Hello everyone~

My goal this year is to try to draw as much as possible and experiment, without worrying about how finished or polished something looks. This is a really big weakness of mine because I always feel like I shouldn't post unfinished or abandoned works, but the more open I can be about myself to the rest of the world, the better person I feel I can become. However I know a lot of people view my deviantART gallery as an informal portfolio, so I will be posting most of my work on tumblr: (link here)! I also livestream every week (livestream link here) on Tuesdays, starting 9pm PST and usually running until midnight, although sometimes I end an hour earlier or stay three hours longer...

I've also been trying to let myself buy things and use things that I think are "too nice" for me -- clothes, shoes, but also most importantly, sketchbooks! I always hesitate to buy nice clothes or draw in nice sketchbooks because I feel like I will ruin them, but I shouldn't tell myself that! I hope to really focus on self improvement this year.

Chinese New Year is this weekend! Happy year of the snake!

I have the same problem, I always want to finish whatever little sketch I draw.
Also, where did you get your book printed??

In Japan...... but it was also extremely expensive, especially due to the current exchange rate!

You can do it, Finni! I believe in you! Everyone believes in you! ... well, except those people that don't believe in you. But they suck anyway, so f*** 'em! :D

I can relate to the feeling of potentially ruining a sketchbook... but that's what they're for! If we cannot ruin them with our experiments, how will we grow? Its that thinking that's keeping me still buying them (okay I take that back, I've bought so many in the past I have a stock of empties I need to kill!).
