Look at all that Free… Well, the fanart really helped me figure out paper and brushes and some styles 🙂
Had a pretty busy year with arting and I’m pleased about that. Did Drawlloween in October and did lotsa sketches and inks and still did some color pieces above. I was commissioned for the first time EVER, too. I also got commissioned for writing a fic and did some gift ficcing.
Been a very productive year for me, creatively.
THIS IS WHY FANART/FIC IS IMPORTANT! Such a great, safe, and encouraging place to practice and branch out to try new things! Look at this amazing watercolor work! Watching your art evolve over the year has been amazing, please keep it up!!! 🙂 I’m so proud.
the thing that makes me really appreciate the whole “i love you” / “i know” exchange in the empire strikes back is that, this whole time, han has been urging leia for some sign of affection, of validation, in terms of his feelings for her. han has made it clear that he likes her, but leia has been hiding or denying her affection towards him almost entirely. i think the reason han is so forward about it is that he hopes this will get her to admit it, not because he’s vain but because he needs his own feelings to be validated. after they kiss, he’s very outwardly affectionate, taking and holding her hand often, kissing her on the forehead, as if he’s purposely being somewhat obvious to make sure she notices, to test the waters, to see if she wants him to be as affectionate as he does. but even through all of his demonstrative behavior, leia is still pretty distant.
so in this crucial moment, she realizes that she’s never fully admitted how she feels, and that he needs to know. it’s not so much a “this could be my last chance to say it” moment, but a “this could be your last chance to hear it” moment. it’s true and she knows it, but she says it for him. she says it because she sees that he has to finally hear it. so his “i know” response isn’t cocky, it’s reassuring. it’s telling her not to be worried, because even though she’s never told him, han has always known.
You can keep querying, but you should work on something else. As soon as you start querying, open a new document and start writing something else. (not a sequel–something totally new)

It’s interesting to me (and has been noted by a few others) how you can see my mental state and health reflected in my art. I drew almost nothing Jan-March, but a huge, HUGE increase in September and on.
Medication, a change of scenery, a good job, and the support of awesome friends and family make an ENORMOUS difference!
Thanks for everything, guys! 2016 is on track to be totally amazing. <3

Quickly flipping through my daily sketch planner, since I don’t think I’ll be able to finish this year properly cause I’m still recovering. I might try this tiny planner/sketchbook again in 2017 but I don’t want to fall behind on 2016 before I even start.
Thanks again for all the support this year. I wish I could reply to everyone but my messages have piled up so much it’s giving me a bit of stress haha @_@;;. I do read all of them though, so thank you guys for the emotional support.
