Description Sorry if you can't see the drawings very well.
I tried to incorporate different pictures for each year, but they're kinda small.

Usually I'd post this like.... in January (or March, when I first joined), but I'm impatient and wanted to share it now. So. here yall go.

2015 was basically just. a carefree year. All I did was draw shitty pics that I, for some reason, was really proud of. and I drew constantly. Like, literally all the time. I don't remember much about 2015, but I had this weird obsession with drawing my old main OC, Violet Blaze and Undertale and creating typical deviantart 'species' that no one gave a shit about. This year was just one big shit-storm of terrible art and I'm kinda embarrassed about this, to be honest. Hopefully I can leave the past in the past, lmao. Couldn't draw humans, I tried, but they. didn't come out well. gave up trying to draw them for a year.

2016 was kind of the same, but I didn't draw as much though, mainly stuck to drawing my old, very very unused OC, Rayas, and Eclif and mostly drew Hetalia/Nekotalia fanart. My style didn't really change much from 2015, other than I stopped using such thick lineart and I tried improving my cat anatomy a bit. Still couldn't draw humans. The cat anatomy still sucked.

2017 was sort of the year where my style started to change. I pumped out more art, which gave me more of a chance to improve. Still mainly drew Hetalia/Nekotalia, but also kind of spread out a bit more, drew more humans, found new fandoms. Backgrounds were still horrendous, though. This was also the year I found out about Firealpaca, which, honestly saved my art style. If it weren't for Firealpaca, I'd probably still be drawing shitty art with thick lineart and shading/shadows made from the airbrush tool. Thank you, Firealpaca, for always being there for me. :') Once again, still couldn't draw humans. Was slowing learning how to, though.

2018 was a better year for art. My art style improved drastically. Seriously. Look at that big ass improvement!!! I studied pictures of cats more, look at other people's arts, tried to create a realistic style, but also keep it cartoon-ish. I had also learned how to shade! Kind of. Pumped out more art, improved a lot, started spacing out to more fandoms. I became a lot more happy with how my art came out (all thanks to Firealpaca, love u boo). Drew humans more often, experimented a bit with my style for them.

2019, so far, has been like. really fuckin better than the past 4 years. I've been changing my style, experimenting, trying my hardest to make the anatomy of my drawings correct, and exploring ways to make my backgrounds better. I used to just draw terrible backgrounds that only have like. a few colours. Like, a completely white bg, or a bg of stripes in a different shade. But now??? Mate. Look at those fuckin backgrounds. look at my most recent drawings, they've got bomb ass bgs that I'm seriously proud of!! (for once). Wish I had more motivation to draw tho lmao. But seriously, I usually would say my art is trash, but looking back at my art back in 2015 and comparing it to my art in 2019, I legit get whiplash. Gone is the shitty little kid who didn't know how to draw properly and thought people actually cared about my art, and in comes this acne-covered slightly taller kid who can draw better and now knows that people don't care about my art. I've also gotten way better at drawing humans and the pride month thing let me really find out what kind of drawing style I want to draw for them.

Anyways. This whole post was a big ol train wreck back to memory lane, to places I never want to explore to again my 2015 drawings..... i never want to look at them ever again, but it was fun. A blast. Totally gnarly. Fuckin bombin'. Yeah I was a narcissistic little shit who thought my art was the bee's knees, but now I know that improving takes time and learning to accept that my drawing ability was the lowest of the low also took time. I'm okay with how my art looks now; I've improved a whole lot since I first started posting things on Deviantart and I'm proud that I managed to get this far. I'm sorry for this long, useless spiel but I just wanted to compare my art over the years and show you all how much I've changed. How much better I've become at drawing. Hopefully I'll be able to continue making art and improving.

TLDR; ............after 4 years...........of shitty art.......................wow...................................................improvement


And now time to shut up and stop rambling. :v

Friendly reminder that since I first met you, even back when we were both still learning what the hell we were doing and how to do it, you've been one of my biggest inspirations & closest friends the whole damn way. I'm proud of you seeing how much you've grown & I'm glad to see that you're happy with that improvement too, and I'm looking forward to what the future will bring!!

<3<3 I'm glad to have been able to inspire you, you inspired me too!! Honestly if it weren't for you becoming my friend and collabing with me, I probably wouldn't of really expanded much on my characters. Eclif would probably be just some. character I used and he wouldn't really be as 3d as I'm trying to make him now. Which, to me, is really important!! If it weren't for you n Eclif I probably wouldn't be as motivated to draw today. <3 And thank you :') I never really noticed how much I've improved until now and it makes me happy to see other people are proud of it!! Hopefully I'll be able to continue drawing in the future, and see your beautiful drawings too ^^
