<p>Welcome to my (new) art feed! It is heavily inspired by <ahref="https://deathsurplus.com/">DeathSurplus' art blog</a>– definitely go check out his page!</p>
<p>This page is intended to offer a shared space for all my projects without the need to create strictly-separated pages for each hobby. Some other pages on this website have been merged into this one; namely the "Small Projects" and "Drawing Gallery" pages, so don't be surprised if content from those pages shows up here.</p>
<p>I'll add some more of my past projects, new projects, and an option to filter by project type <i>soon™</i>. Maybe I'll also split the content into pages, if I ever figure out how to do that.</p>
<p>I <b>MAY</b> merge this with the <ahref="/projects">Projects</a> page, I've not yet decided.</p>

<p>Back in January, I was thinking to myself that I'd really like to learn to draw. It would have some practical benefits like potentially being able to draw concept art for my game, but ultimately I just liked the idea of drawing as a hobby. I doodled a few small things before deciding that I should challenge myself to draw something every single day for an entire month (4 weeks); <ahref="/blog/2026/0205">I documented the entire thing here</a>, but spoiler alert: I think I succeeded in learning to draw and I am now able to sketch like I was never able to before!</p>
