One year illustrating in steemit

in #art7 years ago

Receive a cordial greeting, dear reader, I hope you have had an excellent time in December and that, in turn, you have fulfilled many goals of the previous years, I wish you a happy new year and a prosperous and pleasant new year!

     For me the art is wonderful, I finished and started this year drawing, drawing for new content and for my own pleasure, art is for me a marvelous means of communication, often subliminal and other times more direct with the concept or content that it wants to convey, I want to thank everyone who has ever supported my content, because they have helped me grow and improve every day. Last year I discovered steemit, thanks to a very close and dear friend, who has been for me for many years who can be found on this platform as: @victor-ventum, he stopped publishing a long time ago, but I also thank him have told me about this spectacular site.

     I will talk a little about my first year in steemit; my friend introduced me to steemit as an opportunity to earn money writing about content that was to his liking at the same time that you knew people with the same tastes and hobbies, at that time he had not entered the platform just knew of the existence of steemit through a friend of hers I must admit that I joined steemit being excepted, how is it possible to get paid for writing about any topic? That was a recurring question in my head, but living in Venezuela I saw a new and sensational alternative to acquire money and ... What a surprise!

     A pleasant surprise I took to see the great opportunity that steemit was presenting me, without having a minimal idea of ​​what to talk, much less that I should start with the so-called "introduceyourself" as the first post (I did not know what to introduce myself, I just knew I should speak something), my first post was talking about a photo session I had done with my friends for a project of the university which had as main theme the clown phobia, but that post did not have very good reception, however, continue publishing because I liked the platform, my content was completely in Spanish, I realized that I could upload my illustrations so "I had already found my way", it was great to see how people began to receive my work in a good way, Subsequently I was diversifying with the languages ​​to reach the English speaking public and a little to the French speaking public, it was interesting and I was excited to be able to contact from different continents and see that we share similar tastes and objectives.

     Despite the fall of steem I still consider steemit as my source of employment, I currently share illustrated subjects, for example I have talked about philosophical and controversial issues while I make an illustration for each section in which the post I am going to publish is divided. In that moment and really it is something that I love, since it has given me the opportunity to combine my love for the arts with topics of my interest. Steemit has been a great help at the mental and monetary level, it has made me research and find new alternatives to share more interesting content with you, also thanks to this platform I have greatly improved my illustrations, since I was "forced" to evolve, to experiment with different styles of drawing to create new ways, to read and experience new facets that have led me to grow not only in this beautiful platform, but as a person, nowadays I hope to continue meeting people and to be able to create more interesnes content and equally I look forward to the rise of the cryptocurrency that manages this platform.

     Many times during the year I was in this way, like the gif I designed up here, on the verge of "madness" due to anxiety attacks, problems, among others, but ... we all have problems and it is something normal and natural, in My case the arts have been very helpful and joining this platform to share with you different topics and establish debates about it has helped me, every time I make a new content and see how it felt is rewarding, I feel good and inspired to continue creating, to live from art is something that I would like, I would love, that's why I see an alternative on the internet to achieve my dream and steemit has been my impulse, because before knowing this platform, I knew I wanted to be an illustrator, but I did not know how to take advantage of my artistic gifts, given that the artists are mostly very poor salaried or end up working on things that have nothing to do with art and it is something very disappointing, because many people They work in areas that do not correspond to them and feel bad about it.

🌷 Achievements of last Year!!! 🌷

     Every time I see artists who are famous and recognized I am very happy, because he is an artist less than he is not working on something do not like, maybe if you see my past publications you can notice the evolution that my artistic style has had, I have improved a lot and above all in the elaboration of faces that did not encourage me to make realistic faces because I never got it right, but now I have improved a lot, the illustration above is from a musician called "Borgore" and I am pleased with the result even though I have a long term to travel to be able to draw good faces. Needless to say, last year was a year of changes for me personally, emotionally, physically and mentally, a very good year to tell the truth.

     Last year began with my culmination of the university, I finally managed to finish my studies of graphic design, a great achievement for the list, I also started to help my mother with payments related to house cats, food, phone, among others, I had the opportunity to share many interesting moments with my friends and help many of them who are still in college, I met many new people in real life and through steemit, one of those people was @purapapita who It has helped me a lot on the platform, showing me that there are many good people to meet and with whom to start a beautiful friendship. At the same time they have reduced my anxiety problems.

     Currently I am 22 years old and I can say that I like what I do and that steemit has helped me become known as an illustrator, in the future I would like to work on something related to illustration and editorial design, while doing a course in animation, I think that the world of animation is also something marvelous, for me animation is bringing art to "life".

I would also like to be able to buy a phone, since I do not have a cell phone for two years because of how expensive everything is in this country, I would like to continue contributing with my mother and the expenses of my house and growing through the internet as a designer and illustrator . Another of my goals for this year is to be able to take a course in digital animation, in order to create my own animations.

No sabía de los ataques de ansiedad, si reconozco que tenias una situación complicada, pero siendote sincero no me preocupe porque desde que te conozco eres una guerrera, me refiero a que siempre resuelves, más bien te considero muy relajada, me agrada tu personalidad es como si aunque existan 10000 problemas, tienes 99999999 soluciones y eso te convierte en alguien especial. ♥
