°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:・°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:・ Saw so many other mentors doing this so I thought I'd hop on as well Mentees: @luneraptor @Digi_I-Ialo Throughout the duration of this program, I encourage you guys to chat here to get any feedback on your pieces ^^ Timezone- UTC-4 (EDT) First off, I'd like to say how excited I am to be your mentor! And I would LOVE for you to introduce yourself in the comments! ig it only makes sense if I do my intro first-- Hi! My name is Birdie, and I've been drawing digitally for about 5 years now. I first got into drawing when I saw a gatch edit at 8 (I wish I was joking) I specialize in human/humanoid characters in an anime art style and I also love drawing dragons and birds. Everything you wish to share or omit are your choice! A little side note, I'd also be happy to help other artists but please refrain from using this chat as it was specifically made for the program. I will also be prioritizing my assigned mentees I also hope that in the coming months, I will be posting more tutorials for this program to help other artists as I can only give 1 on 1 feedback to so many people anywaysss so happy to meet everyone! :D Note: I didn't really know where or how I should put this, but it feels important to my mentees and the program hosts or whoever cares ig to know this lol But recently, I been kinda struggling with my mental health, I don't want to get into the specifics but I think its just a build up of stress (school kicking my bum rn) and many, many other personal factors. I still wish to stay active on scratch for this program, but I will also be putting my health above all else. Especially considering that I am HELLA busy during the winter with my sport season starting, and other activities, I think its important to put out that my personal management and wellbeing will come first. I think the past year, I've experienced my happiest moments, but I also went through some of the worst times of my life. Recently, I think I've experienced something that was kinda like my wake up call that pushed me to look back and digest what literally just happened with my life. So yeah, didn't want this project to end off on this note but uhmmm take care of ur mental health :D
