I’ve been updating the galleries on this site, starting with the Commissioned Works gallery. I FINALLY found a plugin that’ll work on the site that’ll show the art and not look like garbage.
The Illustrations section will be split into subsections so I can feature The Women Warriors, Subversive Girls, and a few other series’ of illustrations.
A gallery of Sketches is also slated to reappear…somehow…in some way…
This year, I’m all about making things on the weekly.
The thing is, last year my goals were to do specific things EVERY DAY. After a while, that got really hard to accomplish with just one goal, but I had FOUR to keep up with.

It has been about a week now, so I wanted to clue you in on how it’s going. Continue reading “Day 6 of Using Clip Studio Paint”
