There were too many things going on and new habits to learn so I forgot to note down stuffs in here.
I will try to restart that habit in the next week!
Work and Art
Commission
Commissions are getting a bit boring now.
I just start streaming again! Drawing alone can get boring sometimes so I'm planning to stream 1-2 a week as a refreshing activity.
Personal Art
It's going nowhere for the time being, but in these past 2 weeks it's actually better for my mental health that way. For the longest time I tried to squeeze in a study/sketching session before work but it stressed me out greatly and in turn derail my commission schedule. I don't know if I got ADHD but some symptoms just check out, like I can't switch tasks easily. I will find another way forward because I do want to improve by doing more study!
Topics
from now on, random topics will be grouped in this new section for cleaner organization
Good things
- kaede just followed me! He's one of my big inspiration with his angel theme OC artbook and his upcoming traditional Chinese themed project
Not so good things
- I just search the keyword "ai" and limit the search in my follow list. Found out a bunch of people to unfollow. What devastated me the most was actually redjuice's interview. There were definitely nuanced thoughts and he definitely acknowledge the harms but in the end he seems to just comfortably use AI "as a tool" without caring about the harm. I guess in some way that's worse than people who refuse to acknowledge. I still like his old art but he's definitely no longer someone I can respect anymore.
Favorite Art of the Week
- I originally put Irys new model here but now it puts a bad taste in my mouth. The layer separation is really smart and natural, the design and accessories were cool too.
- Sooo this week's favorite art is Sheya's illustration series!

- It seems to be based on several fairy tales.
- Her art quality is superb like usual. I like her color sense, especially the blue used in these 2 pieces https://twitter.com/dingkuang1/status/1716269580929081552
- What I like the most is the layout and presentation of the project.
- The set of cards (?) with foil printed patterns, accompanied with simple illustration.
- The storytelling in the spread with full illustration on one side and several small framed illustration in the other.
