Hello everyone !! <3

It's been months since I've been properly active on here and as you all know it's due to my university commitments.
Tuesday I finally had my exhibition and it went fantastic, both mine and my friends methods were spoken in the
speeches given to portray the painters ( And my friend won the award for our course, which I've never known someone
to deserve an award more than her, I'm so proud and I hope her future studies go even better on her journey to become
a tutor <33 ) - The Mayor and Mayoress both thoroughly enjoyed my work and all in all, I acquired A LOT of attention
because of how unique my paintings are.
I want to hopefully mix both my art here and my painting practice together to create some unique painted portraits
so please keep an eye out for that, I might paint a few for free as practice too !!

I have my final working day in university on Friday where I will be required to give a presentation on my work
overall ( WHICH IS SUPER SCARY ) so I'm prepping on that. After that... I finish university.
I'll be a full-time artist and looking for a job. We clear our studio spaces in June and graduate in November but I
officially finish this Friday *squee*

You have no idea how hard I've worked, I look forward to gathering all of my work and taking pictures to show
how much I've produced over these past 3 years, it's crazy.

I can't wait to get back to traditional badges and digital art, I want to improve to my hearts content and produce
as much art as I want in the free time I've deserved.

Thank you so much for sticking by me and supporting me in notes, comments and so on. It really means the
world to me and it's kept me on my feet. I wanted to drop out of uni a few times for different reasons but I
fought through it and I'm so, so proud of myself.

I'll see you all real soon.
Thank you,
Akiko
