2008- The year I was introduced to Manga's I used to read books quite a bit and just doodled what I could get down but reading Shonen Jump quite often really inspired me. I also loved to try and draw screenshots from Disney movies. I didn't have internet back in '08 so I just drew from any pictures I could find in books. 

2009- I still loved reading Shonen Jump but this was also the year I started getting really into rock music. Not just classic rock but stuff that's a little heavier eventually I found Metal and I loved it. Although this year really wasn't different for art work my interests were expanding and began to expand on my art. 

2010- This was the year I joined DeviantArt I wasn't fond of uploading my art I didn't feel like it was as good as everyone else's. I really regret not doing so I do wish I had a lot of my old pieces but I don't. The oldest art I have physically is from 2012. I can't say much for this year I just put things down on paper and quite a bit I looked into tutorial books.

2011- I love my best works from this year. Haku was and is my favorite I could never do it so good again. This was also a year I found Miyazaki movies and I loved them. Even though Spirited Away caught me the most. 

2012- I finally made an incarnation of myself on paper. Though it was just a wolf I grew to love her and her appearance. This was also the same year that I went and got a tablet. I had no clue what I was doing I was just so excited that I could finally dabble in color.

2013- A lot of emotional hardships during this year. I was definitely in between a rock and a hard place.  However with misery comes a lot of practice in art work which I did. I became quite a bit better with my tablet and my anatomy was improving as well. 

2014-I just kept on working on my art and anatomy during this year. I was still dealing with a lot of stuff emotionally but I kept working none the less and created quite a few good things during this year. My anatomy improved quite a bit as well however my shading was still flat. 

2015-Living life as a confused adult and just drawing what I could. My shading improved quite a bit during this year. It wasn't great it still isn't but much better than what I started out with. The work is good but it's not great. 

2016- Sitting her on my plateau. I'll get better on my problem areas eventually until then I'm sure there are people that like my work the way it is.

awesome! this is such a good idea to have hindsight also to see what has been made I will always like your art the way it is as much as the way you would like it to be!

I also wanted to see my own progression even though it doesn't seem like much. I wonder if I'll get better in the next few years.

this is a very lovely way to present a whole activity as well to see the ways in which the act of creating something in such simple ways can become a reality of its own as a body of work .. it never seems like much from the inside but for an interested audience this is very wonderful to see Wolfy it would seem inevitable that your art will become richer and more well informed  reaching as far as your curiosity and endeavors can imagine

I don't feel that it changed that much... However that's me looking at my own work with a critical eye
