Hello there! (/^▽^)/

Hope your day is going well so far~ It feels incredible and unbelievable all at once to say this, but we've reached the final postcard of this year! I wanted to finish the year with a bang and create something that felt both complete in closing out the current year and hopeful for the new year on the horizon.

It's interesting thinking back on my original intention for this series (headphones) and seeing how it has changed over this year. It became a lesson of learning when to let go and recognizing that change is a natural part of any creative process. I think I've learned a great deal from exploring my style through this series and have come to a better understanding about how and why I create art. If there's one thing I've learned is that it's worth it to explore your life experiences and your truth through your creations. 

This piece was inspired by the bright, fuzzy glow of images on old vhs tapes. I don't know the science behind it but when you watch vhs movies/videos the image can sometimes appear doubled and granulated creating this really interesting glow effect. Modern TVs and recording devices create sharp and beautiful crystal clear images, but there's something incredibly nostalgic and warm when it comes to older technology that can't be replicated in the same way. 

Here's the process gif for this piece! It went through quite a few changes throughout its creation but I'm happy with how it turned out. ^^

If you'd like a Patreon-exclusive postcard print of this piece, make sure to change your pledge to $10 before the end of December! <3 

I greatly appreciate and am deeply moved by your feedback on my post regarding Patreon's changes. There's no immediate plan to jump platforms, but if and when I make that decision you will all be the first to know. 

Thank you so much for your support and hope you have a lovely week! ^^

It's always so lovely to hear your how you've been growing and what a beautiful/hopeful process it is. <3 The red glow in this month's postcard definitely brings back the nostalgia of the old VHS tapes : }
