be healthy
• Excercise
2014 was a rollercoaster, up and down all the time, it was crazy. Even though my memory is fuzzy how the first months passed by I remember panicking and writing a dissertation about Frank Frazetta for my graduation. Later on I was working on a final major project, the project consisted of me writing, illustrating and making a book. That was a success at the end, there was an exhibition and I finished the university.
Yay, right? Not really.
Graduating meant I needed to find freelance gigs fast, even thought I was preparing for it beforehand and started looking two months before actually graduating it was more difficult than I thought. At the same time my exercising and eating healthy kicked into the top gear, I started jogging and exercising every day and eating healthier. The line quality didn’t improve as much as I would like to, anatomy is on the same boat. Not getting enough freelance had me not travelling as I wanted, but hey, sometimes I need to learn things the hard way. Overall productivity was unsufficient for me to stay in London so I went back to my hometown. Right now I’m at my parents place, honing my skills and trying to get sustained with freelance. Stopped watching anime, only recently watched an anime about classical music, because classical music. I feel kind of pressured even if my parents aren’t nagging me every day, all day. Love them, supportive, but I can’t depend on them for the rest of my life.
So the time line looks like this:
January-April: Dissertation, procrastination and panicking.
April-June: Finishing my Final Major Project and other projects for graduation. Oh… and procrastination.
June-September: I finished university, worked out in a park a lot, did freelance there and here and even more procrastination
October-End of the year: Going to the pool, being cold and trying to improve my skills. Did I mention procrastination?
So that’s about it. Onto next year!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Past years I really liked to stretch and poeticize my posts. This year I’ll be brief and direct. So this year I’ll do points:
• Consistently update this thread (monthly)
• Provide evidence of improvement
• Reduce the amount of bad habits
• Get rid of some addictions (Ex. YouTube)
• Eat healthy
• Exercise
• Read/listen to more books
• Have at least 15 finished personal piece till the end of the year
• Overall get better at drawing and painting
• Get sustaining at freelance
• Start learning to play on a piano
• Improve on anatomy
• Improve on colour
• Improve on line quality
This time I made it before 12.00 pm.
Happy New Year and be stronk!
