I want to draw something everyday of 2024

I've been neglecting this account for a while now, I've been meaning to wake up but never got around to it sooner. I'm really sad that the shut down of Cohost is what bring me out of my slumber.

I should preface by saying that I'm going to try and clear my head a bit in the next few days and work a solution on where to move, at least temporarily.
I need to get a few things off my chest and sort my feelings a bit, so that what this post is about. I'll pin a new post with where to find me once I'll have it set up.

(Sorry, this is pretty messy but if I don't post this now I probably never will)



Dusting off my drawing tablet and clip studio license I got a long time ago and never really used.
It's pretty scary, all the options and buttons are quite overwhelming, it make me a bit nervous not being able to understand how everything work at once. Digital is very confusing, I'm having a hard time making anything as of now. I think I also took too big of a bite at once, It's probably going to be more fun to explore this new medium if I spent a bit less time on it and focus on having fun next times. But I guess that's today's little step forward.



I had a hard time getting into drawing today but it felt nice once I managed to start, it was relieving to think about something other than Cohost shutting down for a while1.
Even though I feel like I've learn a lot from yesterday drawing, It's still very hard to stand up on my own, I feel like I'm missing a lot of knowledge and practice with very basic fundamentals that keep biting me every time I try to draw anything. It would probably be a good thing if I were to study them, but I'm having a hard time gathering up the motivation to draw without aiming for a concrete results. It's something I've never really done until now.


  1. About that, I want to write about a few thoughts and what's next for me/where to find me next. I'm pretty shaken up by it all and I'm having a hard time putting into words everything I'd like to say. I'll post it all once it's ready (even if it's not perfect).
