Feeling Like I'm Running Out Of Time

my goal for 2025 is small simple and clear: change my whole entire life

Left-hand-training journal entry #11: This time it's a copy of wikipedia's mimosa pudica article 🌸

Made a pretty big mistake with the eyes hahaposasdkashda but I fixed it :D This is what happens when you work on the same piece for too long 😫

Here's the before and after:

I made an instagram account >:o

This was my first time animating! Kind of tedious but I learned a lot :D Small changes really do make a big difference in animation

Left-hand journal entry #5: Today's chosen article: nudibranchs!

crankin one out (a crying session)

I think mine was either Chibi Maruko Chan, Hayate the Combat Butler, Yuyu Hakusho, or Dragon Ball.... or Cardcaptor Sakura.. or.... hmm Σ(-᷅_-᷄๑)

Something I struggle with in learning how to art is the inconsistency in quality of the work I produce.
