2021 review

2020 review.

A photo of me on my 33rd birthday

Highlights of 2021

  • Making new friends. Meeting up for brunches. Commiserating with each other during lockdown.
  • Learning to solve the Rubik's cube.
  • Getting vaccinated!
  • Drawing on my iPad. Sharing my work on Instagram. Trying out abstract art and vintage styles. Buying too many Procreate brushes and making some of my own. Vector drawing on my iPad.
  • Friends who inspired me to keep making art. Making wallpapers for my phone. Friends who used my wallpapers and cheered me on when I shared new ones.
