14x20 | Then vs. Now

[sandy79.livejournal.com]

Like many others, my first foray into graphics were icons (which I still love doing to pieces!). My journey started in December 2015, and the first icons I made back then are a testament to the fact that I didn't know what I was doing, apparently XD *cringes*

The first full set for a 20in20 challenge followed the same month, starring Matt Bomer

I dabbled around in this area for the following two years, until I discovered the awesomeness of landcomms for me XD I joined not only landofart, but also gameofcards that year, but I gotta admit, while gameofcards (and other landcomms I joined later) pushed me in the right direction in terms of art-making, landofart really made me leap over the proverbial borders of what I can make. I never, ever thought I could make, let's say, tumblr graphics or wallpapers, and yet, 3 years later, I'm making them on a regular basis XD (larger graphics clickable for full-size)

From the first year (Phase 9) - TV posters and typography
