hello everyone ,
thank you for making my experience on newgrounds so far feel very welcoming and a good creative space. i only really started on october 2023 but i like how newgrounds feels already 😄 but this year i am trying to draw more since i have learned a lot from school regarding painting and also because i want to eventually build a portfolio for illustration commissions. i am very slow and reluctant at creating work due to chronic arm, wrist and hand pain from drawing but i want to try to post something once in a while or more often 😸 one of my resolutions this year is to hold firm and to upkeep a social media because i abandon everything and i really like newgrounds so far.
i have not posted much yet but in advance i am apologizing for any low quality images i upload, i always upload my work as a jpeg with 10-15% deterioration as a measure to prevent art theft or reposters from having the full quality picture. i dont sign my work because in the past i always felt like my signature was intrusive and i always have a habit of changing usernames/ aliases ( due to irl people who stalk my art out of spite). so yah that is why my recent piece and likely future pieces will be crunchy and artifacted 😹 i want to pretend that the poor jpeg quality is a filter that makes your art look old but sometimes it is a little ugly.
ok everyone, thank you
