[Blog] Work in Progress #01 : Throwing my thoughts into the void
(And maybe a void surfer will come along the way)
I had always wanted to start writing a blog recording my illustration progress so here it is. This blog series is, in truth, an outlet for me to fix that wanting-to-post-something bug that hits me some days. The need to post something, to keep up with with the algorithm and all that… I find it difficult. And I’m sure there are posts, blogs and tiktoks talking about the negative impact that social media has affected both artists and art viewer. That’s a topic I don’t need to write pages on here.
And it’s not just because of that bug i mentioned earlier that I’m writing this; I also miss writing and thinking about the art progress.
University was difficult for me but one of the few things I miss the most about it was the studio. Having peers looking over andmaking art together, discussing point of references while criticing art… These I find something that’s hard to replicate online. To make things hard on myself, I am not a talkative person online. The fandom space now seems to be congregating on discord, an app I have not used in years.
So I write here, throwing my thoughts into the endless abyss to satisfy my inner self (making new connections is a plus).
Here’s a sneak peak of my next posting: my current progress in tranforming selected Genshin Impact flowers into illustrative wood carvings inspired from the Malay Peninsular. This little personl project of mine is a part of a bigger illustration work I’ve put down for myself.
Thank you for reading and see you soon.
