Here's my art summary of 2016 :)

What defined my creative work more than anything else this year was using a quality drawing tablet from Wacom, which was a huge departure from the cheap one I had used sparingly before and learned to hate xD

It was easily worth the money, and with it began my journey of developing a style in a medium that was still pretty new to me. I soon realized it would replace the traditional mediums I had used for coloring before almost completely. Convenience won in the end.

One of the few trad pieces I did this year was when I stayed in Berlin for EF22. It was easier to carry a box of pens on the plane instead of my entire pc set-up xD

I'm still doing the sketches for all my pics in graphite though, as I find it still not feasible for me personally to sketch fast and loose on a screen that feels disconnected from what I'm doing manually. Also commission work is so much more stress free in the digital medium, I wouldn't want to miss it anymore.

I know right? I will say it feels like I just recently got the hang of it. Wasn't quite as easy as I expected it to be :)

Thanks for the ongoing support, reading your comments is always nice for me! *hugs back* And I might do some trad art from time to time, it's just digital is great for how forgiving it is for someone like me who is anxious about making mistakes^^

oh i totally agree, that edit/undo option has got to be VERY handy!

It's very convenient indeed, but in a way I feel it's making the art a bit boring, since I can try every line 15 times if I want. Unique creations have their own charme. I actually did some traditional art in the meantime :) Might do that more often from now on.
