i don’t know if anyone reads these types of posts but i write them anyway because it’s cool to be honest with people




2024 is kind of sucking ass actually

hate to put something like this at the top of the page but 2024 hasn’t exactly been treating me well so far. in january a stray cat that we considered a part of the family was mauled by a dog in our front yard. it hit us really hard, and it killed my motivation to do anything for a bit. don’t worry tho, i’m doing better


mentioned this on my art thread but that’s also the reason why i ended up not doing anything for pixel day. it happened just a few days before pixel day and i really couldn’t bring myself to do my entry. i still want to get back into pixel art tho, so i might just make what i was planning anyway


possible hiatus

lately ive been considering taking an indefinite hiatus from newgrounds. ive recently realized that all of this art block and fear of making art has been caused by this site, in a way. like, ive realized that the reason why im scared is because im afraid ill make something “bad” and people will hate it and realize how bad of an artist i really am, and then they’ll leave…………. impostor syndrome sucks

though its difficult tearing myself away from this place bc it means a lot to me. it taught me so much about art and i def wouldn’t be in the place i am now if it weren’t for this site


i have gotten some art done (woah! wonkypaws finishing art in the year of 2024? unbelievable) but im refraining from posting it for this reason. im trying out keeping my art between me and my friends. it’s more comfortable, but i do miss this place


in general im just figuring myself & my art out and stuff. im doing okay though :)



anyway this post has been kind of sad. ill end it on a lighter note: did you know that cows have best friends?
