ℤ ᴢᴜʀᴛʟᴇ ɪꜱ ᴛʏᴘɪɴɢ… Art Summary because everyone else is doing one :0 ————————————————————————— ℤ ɢʀᴇᴇᴛɪɴɢꜱ! Hi, person who just happened to stumble upon my project! This is an Art Summary of 2023, just showcasing some of my best pieces for the month. This is my version of the summary, so… enjoy! ————————————————————————— ℤ ꜰᴏʀᴇᴡᴏʀᴅ… I know I said last year was hectic, I believe me when I say this year was just as crazy. Woah, to think I progressed my drawing skills that much in like, 2 months is incredible. Hey though, I’m not just here to talk about the drawings. That will be in the ‘Notes and ‘Credits’. But here, I’ll talk about, well, the whole year of 2023. ————————————————————————— ℤ ᴡʜᴀᴛ ᴀ ɢʀᴇᴀᴛ ʏᴇᴀʀ! I still remember the last day of 2022 like it was yesterday. I remember making the ‘2022-2023 i guess’ project for the Scratch Studio. I remember feeling so happy when one of the curator people accepted it, because that was really one of the first times I ever let the public purposely look at a project of mine. Since then, so much of my works have been viewed by many people. Well, it may not be much, but every time someone hearts a project of mine, I feel… really good inside. Like someone actually saw my hard work, /appreciates/ it. During a time of the year, when I started posting my drawings in Scratch, I said to myself, “Wait, why am I posting this on a coding app? Why not on an actual drawing site?” I answered myself, “Probably because Scratch helps navigate drawings and art much faster, and you can code art to do things, like a quick animation, maps, and galleries.” And thus, in Scratch, I also use Vector to make art (This skill comes easy for me, and so, I also do well with Blender's 3D Modeling). Some of which can be seen in the Summary, although I tried to pick all /drawing/ drawings. I’ll put some links in at the bottom of my article, for whoever wants to see some of my Vector artworks. I promise that my traditional art is like, 1000X better than my digital drawing- I’ll post some right after I finish this project! Oh yeah, /and/ I got to share some of my writing works on Scratch too, and got some really good feedback! I started this account for school coding projects. I’m ending this with amazing changes to the drawing, writing, and storytelling community~~~ So… that’s about all I have to say! This year, I achieved some pretty great stuff, won lots of awards for my traditional and realism drawings, passed extremely hard exams, and scored top marks in classes. Hope that everyone is doing well, and has had a great year too! ^^ ————————————————————————— ℤ ʟɪɴᴋꜱ ᴛᴏ ᴀʀᴛᴡᴏʀᴋ ᴘɪᴇᴄᴇꜱ <3 Example Studio (Consisting most of Payments, Art Attacks, M.Y.O.E.s, Contest Entries (all of them I won-), and Design Class Homeworks) = https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/34367318 Vector Art = https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/815905024 https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/891496287 Art Attack Character Storage = https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/869247037 Some cool art tutorials! = https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/787534799 https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/791749934 https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/791749817 W.T.A.

So much good has happened, and in the midst of the bad, there is hope. Without sadness, we can never feel true joy, huh? Ok have achieved so much, learned and practiced a lot. The result? Abnormal improvement. The impact of just trying and trying can do a lot, trust me, I know! I am looking forward to 2024, and hope that you are too. Happy holidays! ————————————————————————— ℤ ꜰᴀʀᴇᴡᴇʟʟ! Thanks for taking your time and reading all of this!

It was made for my very first drawing tutorial, and I think it turned out AMAZINGLY! I was feeling like I finally knew how to navigate Vector and bend it to do my bidding, lol. -> Character design by @ZebraCream -> Character owned by @ZebraCream February: - Umm… well, this one I rushed- I remember that day… I did the Kitsune in a set for a drawing contest. My entry took like, idk, 5 minutes?! And it was my first time (IK CRAZY) drawing on a computer so- very shaky! (Finished it on another device, but er…) Anyways, I feel like February was the time where I first started drawing actual /drawing/ drawings on Scratch, and competing in contests to win stuff. Hm! -> Character design by Uplift Games (not even on this site lol) from Roblox -> I own a Kitsune in Adopt Me so… character owned by @ZebraCream March: - LOVE this little dragon. March was the time for… *drumroll* please… more art contests XD. Here, I found the art of - Alternate Drawings -. This little spooky was a sneak peek of a shading skill-in-progress. -> [Ditto] Character design by Uplift Games (not even on this site lol) from Roblox -> Owned by Uplight Games from Roblox April: - I wasn’t really active during this month, ‘cause of Spring Break, but a day when I came on Scratch, I made a project featuring an Earth Turtle design for Earth Day. My class was also making an Earth Day door for a contest, and that also served as an idea for that door! -> Character design by @ZebraCream -> Character owned by @ZebraCream May: - OMG THIS WAS THE MONTH I FINALLY RELEASED MY TURTLE DRAWING TUTORIAL AFTER 3 MONTHS OF SUFFERING- AHHH THIS BEAN WAS SO CUTE TO DRAW! Still doing Vector, although the new turtle and old were both amazing in drawing-skill-wise! -> Character design by @ZebraCream -> Character owned by @ZebraCream June: - This was the month I actually made a Character Storage, because this was the month I joined @Gamegirl555 . I really started to push myself to make /actual /art// art, and thus, I made a storage so people could attack me. (I also started using Blender!) -> Character design by @ZebraCream -> Character owned by @ZebraCream July: - July. This was the month that I actually countered someone’s attack. I was really proud of myself, as this was /literally/ my very first digital artwork. I didn’t really /get/ how to work Kleki (my drawing site) yet, but this was my very first time so… it was pretty good! -> Character design by @-LovelyLemon- -> Character owned by @-LovelyLemon- August: - This was the month where I just joined some art/ design classes! The poodle that is in the box was a design make for @0utlandish- ‘s design class. Yeah… my eye style is /not/ consistent, lol. And yes, I do draw decent realistic animals!!! -> Character design by @ZebraCream -> Character owned by @ZebraCream September: - Time to talk about -du dunnna nuh… the M.Y.O.s! In case you didn’t know, M.Y.O. stands for ‘Make Your Own’. I’ve already seen and participated in countless of these, and I am actually also making various M.Y.O.s! The species from this box is a Gwormlen, species by @Lagonish . I was really happy about this design, because I made it an artsy kind of style, returning my favourite colours; mint green, lilac purple, and crimson red. I named my Gwormlen, Festivea, because I love the holidays! :> -> Character design by @ZebraCream -> Character owned by @ZebraCream October: - Spooky season in the house! This was like, the very first time I actually did some kind of thing where I had to /give/ in art for a design. I did a Gachapon by @-CaramelKittens- . It was amazing! -> Character design by @imark2029 -> Character owned by @-CaramelKittens- November: - So, on forth came November, and that resulted in me doing more and more and even more payments for O.T.A. (Offer To Adopt)s. This is one that I’m really proud of. I just found out how to… blend! -> Character design by @Inked_Array -> Character owned by @Lemon-aid293 December: - Yes. The best art of all. I found out how to completely fill a base, and to layer. And, to top that off, I found out how to make borders. Thus, creating my PFP, featuring my main OC, Fizzy Lemonade. -> Character design by @ZebraCream -> Character owned by @ZebraCream ————————————————————————— ℤ ꜱᴏ, ᴛʜɪꜱ ɪꜱ ᴛʜᴇ ᴇɴᴅ.
