Hey everyone,

since the year 2021 has been (finally) burried, I wanted give you a short outlook on what will come this year. For that I will give you an overview about all things I have in mind for 2022.

I’ve put some thoughts into how I will proceed with the project this year. Last year was dedicated to the project Celestia’s Journey and since I really started loving the story and the characters, I will continue in 2022. To be honest, I wasn't aware that my OCs would be so well recieved. And even if I didn't came as far as I wanted to be right now, it turned out better than I could've imagined before. That's why I’ve worked out a short plan which I will stick to for this year. I will go in a slightly different direction. My comic didn’t do very well and I think that I will not continue this in the future. My problem with it was that the pacing was way too slow for how fast the story continued in my head. That’s why I thought about writing down parts of the story and draw illustrations along the way. It will be some sort of illustrated story, if you will. With that I will be able to pin down major events with a combination of scenery drawings with my characters and also have the chance to add smaller sidestories here and there. It will be similar to what I did last year, but with a consistent throughline. I also plan to do character sheets, and profiles about the main characters to fill this up some of the gaps and give a better overview. I think that this will fill out most of my drawing time I've dedicated to the story and I hope you like the ideas so far :-)

Some of my activities shifted to my Discord-Server where I will mostly put my stuff about Celestia's Journey from now on. But don't worry. There won't be any changes here on NewGrounds. Most of the drawings will be submitted here as well. But I noticed that it is much easier to announce and discuss things in a small group on discord. So if you want to join or just look at some other peoples great art, just swing by. I want that everyone there is having a good time and benefits from an active and creative community. So yea my Discord won't be only about my project but more about artists and fellows who are interested in art as a whole.

Last year was quite a blast. I've met a lot of great artists and fun people to stay around with. I've done quite a few Art Trades and I'm thrilled to do more of them. I also plan to reach out to other artists but mainly to my fellows to do some great collabs and trades together. I think that this will be a nice thing also to either feature other people I respect and whoreship but also to get in contact with people who might also be interested in my stuff as well :3

Aside from all the ideas I have this year will be quite stressful for me but I noticed that it doesn't make sense to turn down my whole personal life just to work, eat and sleep. So I will always make some time to draw. Things might be a bit less frequently, but I will continue drawing for sure :)

With that being said, have a great time here and enjoy the art!
