Ough it's so interesting seeing how your art has changed over the past like year tho you've literally been so talented the whole time the improvement is amazing still. Screaming and crying and throwing up but in the most positive way

I AM SO HAPPY TO HEAR THIS AHH..,, ;O; thank youu!! I've had SO many moments of feeling really stagnant and dissatisfied with my art, throughout my whole life really but more than ever during the last couple of years. I've had more than my share of feeling discouraged by feeling that I should have progressed way further than I have, but when I look back on older stuff and notice things I could have done differently/better, I realize noticing the flaws DOES mean I've gotten better!! and it's INCREDIBLY validating when others mention they see improvements—I tend to get a little embarrassed at the thought of others seeing my mistakes, but maybe you actually see the improvements even more! when I was putting together my art summary I didn't think there was very much of an actual change throughout the months, so to get a nice ask like this really gave me a boost ;w; so thank you!!! so much!! I hope to get back to drawing a lot more this year and improving even more!!
