What is Kitti up to???
3 months agoWell, it's been a while.
For those who need a refresher: Hi! I'm Allikitti, ABDL furry artist. Part-time, so it seems.
I've been on a "summer break", of sorts. After April I've been mostly absent from any social media where I have a presence. These sabbaticals are a recurring pattern. I go dark, come back, make art. Hibernate, emerge. Usually without context.
I'm pretty quiet about my personal life, unless you've caught any of my Picarto streams. I don't want to get into a habit of making apologies or explanations for my absence. I feel like my distance from certain social media has been a healthy thing, actually. So I'll leave it there. Just know that I'm doing well, and that I'm never "done" with art.
But some things will need to change. I'll break it down.
Every year, I get a grand, vague idea about how I can do "more". I get a big kick of passion and I immediately try to make use of it. Who doesn't? And it's never consistent. But I'm at a point where acceptance feels like a better trait than stamina. You know the quote, "Don't let perfect be the enemy of good."
Commissions have been a wonderful journey. I've learned a lot from them. I'm not finished with them entirely. But they're not gonna be what I focus on anymore.
I've met so many wonderful and talented creatives in the babyfur community. Every day, I see them develop their remarkable projects through this blazing passion…and discipline, and skill, and perseverance, of course. But what I'm most amazed by is how they find such joy in their work. Commissioned, personal, or otherwise. I'm in awe of the spark. And maybe a little jealous.
This is not me. For a long time, my process has felt mechanical. I've been given several opportunities to hone my craft and truly make art my life. I'm incredibly privileged in that way. But with all these chances, I haven't taken advantage of my circumstances to the level that I'm happy with. And I thought that was a character flaw.
It might be. I was given tools, structure, and support to create since before high school. Adults uplifted me, rooted for my success, helped me grow. So this is a problem of privilege. Evidence of my own mediocrity where another, more deserving artist would have flourished, probably.
But I've realized. I've been practicing my craft in a very structured, transactional way since I decided "artist" was a fundamental piece of who I am. Let's say around fifteen years.
Here's where I'm at. Even on my "art highs", I don't want to make anything for myself. Making my own ideas come to life brings me little emotion. The actual work of illustration is frustrating and sometimes banal. I am technically proficient, but there's little substance.
Learning that was…kinda scary. How'd that happen? Can I get better?
I want to re-define my relationship with art. I want to uncover that joy I had when I was a real kid in grade school, making animals out of magnets, and cat games on Scratch.mit.edu, and shameless RP chatlogs, and unfinished journals full of OC writings.
Basically, I wanna get super fucking obsessed with the process again. I wanna get back to that point where I'm fighting for ways to fill my time with projects. And to do that, I need to turn down the pressure and be patient.
That means no commissions for a while. Things might stay quiet. But they will pick back up.
There it is. I'm Allikitti, I need my summer break, and I still don’t know what the hell I'm doing. But, I'm an ageplayer. That means I'm a kid at heart, right? So I've still got room to grow.
I hope to share much more of my ideas with you in the future. :3
