Practicing is one of the hardest things for me to do. I have a tendency to be too hard on myself. I hope that's not a problem you have, and if it is I hope the forum might help remind you to be kind to yourself. I like your art, it's cute. I wish you all the best in building up your art skills. Procreate is such a neat tool.
I really wish people wouldn't blare Christmas music everywhere soon as fall ends. I wonder if stores feel that it will encourage customers to buy more? Like, reminding them to get gifts or splurge a little more cause hey it's about that time. I haven't been in any stores for a long while. But I still hear the songs everywhere because of advertisements. I've gotten used to it over the years, so it doesn't bother me all that much. But I don't even celebrate Christmas so it's extra annoying when I find I have a holiday song stuck in my head because it's been played six times in the past half hour. Make more holiday songs y'all got like four and it's driving all retail employees insane when they gotta hear 'em all day.

I wonder when the tradition of playing Christmas music in stores started. Like, what was the first store to do that? I bet they had no clue what they unleashed into the world that day...

@ChiffonOrange: Aw man Sonic Underground and Winx club were the best! Who was your fave Winx character? I can't really remember but I think mine was Flora. I want to watch that show again.

I loved Totally Spies. I'd run around my house pretending I was Sam lol.
I have a bad habit of picking up hobbies and then dropping them. At the start of quarantine I went through a lot, but now I've slowed down a bit. I had been learning how to knit, and I really want to pick that back up. I struggle to have the energy to even just focus on the task, so I need to remind myself that it's alright if I just work on things for a few moments here and there. I'm really into drawing and painting. I've found a lot of ideas that I wanna draw yesterday, so I think I'll have fun with that today.

Oh Hobbit stuff would be awesome! I was trying to think of other books I'd think it'd be cool to theme stuff off of but all I can think of is the Phantom Tollbooth for some reason...

@Nephila: Howdy. The only other avatar site I'm on is Dappervolk. If you have any suggestions for others to look into, lemme know. I kinda ran out of things to do like a week into quarantine so I'm pretty open to suggestions lol.

I really love the wonderland event items! I'm new so I just got around to them. They're so creative.

Hello, I don't know much about this place yet, but it seems cool. I like the little event thing going on right now, that's neat. Someone on Dappervolk mentioned this site in passing and I decided to check it out. Hope everyone is having a good day today!
