Artist's commentary
2023 summary/2024 plans🎄
Dear patrons, I am still alive and I've got some news - both good and bad 😪
Starting with bad news - my laptop is broken again and I will have to take some legal actions against seller who refused me a refund twice already.. I know the law is on my side but it's just pain in the ass to fight for such a basic thing.
Another thing is that I have to put my webtoon project on hiatus or maybe even change the form of it to a regular comic released on paper whenever it will be possible. I planned to start posting after coming back from Sweden but I had to do something else instead.
Which leads to the good news - I am working on a comic with new publisher so my financial struggles may be finally solved 😊 but I am also super busy and it may not change anytime soon if after my current commission will come new ones (fingers crossed!).
2023 brought me some lemons so I have huge expectations for 2024 in which I want to bring some changes to my art/life:
I really want to be active online and with ai and social media algorythms it is difficult for artists like me (busy and not so fast with creating new art) to actually reach any new people (and also many who are already following me) and stay relatively safe from data scraping too.
So I plan to switch to streaming live. Hopefully I will manage to stream traditional art but my first try will be digital. I choose twitch for that and will see if that is something that bring any joy to both me and other people 😙
I really want to also go to conventions more often which maybe will be possible if my comic jobs will go well :)
Last but not least - I have attached to this post some commissions I made this year and I want to thank you and everyone who commissioned me for helping me survive the bad times 🙏 I appreciate it a LOT ❤
