Hello Inkblot!! 💚 I'm really excited to make my first post here, since I've heard so many great things about this site. This is my mascot OC by the same name, which is representing me online. She's been through a lot of changes since I first made her in 2016, since I wasn't sure at the time what direction to take her design. All iterations of her has been a vague representation of my current aesthethic preferences and interests at the time, though it was never a conscious thing I put much thought into besides "huh, this might be cool/interesting/pretty!!". Some of her iterations explored some really weird ideas as I tried to make them work 😄 However, with this 2022 version, I returned to her original concept in 2016 and decided to take it in a completely different direction. I've been much more conscious about my design decisions and inspirations now, and I think she now better represents me as an artist. Everything in her design now has a thought out reason behind it, including my new watermark/logo signature that represents her and my art! I really went wild with this and decided I wouldn't change something because I think others wont like it, or if I don't think I would be able to draw it well. This is a very self-indulgent design, one I hope that I will learn a lot from drawing! Though if somebody else likes her too, then I will be overjoyed 😭💚 Thank you for reading and viewing!!
