hi newgrounds!!!

this year's been a quiet one!! or at least it feels like it

i spent a lot of time this year working on myself. and also working on my cartoon but i wrote a whole post about that already last month lol

i did some fun stuff this year!! in march i visited my boyfriend, and in july i visited him again with a quick stop in toronto on the way there to hang out with some newgrounds peoples

i also drew ALL THIS ART!!

and i put out a couple short cartoons!

to be dead honest, i'm not too incredibly proud of the animations i posted this year, like they're fine but it all feels very ehh :P but i guess part of that is because im dedicating a lot more time and passion towards the larger cartoon im making with greta

another fun thing is i helped with art for GIMMIKO! im p happy with the bits i made for the demo and i'm even happier with the stuff i'm helping with for the game now (which ill post someday!!! after the game comes out!!!!)

this year felt really long for some reason. i think that's probly because a lot of stuff happened in my life outside of all this stuff. but it's all been for the better and i am growing up more and more each day

also it's my birthday today! december 25th 2023 marks my 21st trip around the sun.

hope everyone is having a good holiday! stay warm out there folks

sincerely,

amanda pollyanoid
