Intense week. Lots of focused session, both in work and practice.
Work & Art
Doing commission
- Almost finish another 2 commissions
- Facing heaps of challenges and able to pull through
- the challenge of Unbeauty🌱 is there, but I'm not as helpless as before, being able to stop drawing, reviewing possible problems, speculating possible solution and a lot of trial and error after that
- the solution might not be perfect but not giving up is a big achievement to me
Sketches
I CAN DRAW HANDS!!!! I'm so glad all those practice sessions did pay off!
Practice + Figuary 2023
- Restarting my daily figure practice now
- I try to apply a new learning procedure:
-
- Draw from reference
-
- Tracing reference to find room for improvements
-
- Draw it again
👇 Wrist Study
- Draw it again

Practice Review
- I can more clearly see that how much I've been relying on symbol drawing.
- I don't think symbol drawing is a bad thing. If I set a standard of avoiding it 100% the time, the number of problem to solve would be too much for me too actually finish an artwork.
- Symbol Drawing can be an indispensable part in a unique style if it's very consistent.
Random stuffs
- There are a lot of backlog and plan in Seeds Storage but I really should take my time and process them slowly
- The Fediverse and Misskey in particular seems so fun! But I'm a bit skeptical about scalability and data backup.
- Do I trust a big company to handle my data or a small individual or group?
- What happens if someone grows really fast on a small server, can the system handle it?
- Being away from social media makes my time management hundred times easier, but I want to maintain my online presence and connect with other people too! Needs to find way to not become sucked into doom scrolling again.
I need a better structure for the blog entry, "random stuffs" is non-descriptive and so useless!!! Maybe I just name a new heading based on the content of that week, doesnt have to be a fixed category.
Favorite Art of the Week
- definitely JDGE animation, hard to choose one since it is so impressive, good taste in graphic design, color sense and form drawing!!! really close to what I want to be.
