Usually, I sneak a teaser into my new years image, something to show what I'll be working on over the next year. I doubt anyone cares about it really but its something I've enjoyed doing.

This year, I've decided to not do that, I don't want to set false expectations anymore, some things you want to achieve just dont work out much, which many of the projects I've teased in the past have never really come to fruition, so rather than tease what I hope to accomplish, I instead want this image to reflect some of my favorite things I've created this past year. In the image are 4 of my finals for my classes over this past year that i have enjoyed the most. I've discovered my true passion in Environment Art, and I really wanted to properly show what I've spent so much time working on.

Regardless of that, going into the future, I want to be responsible with the projects I show going forward. I don't want to give high hopes for something that isn't possible with my physical ability and mental limitations. From now on, going into the new year, all projects I work on will explicitly only be revealed when ready.

I've been on this site for about 8 years now, much of my youngest years, namely going through college, I took upon too many projects than i could handle and I've burnt myself out, ending up not being able to finish any, and having recently figured out part of why that was the case, I now have the means to deal with that properly. I hope you all can stick around for the projects I continue to work on in the future, especially as my college years come to a close in 2023.

My old Discord Server has been really inactive for a while, though I hope to boost it back up a little bit by at least posting my art there on stuff I've been working on, if you'd like to join, here's the link: https://discord.gg/tRrvh6MHsY

Thank you to even the few people who have stuck around, no matter how few there may be, you've shown me that being able to do what I love can be turned into a tangible career, and something I hope to continue into the future. Thank you to those who've stuck around, and I hope you continue to support my future endeavors, have a happy new years everyone, I'll see you in 2023~!
