And so the pages turn...
Hey everyone.
So, I left this account to rot again. Perhaps it's partly due to the matter at hand and that is that I don't really go by Yoli the Wonderer anymore. Yoli, perhaps. But alas. =B
Winter break started mid-December and I spent my days melted into books, anime, and video games when my energy wasn't spent on Aftermath and work. Oh gods. I worked so much this break. And here I am again, working tonight.
I think I know the reason why I rarely color things anymore. Some of it may attribute to blahblahblah better artists out there, but I think more so it's just college. Drawing, drawing, drawing there. I noticed my mistakes more prevalently and spend more time working out things, but in the end I get bored and feel unsatisfied. =\ And then I move on. Loss of confidence and whatever.
But I am working on a couple new ones and I want to finish them before I go back to school. Will that happen? Unlikely, I'll admit. Burnout from my studios isn't helping. Being an art major is a lot tougher than you'd first think. But it's all I can do, so I'll try my best.
I hope you all had a good holiday and I hope that this year I will become more consistent with drawing. I miss the days where I was finishing at least four things a month. =O Happy drawing~

Yay, it's Yoli's annual journal! *shot*
I know exactly what you mean about the blahblahblah and feeling unsatisfied in the end. I guess all I can say is, know what you want to draw, but don't think about it too much. The more you think about ii the more perfect it becomes in your head, and when you draw it less perfectly you'll be disappointed. And if you start something, make sure you start it well. If you start a drawing with a wonky circle, it will ruin the entire thing. But, you're a lot more experienced than me in that area xD;
Happy new year :3
