[TRADITIONAL ART AT BOTTOM]

2013- I try to forget being into Homestuck, but I am actually really impressed that my 3rd digital drawing had both quite decent lighting but not terrible anatomy. Not to mention, I hadn't heard of using reference at this age.

2013- My first ever Tablet Drawing (on a Wacom Bamboo!) I would have been 12/13 years old in 2013 and I remember being really overwhelmed by the difficulty of the non screen tablet. I still recommend beginners to go for a screen, despite the price.

2013- Trying to draw a dragon; I remember struggling with where to put the wings and repositioning them a lot. I took this piece quite seriously as I was determined to learn volume, anatomy and value/contrast.

Below is traditional art as this was the last year I did traditional drawings in my free time and I feel its important to archive. One year, I decided to throw out all my childhood art and this is all that is left that I know of. Yes its very cringe worthy but everyone is a edgy kid at one point.

2014-Watercolour year 7 art class assignment study from a famous water colour artist Agnes Cecile

These last two I deem very pivotal. I was really afraid of colour and never strayed from a 2B pencil but I remember with the late 2013 Soul Eater poster that I really wanted to compose something that included more than one colour for the first time. The character hugging the sword in the middle was my then pride and joy which I remember spending so long on. I was so jealous of patient people who worked on detail for hours. Turns out, I stopped trying to be that person and am happier for it. The watercolour piece was for school work and I looking back, I see nothing but sadness in my old art. I can clearly feel the desperation from my childhood self, even if the pieces don't tell anything. The same feeling I get from old pictures of myself.
