So 20 years ago is when I signed up to join Deviantart, which started my digital artistic journey.
Its been quite the journey and I'm still walking the path painting the world as I move along.

Wanted to show a couple pieces from 20 years ago and compare with a couple new ones.

First drawing I ever uploaded, ok the drawing was made in 2002 but was uploaded 2003 so it counts


This guy is very special cause he is still around, this is Sniper this is the first drawing of him


My first art piece done with a tablet!


And here are three new pieces



Here's Sniper 20 years later!


The most popular piece in my gallery so far with almost 10k views


And here's to many more years!

Time sure flies! Neat to see your oldest stuff to modern day.  Computers have allowed us to easily save this stuff. Thanks for sharing. That first drawing you did with a tablet, third image down, is very cute!

2 full decades is something to be admired when it comes to sticking to art. Your progress shows in your work and I’m impressed thoroughly by it.

A long time.  Just as long as most of the artists here.  Many have been doing it for a long time.  You never let go of your passions.

Congrats. It's true.  Passionate people draw or write for their whole lives.  I started first drawing and sharing my art in 1996!  Wow. Time flies. Nice to see the progression here!

Also realized I've been a member of the sneeze fetish community for 19 years, signed up to the blue forum in 2004.

At first I just wrote stuff, then I was requested by Rusty to draw my boy Skyiler sneeze, I was very timid and nervous about posting it, but it was a request, must please the client.
So here's it is, it was made in 2010, lets compare with the latest one



He hasn't changes too much just kind of grew into his body lol



Been a fun ride!

Also that drabble thread I got going was started in 2016

This community is so warm and welcoming and very supportive, it has helped me through some very rough times

Thank y'all for existing!

That is so neat to see the comparison.  I think it;'s neat you don't view old stuff as "bad" either. So many artists are ashamed of their old work, but they shouldn't be.  It's something to celebrate how far they've come, new techniques they've learned. 

Very cool!

Its a reason why I never delete any art from my gallery to look back and see the progress
