ik i'm still at the beginning of this new chapter in my life, but looking back, it's strangely comforting to know that all the worry, the introspection, and the hours i put into myself and my art wasnโ€™t pointless.

it sure took a while, but i think it was necessary for me to finally move forward.

there's a sense of relief I feel now that I have a clearer idea of what I wanna do in life, and how I'll get there.

nothing's for certain of course, and i'm very much still playing this by ear, but it's alot better than the past five years or so, feeling hopelessly lost and down on myself.

bonus: some closeups

it's nice to know the learning curve from working digitally to analog isn't too crazy; it's about what i expected.

excited to get more out when I can.

bonus: misty inspection!

kinda annoyed at myself for not trying this earlier.

as a person who much prefers shooting with film vs with a digital camera, i knew making a collage by hand would be up my alley, but i just never got around to doing it.

it feels so good to not use software to create.

it all comes back (eventually) โ€” ac01

set aside my mouse and keyboard for an x-acto knife and glue stick to make my very first analog collage. ๐Ÿ˜Œ

truly a soothing and meditative experience for me. definitely won't be my last one.

sometimes i feel kinda weird for including typography in my work if what it's saying isn't relevant to the other elements in the composition or isn't reflective of what i'm feeling in the moment

but from a visual perspective, it's great at filling in space and adds a lil somethin' to everything

definitely, i'd imagine it'd be beneficial later down the road too. good luck to those that need to do that though, cause it ain't easy..

and even if they don't invest that energy into their communities, they can preserve it for themselves! use it to create something, or to move our bodies, or both

we'd be better off that way ๐Ÿ˜…

the hold that engagement has on people is strong. it also seems like some people can't stand having a feed that doesn't feed them content ๐Ÿ˜”

ik some people depend on it for work and commissions, but man, of all websites to depend on. truly unfortunate.

it's hard to feel great about the state of the US these days, but of all things, the Superbowl halftime show gives me hope for the future. this was much needed

2025 recap:

This year was about self-expression > everything else. I poured my heart and soul into these collages, and in return, I learned so much more about myself.

There's so much I could say, but I can't seem to put it into words atm.. I'm just feeling really grateful.

Thanks y'all. ๐Ÿ™

it feels kinda bittersweet since I don't plan on streaming much anymore, but it's a good memory to look back on

thinking about an end of year yap sesh..

not much has happened this year besides a lot of introspection, but it may be good for me to just get my thoughts out there
