Rebuilding Myself and New Plans
4 years ago
As a follow-up to my previous journal entry, I've already gotten a jumpstart to recovery from the huge stress that I've had from social media these past couple of months. I've finally managed to vent out most of my frustration and chat with some of my friends on Discord. Though, I haven't completely shared what really wanted to tell in my previous journal since my explanation would've gotten more personal at that point, which is why I'm making a follow-up to help get back on my feet. For my artwork, I want to spend a little more time with myself and give my style a more unique and proper identity. I'll still have to rely on my favorite artists' styles though, but I know now that they'll definitely help me shape the kind of art style that I really want to make.
I also should've mentioned this some time ago, but as of right now, I'm officially a temporary Amazon warehouse employee, and I'm almost on my second month mark working there. It's a pretty medial and exhausting job, especially since I'm always in the graveyard shift, but at least I'm getting paid for it. Because of this, I'll be inactive from all art sites for 5 days more or less, depending on holidays and mandatory overtime shifts. I'll only be able to post one or two drawings per week, which is at least better than nothing.
Back to the main subject, I will be focusing on my own drawings a lot more for the time being to understand myself better as an artist, so these will be the following plans that I will follow through to make myself better:
1) Old OC revivals: Long before I joined the community, I've already started making furry art as early as 2008. Throughout those years, I created about a total of 21 ocs, in which only 5 made it to this day while the rest were scrapped or lost in time. But now that I've somewhat revealed what I had to say in my previous entry, I can finally go ahead with my original plan to bring back my remaining 16 "dead" ocs, which I'll post each one randomly in between my upcoming fanarts.
2) Commissions, art trades and gifts will be closed for now.
3) More frequent nsfw content: Hey, guys like me will need to get a good kick out of the juicy stuff, right? lol
With that out of the way, I hope I can finally find some peace in mind from all this so that everything will return to normal for me. Take care guys, and I'll see you all in my upcoming posts or on Discord when I'm off from work ^_^

One example here is
Perhaps I can give you links to two galleries of my characters below, so as to inspire you to make something of your own. Although frankly on my part, my main OC Timothy has gone through few changes compared to Yetshi.

I hope this helps you Jo. Either way, it's nice for you to be honest with yourself and plan to change things for the better. I hopes things go alright with you despite current circumstances. Thank you for taking time to read this, and take care.
