TomMagenta

Yeeeaaaaahhhhhh, so not gonna lie - I've noticed that my page's performance since I started updating again has been, well, -abysmal- lately (my latest piece got 3 views in a day wat?), so I'm at a loss at what to do to get more attention.

This takes me back to what my Illustration tutor said to me when I showed him my (now defunct) Tumblr page - "It's good, but it's all been done before." That's my work in a nutshell - none of it's original. I mean, it -is-, but you can easily find much better stuff out there - things that have a lot more passion, thought and imagination in them. Why pick a shortbread from a barrel of cookies?

So, even though I still intend to put up the stuff I did during my last hiatus over the next week or so, I'm gonna hit the hay again so I can work on making my art more appealling. I've gotta be honest - I thought I was doing it right lately, though it's hard to describe how. I guess I'm still screwing up in some way, because as confident as I am with my skills now, I'm still no better off - in some cases, worse off - than I was before.

Soooooo yeah, I tried guys. I'll try harder.
