I'm MJL, and I've decided to make things.
I've spent a long time and effort (far too much) trying to monetise and force a creative career, even though the vast majority of things I made were very, very bad.
This led me to get so fed up, I mostly stopped making things for a while :(. But I know that I definitely do want to make things. Perhaps the fear of failure or not being considered 'good enough' is what made things worse.
So, I've decided to just make things, for fun! :) I'll try to always have a project going on, but my most important goal is to learn new skills and try to make new things. For example, I've never been good at illustration or pixel art, so I decided that my first project would be to make my face!
I'm pretty proud of it, I even got my pimples from not practising proper skincare.
I'm extremely lucky to have a wonderful and supportive boyfriend, and he certainly knows better than I do what makes good art.
Everything I post on here will be my learning/passion projects and will always be free! I hope you can find enjoyment from it :)
