Description

I was doing some doodling during Sunday school again today. First I started out doing LoveNote, but I messed up on his neck proportions, and since I did all of the sketching in ballpoint, the whole thing was doomed so I just started doing a random bunnybird instead. Now, since I am left-handed, most everything that I mindlessly draw ends up facing towards the right. In one way or another, that fact recalled to my mind another bunnybird ink sketch that I had done quite a while ago, and I suddenly realized how similar the drawings were to each other. When I got home and found that ink sketch sitting amongst piles of my other nearly-ancient drawings, I discovered a surprising and very encouraging fact: that I have actually improved quite a ways in only about 7 months.

To me, this is huuuge, because I generally feel dissatisfied with my art, even though it's more of a casual affair to me. It's nice to know that I'm actually going somewhere after all....
