Exploring Sketches in short videos
I’ve been giving social media another go to gain some exposure for my art. The dream would be for me to make some sales. I’ve been reading up on growth strategies and I’m going to try and execute them.
The focus for this month is to be consistent. I’m doing an old challenge called #sketchtember in this challenge I believe you draw sketches or write a character sketch for September. In my case, I’m drawing sketches to stay consistent with posting.
It’s not easy. I’ve started a TikTok and uninstalled TikTok from my phone about twice since the start of this month. Even in restricted mode it still shows me some disturbing videos after a few swipes. So I end up uninstalling it from my phone. I’m still on Instagram posting mostly reels. So far I haven’t gone into the disturbing side of Instagram (yet).
As of today, I’ve gain 8 followers on TikTok and 3 on Instagram. The sketches are easy content to feed into reels because I’m not too attached to them. They are designed to be disposable content with a very short lifespan of 24hrs.

Exploring my art and what I want to say
I’ve been thinking a lot about how my art has evolved over the years and what it says. I realize that I’ve spent a lot of time practicing the art of adapting styles. Practicing for a vision that I have yet to fully formalize and execute.
Some things have fueled my art journey which is based around life changes and the time that I have available. I became a mother of two with a full-time job that makes the original plans I had for some projects not feasible because I have not been able to maintain consistency in the creative process; constantly creating, learning, and executing with consistency.
There is also the fact that I’m not the same person I was when I started some of these projects. There are some topics related to my life experiences that are now harder to absorb and transpose into art. I’m not at a place presently to work through them.
So where does that leave me with my art?
Incorporate practice and adaptation of my art into a project that matches who I am now.
