This is an old sketch I think from 2016. It was in the very first post I did on Steem where I was introducing myself and my work. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT I WAS GETTING INTO, haha. I couldn't have imagined that this place would become such a huge part of my life and thinking about all the time and energy I've poured into this place, when I thought about it all just ending and becoming some centralized cesspool, this illustration is a good visualization of what that felt like.
So glad we landed on our feet at then end of everything and I'm excited to see where things go from here. When I originally shared this I didn't share the process so here's a little something new.
During the time I created this I was challenging myself to do a sketch a day, and this was one of the days sketches. I'd usually sit with a clipboard of paper and doodle thumbnails until I found something I liked, then scan it in and start painting on top. My process has changed a lot since then, and I hope to have enough bandwidth(ever?) again to be able to do this. These days I've got two little guys that demand a lot of attention running around and using me as their personal jungle gym, so it's a bit harder to focus :p
Shameless plug time!
