tbh mine wasn't good at all.
struggled really bad to get over my burnout to even get through most of my commission work load that im super behind in.

then food stamps dropping bomb of them cutting covid relief funds because we're in "post covid"

and more relatives criticizing I'm not doing enough even with art as my job. so overall not great.

only positive is I've enjoyed playing sims 4.
hoping February goes smoother.

been doing digital art for over a decade and it's also my job.

but it all depends what you want out of it.
if you want to draw well and such, studying the fundamentals is essential.

if not overall just have fun, figure out what brushes you like, what how to use your program etc.

how long to get the hang of it depends on how often you practice but you can't ever master it. you can always learn more. it usually takes years to get good at a skill

@Totalanimefan: will do, but not sure how much I'll afford as my main focus is art books which are between $30-50 each.

@macsen191: I completely understand, my mom passed away in 2021. I ended up oversleeping to heal and cope with the grief.

@Totalanimefan: For me it's not dry skin but an actual skin condition which gets super red, bumpy, etc.
Nope. Facial washes and moisturizers are kinda a toss up. things often flare up my rosacea or lotions from drug stores bother my other skin condition
which will flare that up or make it feel super greasy and oily.
Nothing has worked thus far so i won't be using any drug store type of skin care and going to a self-made small business instead.

@Bonnie: yeah, that makes sense.
I hope it goes well.

@totalanimefan: drugstore options don't actually work for me.
so i can't really use the options they have
due to my skin condition, the options flare it up and make it worse.
