Hello everyone, Happy New Year! Sorry I'm a few days late...

Kind of a bummer that I didn't even make it to 50 followers here last year, never mind my target of 100. But I won't let that stop me from trying. Despite my attempts to advertise my artworks in the forum, few have taken notice so far. I'll need to become a bit more aggressive in promoting myself! But not to the extent of becoming annoying and spammy either...

My key goal this year is to improve my art, significantly. I've realised that, since I'm not going the NSFW route, only by having really high quality artworks to show off can I stand out on this website. I'll spend a lot more time practicing new techniques, learn anatomy properly, and try out some more dynamic poses and ambitious angles. I'll teach myself to draw faster and more effectively (moving from a mouse to a proper drawing tablet again should help too, as will upgrading to a more powerful computer with the latest version of Krita).

I'm also going to expand myself beyond Newgrounds and DeviantArt. I plan on making a Tumblr account soon, and possibly a Twitter and Furaffinity (big maybe) later in the year.

Officially, art is just a hobby of mine; my main career path is computing, specifically software development. Once I'm happier with my portfolio, I'd really like to make some personal projects, including some simple games starring my characters. I'll probably host them here on Newgrounds, if I can. There's a comic I'd like to start working on too.... but, I'm getting ahead of myself again.

Anyway... those are some of my major goals for this year ahead, along with making more friends here on Newgrounds. Other IRL resolutions of mine for this year include:

+) Getting more sleep

+) Getting more exercise

+) Less time online

+) More time studying and working to get my first job

Okay, with that all the way, I'd like to notify you that I'll be taking a break from the internet for a week or so, to relieve a little bit of stress (and meet some personal deadlines IRL). I'll be back soon with lots more fun ideas, so take care, and hope to see you there!

I haven't had much success with the forum so far, so I'm going to make more topics, and start posting to other people's topics.

Would be nice to get to 100 followers before the end of the year, as I had planned at the start of this year, but it's probably too late now...

...because that's the only way I can think of, that anybody here will ever see my art.

Do Newgrounds' tags even work? Do people here even sort by new? Is it because I don't know who Pico is?

Seeing pretty much every other artist I click on have multiple front-paged drawings, and thousands of watchers even though they've only been on a couple of months, is kind of depressing. Not to mention the lack of interaction on my posts... oh, wait. Why am I typing this again?

Happy New Year everybody!

It's also my first year anniversary of having an account on Newgrounds. I made an account on December 31st 2020, and spent almost that entire day archiving old artworks here, so that they wouldn't show up for 2021's art gallery.

Anyway... one year of Newgrounds. Yeah, I haven't made much of an impact yet, have I? Barely 20 watchers, and little to no interaction on an average session here.

I'd like that to change! I plan on spending more time on this website in 2022. I'll stop treating this place like second fiddle to my DeviantArt account. Maybe I'll try actually seeking out other small artists here instead of the big ones advertised at the bottom of the page, or perhaps advertise myself in the art forums? I'm sure there must be someone here, besides my DeviantArt followers, who would enjoy my art. Somebody on the DA forums said my art style even reminded them of Newgrounds, so it is quite ironic that I am so invisible here so far.

Anyway, best of luck for the New Year. And behave yourselves!

Ho ho hope you enjoy yourselves this Christmas!

I drew quite a few holiday themed artworks this year. Consider these my gifts to you!

Also, a little something extra for my adult viewers. Some very thicc reindeer girls!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I will be uploading lots of Christmas themed content later this month.

Expect some thicc Reindeer girlz! And, other stuff, I guess...

Stay tuned!

It's spooky time!

Why not celebrate Halloween by having a look at these scary new artworks I made for you:

Also, my horror OC Corey makes a dramatic return for the occasion:

(Does anybody actually read these news posts?) Have a Happy Halloween anyway!

I'm back from my hiatus! I think my assessment might have gone okay, and I enjoyed my break.

Already dumped a few new artworks here. Of particular note, are my Tasque Manager fanart (she's all the rage right now!), and my Fnuzzlee HD artwork (a remake of an older picture, to celebrate the anniversary of my most popular OC).

I'm going to be on a hiatus next month, due to focussing my attention on the final report for my uni course. This is the final assessment of my final year, so it is pretty important and I don't want to do badly! After that I'll probably have a very short holiday...

I should be back again in October in time for Halloween to share some spooky stuff with you!

Do you have a DeviantArt account? If so, you should be interested in what I have to say...

LlanellaWhatCake is having a HUGE raffle right now, to celebrate reaching 750 watchers:

Big, big prizes to win, for up to 3 winners! Just make sure you have an acceptable OC character to be drawn if you reach 1st place, and that you follow all the rules of the raffle.

Oh, and be sure to give LlanellaWhatCake a watch too. She makes lots of beautiful artworks: https://www.deviantart.com/llanellawhatcake

Best of luck!
