Christmas Reflections

art, sketches, Christmas

Christmas Reflections: Well, tomorrow's Christmas, and I'm so excited to be celebrating it with my family! But as Christmas draws near and the New Year dawns upon us, I can't help but think back on this crazy year.
I finally realized that animation was my dream, after three years of not knowing what I wanted to do. I got my first job, and despite feeling incredibly unhappy through most of it, I learned a lot about people in general (they're all horrible creatures-just kidding) and myself. This year was also a year of transitions-of living without my twin on a daily basis, going from traditional media to digital media in art, and finally switching from a watcher to a player with We Happy Few
And, of course, this was also my first presidential election to vote in. Why oh why did I get stuck with this one? And why oh why did we choose Trump as our president?! Anger and fear aside, I feel like this may well have been one of the most important elections I'll ever vote in. And all I'll say is I'll be glad when we don't have an arrogant carrot in the White House.
While I'm very excited for 2017, I can't deny that I'm also a little afraid, mainly because of the above subject. But the only way to move forward is to continue on and change.
And boy are some big changes coming in a week.....more details next week!
'Til then, merry Christmas, everyone.
