Thank you so much for such a beautiful work of art. I still look at this frequently and get excited all over again >A< When I see this I feel so much encouragement, it makes me want to keep trying to follow my goals and I love it for that! But I also love the artwork because it has so much gorgeous detail to look at and is so satisfying to look at! The background has such a nice mix of textures and abstract design and looks so incredibly unique, like someplace you might see in a dream, I love that so so much 0: the quote fills me with encouragement and determination, combined with the artwork it gives the feeling of 'continuing on even through the unknown' !! And the character artwork is just phenomenal ;A; I adore the shape of the cloak, and the way the cloth folds, your shading of clothing is amazing, it is just the right mix of style and realistic in the way that it folds with gravity. I Adore the pose, and the outfit choice as well, something perfect for adventuring in the wilderness of the mind! And the stunning highlights that accent the fur/hair textures so nicely and give so much more depth to the character and image as a whole, it just... amazes me how gorgeous it is. You have such exceptional skill as an artist and I am very grateful to have such a beautiful artwork from you, I hope to be able to get another YCH sometime in the future, your art is just so fantastic!

thank you so much for such a warm review! this gives me the strength to move forward and continue to improve and work on myself and my work! ~🍥
