Entry 20: Improvement

   So, during Spring Break I am usually super bored and have absolutely nothing to do. I tend to look around my room trying to figure out something to do. On my walls I have a bunch of old drawings taped to it, so I came up with an idea. I decided I wanted to redraw a few of my drawings just to compare how much I've improved over a course of a year or more.
 


  I redrew a few things but I'll share one of the things I drew. The first picture is the old drawing from about a year and a half ago of a character, Denmark, from an anime called Hetalia. The second picture is the new that I drew up on March 23, 2016. Although it isn't colored, you can still see how much of a difference there is. My style has become so much more characteristic and to my liking. I've also noticed that I struggle less with trying to make it look how I want it to look. It's honestly incredible to see an actual change! 
   


Looking at it really helped me feel motivated to continue to draw more and more often and on a daily basis. If you ever have a really bad art block or even writers block, just look back at your old work and try to redo it. When you compare the two afterwards you'll be surprised by how much you've improved, because I know I was.
