Getting on the horse again!


Overall, my project is going pretty well. All I’ve gotten so far is support from the people I’ve discussed it with, which is pretty encouraging. I had my first mentor meeting with April last Wednesday, and we got to work with a new art medium. I learned a new function on my art program recently, too! This project has been very educational for me so far, art-wise. I have gotten off-track with posting every day, though, and I think I need to keep the momentum going. What would help is if I started making posts ahead of time. I think I’m going to start making an extra drawing for every one I make so I can queue it-- that way the blog won’t wait for me to post.

  1. You're doing great Asha! I think a good next step would be figuring out how to get more Tumblr followers... any suggestions guys?

  2. It's hard to tell from your blog, but if you aren't adding tags to your posts, I would suggest doing so. You know, stuff like #inspiration, #comic, #feminism, or #lgbt, to name a few :) It's surprising how many people will find your blog just through a few tags.

    Also, may I ask what art program you're using? It looks like you have some pretty neat brushes in your arsenal :)

    1. Thanks, Marina! Yeah, I do add tags to posts- it's kind of hard to think of what to tag exactly, but i usually tag #inspirational, #self help and #self care. I'm using Paint Tool Sai to make my art but I'm still pretty new at it, so I'm contstantly trying new brushes!

  3. I like the new tab "The Tumblr where I post the stuff," it is super helpful and aptly named ;-)
