BWN: Convention Calendar
Bi-Weekly Wednesday Newsletter no. 122[GREETING GOES HERE] What's Going OnConCalyThese past 2 weeks Sanskar and I have been working on a convention explorer/planner It's been pretty fun! I feel like it kind of fits well with my skillset But I'm learning a lot. A lot of technical stuff but also thinking deeper about specific interactions and little details I really took my time to make things look good. Something I've been thinking about is "if it's worth doing, then it's worth doing right" I'll post the link next time cause it looks trash on mobile (or just ask), and I should have things at about 80% by then. Rn it's at like 30-40% What I've been thinking aboutI'm learning that I quite like working Been thinking a lot about "saying no." I want to focus on compounding the good things that I will align with instead of being distracted....but I kind of suck at saying no rn. Along those lines, I'm been thinking about learning to find the high ROI things to work on. Thank you!Happy Easter! Next Newsletter is April 30th! Shop | Previous posts | Main website |

Bi-Weekly Wednesday Newsletter no. 126 [GREETING GOES HERE] What's Going On My own website I made my portfolio finally lol. It's not really targeted for work, but the structure resonated with me.

So the all the colors and fonts change on click. I spent a good amount of time writing out each of the learnings Mudboard I think the launch went as...
Bi-Weekly Wednesday Newsletter no. 125 [GREETING GOES HERE] What's Going On Back to drawing I've been lowkey avoiding drawing. The context switching is a lot, so I've been putting off a lot of commissions. But I have to say that once I got to it, I'm pretty darn happy with how they turned out! Especially this one This one was nice too. Practicing those lasso tool skills This one was for myself. From a photo of when I climbed a mountain Concaly Idk if I mentioned earlier but I got 1...
