January! Art Suggestion Thread-Late

Added 2023-01-23 07:36:16 +0000 UTC

Hey everyone, hope the new year is treating you well. I've been a bit quiet as of late due to some traveling and self reflection.

It's time to suggest work I should create and ideas for the polls. Everyone is free to give ideas.

Suggest characters, scenarios, themes anything you'd like. Let me know whether something you suggest is R-18 because if not I'll just end up deciding on it myself.

About the Illustration

This is a character I made a while ago I named Manza. She was part of a group of characters I sketched up to flesh out a world of my own. One that I'd potentially like to see as a game. I imagined her being an older sister type of person within a village of explorers and farmers.

I don't know why but I always feel like my work feels...empty? I worry things feel too simple? Like the shapes aren't full? It's a weird way to put it I suppose. I need to be less afraid of spending more appropriate time on my art asking myself healthy questions.

Over the last week I've been in a pretty big low. My self esteem was practically non-existent. Somewhere in the last few years I lost all sense of my self while trying to please others in the pursuit of money. Speaking to my closest art friends made me realize that and I became envious of them. So much so that I can't even make a stroke without thinking "What will X think of this?". This feeling becomes so overwhelming that it sends me into panic attacks. I was confident when I was just taking commissions to make people happy, I'm good at it.

But now that I'm trying to learn who I am I'm terrified.

And that's ok. I'm not suppose to be perfect.

Thank you everyone for continuing to support my art!
