struggles and progress
So here we are, the last day of this challenge. What began out of desperation has evolved into something truly remarkable. A year ago, I was struggling—both financially and mentally. But I pushed through, and when one door closed, I found my way back in through the window. I kept going, and now, one year later, it’s all paid off.
This challenge has been full of highs and lows, and I pushed myself beyond just illustrations. I worked on logos, branding, UI, full product mockups, and presentations. The only area I didn’t explore was animation—it’s just too time-consuming!
Along the way, I’ve connected with so many amazing people who’ve supported me—whether through simple likes on my work, collaborating on projects, or offering mentorship. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to everyone who’s been part of my journey this year.
So, what’s next? I’m taking a little break. I need some time to recover from this non-stop drive and refocus on my next steps. I’ve developed some exciting ideas during this challenge that I’m eager to bring to life, and I also want to return to exploring new creative directions.
This piece represents all the challenges I’ve completed—from 2017, 2018, and now, this final one in 2024.
THANK YOU, EVERYONE, AGAIN! ????????????????
For the last time in this challenge…

day 366/366
