Painting again! Here's a blog post and a Baldr portrait

I am ready to paint again.

I've been reflecting on what's been going on in my life and how to make it better. I realized that if I want to enjoy painting again, then I need to solve whatever is bothering me in real life...sooo I did exactly that! Along the way, I also developed a daily routine to help stay active and healthy. I don't know how to eloquently write down my thoughts, so here's basically everything I want to say for today.

• I gave myself a daily checklist to stay productive. Been working really well.

• I overhauled my work space so I can paint sitting and lying down (I had to paint only standing up before). It is physically exhausting to stand up and paint after walking around all day, so I made painting a more relaxing experience.

• I am posting very quick (1 to 2 minutes) daily sketches on Discord. These sketches are terrible, but the purpose is to keep them as casual as possible to stay active and avoid burn out. I'll post a compilation on Patreon if anyone is interested.

• I'm going to try and make at least one "Safe for work" picture before I start painting the lewd stuff. My goal is to study character designs, practice, and have something non-lewd that I can share with people. Today you get a SFW Baldr portrait, tomorrow you get a NSFW Baldr paizuri. I'd like to make these SFW portraits a weekly thing both on and outside of patreon.

• My artwork is going to be all over the place for now. I have a list of characters I need to paint (like the polls, older WIP's, etc), but I am letting my mood guide me on who to paint next.

And that's it for now! I don't know if this post is coherent and makes sense, but I am really happy to paint again.

I am incredibly sorry for having you all wait for so long, but thank you all so, so much for your support. See you tomorrow!
