Another year is almost done; only felt like 3 months, tbh!

This year was full of nice surprises! But first, let's take a look at my art summary!

Decent improvement from last year! I've 100% improved on hands, composition, backgrounds and color! I also made a more polished pieces in May and December, but I can't post them yet. :(

As for the 2024 bingo card, I'm happy to say that I've cleared the board!

Here's next years' art bingo card, too!

Some of the goals are the same, but I added a bunch of new ones to keep things fresh!

Now, for the main event! Let's recap what went down this year!

January

January started off pretty rocky emotionally, but I was able to see my work in midgetsausages' Sketch Collab and Kunishiros' Solidarity Collab! I also made a song for Pixel Day and experimented with how I draw hands!

February

In February, I got to make something for a Secret Cupid event [Secret Santa but for valentines day] and finally finished those HTF gijinkas from last year! The collab lineup for this month was Loopykins' Valentines Day Collab and RepriseAgains' Summertime in Wintertime Collab!

March

March was when I got to be part of a pilot program; it's a course that teaches you the basics of cooking! I also earned my bronze whistle which was pretty cool! Got to be a part of TechnoCookies' Adult Swim Collab, SkilledFellas' Sandwhich Collab and AnassAnimationPros' Easter Egg Collab!

April

April started off with a fake AI image prank [almost got reported for it :P], getting interviewed by Aalasteir/BottleTopBillFanclub, launching my HTF Gijinka Collab, witnessing a total solar eclipse and being part of a paid employment training program! I also got 200 followers and my first frontpage! :D

Another highlight was EmsDeLaRoZs' Earth Day Collab!

May

Mermay was in full swing and I managed to complete it! I also got a gig as a lead artist for a Roblox game called MGDWare [underrated af, play it plz] and saved up enough to kickstart HRT, but learned I was pre-diabetic in the process. There was still time to get my shit together health-wise, though.

Other than that, GlitchBuddys' KinitoPet Collab and OnceHeres' Dragon Raid Collab didn't dissapoint!

June

June was spent preparing for Artfight with a trip to Canadas' Wonderland in the mix! But on June 18th, I OFFICIALLY began HRT! Other highlights include theOves' Sonic 33rd Anniversary Collab and tydazes' NG Pride Month Collab!

July

July was spent on the Artfight battlefield, so there are no collabs to show off. BUT, I spent a night at a resort, went to a food truck festival [while winning an eating contest], got an artist shoutout and found some hidden gems during this years' Treasure Hunt!

It was also my birthday on the 30th, marking my 20th anniversary on this godforsaken planet!

August

August got a few extra days of Artfight, but I also learned how to make FNF sprites, made some Clown Week art, got an ADHD diagnosis [plus some meds] and got my silver whistle!

This busy month was tied together by stupidvampries' Music Gijinka Collab and RepriseAgains' South Park Collab 2!

September

September started off with a broken sink and a switch from needles to gell for my HRT, but it was rounded out by ComicCon and midgetsausages' The Sketch Collab 2024! Nothing else to report for September.

October

October 2nd is when I got User of the Day! I also got to try Takeover Tuesday for the first time, held a raffle on Bluesky and made a whole new portfolio! I also went trick or treating for possibly the last time; got 6 king sized candies and a Young Hellboy comic!

November

November was another rough month with a bad depression spell, but I was saving up money, went to a local holiday train event, completed this years' bingo card, won a kahoot for this years' NG Secret Santa and got to help out with this years' Tankmas ADVENTure! I wanna shoutout squidly and MrShmoods for letting me tag along! :3

I also was part of a song by Aalasteir, lol! :P

December

Finally, December wrapped up the year with some Secret Santas, my entry for KingCrowneds' Brainrot Collab [coming soon; it also got a P-bot top 5 spot!] and no longer being pre-diabetic! Yippee!

However, PicoCross got cancelled and I broke my phone, but that didn't sour the festive mood!

At the time of writing this, I've also been working on a little something! It's not related to my art, but you'll have to wait and see!

"New year, new me" as they say! ;)

Glad I kept track of the events that happened this year! So much has happened and I can't wait to see what 2025 has in store!

Here's to a new year!
