I was looking through my old drawing folders for a Youtube short and I found some drawings I never posted outside of Instagram. I really liked these. DTIYS from 2023.

I redrew one of my old colour palette challenge fan arts. I felt nostalgic for the Tactics anime recently.

I redrew an old drawing! I like it a lot which is rare for me. Let's see how good I can get this year.

Greetings! Since I've last updated this space I have returned to my hometown. The boiling point was that the house I was living in had signs of being cased. Most people who I shared some of the incidents with thought that this wasn't normal. Including the landlord's mum. Unfortunately the landlord themselves didn't think it was a big deal. They cried and whinged about how it's money out of their pockets (to upgrade security) and that it will be a 'some day' task.

There was a very unnerving incident in mid March last year which made me think I could be getting into danger if stayed any longer. So by the end of April I was gone. It seems like fate in way. Towards June my dad became more ill than usual and was in and out of the hospital for the rest of the year. My brother is my dad's primary carer and it became a too big of job to do alone. So I've been helping out my family. I won't lie, I had been feeling down for the rest of 2024.

Instead of working on my art career I spent the rest of the year distracting myself with video games. I began working on my backlog of games. Thankfully I am at a better place with everything now. In future I see myself only buying games when I actually want to play it. It's more expensive (and stressful) for me to buy a bunch of games on sale and have them waste around compared to buying one thing full price and really savouring it.

Now that it's 2025 and I am back on track emotionally I want to do an updated room tour! This is the current environment that I am creating art in:

My Xie Lian wall scroll makes a return near my door nearby I have my bookshelf and a drawer.

I haven't thought about what to put in this drawer yet. But since we are on the topic. This could be a great space to store vitamins yeah? Next I'd like to share is how I am storing things:

I am using the space under the bed to store things I don't really need on a daily basis. I bought console boxes to store the old consoles. It took many months of shopping around to find the right boxes in decent condition with my preferred budget. I am proud that I accomplished this.

I bought some drawer dividers and instantly the space was so much organised! I keep my art tablet pen in there whenever I am not using it.

Finally the square shelves made it with me to my hometown. It's actually sitting on top of a desk. I covered it with a cloth. Under the cloth I have a plastic container storing random things. There's also a basket for dirty clothes. In the cubes itself I have more random things. I don't know if you recall the larger shelves I had in my last house but that is now helping my family store things in the store room. Also on top are my rocks/crystals:

My favourite is the one that looks the Van Gogh's Starry Night. I also have a lot of love for the crystal rabbit. The acorn is the newest addition which I bought in my last house. Finally we have my desk:

This is my cozy area! I have a pretty desk mat and a Venti mouse pad. A small Venti figure that my friend gave me keeps me company while I draw. I decided to use a calendar this year! I guess I got the fomo when people I was talking to were telling me about their new calendars. Calendar Club had them on half price after the new year. Probably trying to finish of their stock. I also store my tour box away when I am not using it:

I also decided to display one of my dolls. It's a different doll from the other two in the last house. I still have them. I actually have a total of five dolls and I rotate between storage and display. Yeah that's probably too many dolls. ha ha. It kind of just happened over the last twelve years. That's like a doll every 2.5 years no? Anyways here is Hong Lee:

And that about wraps out my room tour! I hope you have a beautiful February and I'll be out here hyper focusing on art. I shall have more to share with you and send the post off I wanted to share this old picture of a galah and pink cockatoo perched next to each other. What great friends 🌷
