Summary 2025

 HELLO!

It became a tradition for me to start a new year on the blog with a brief summary. It's about time to remember works I did in 2025, and also consider things which might happen in 2026 on an a-r-tistic blog.

SO, LET'S BEGIN.

Summary 2024

 HELLO!

 

So, as usual in the beginning of the new year I will briefly summarise what happened on the a-r-tistic blog in previous year. I'll try to bring up threads concerning changes on the blog, and also potential things I would like to do in 2025.

SO, LET'S BEGIN!

It's time to summarise my activity on the a-r-tistic blog in 2023.

So, let's begin!

Summary 2022

 HELLO!

Previous summaries appeared at the beginning of January. This time I took a rest from blogging and decided to show summary of 2022 in my a-r-tistic blog in the February. 

So, let's start!

• In 2022 I published 23 posts. This year I made lots of graphics and pastels. Collages made an appearance, too.
• I was able to accomplish 2 aims - a Dragon and Pandora. Now there are new aims - a picture of a horse, and also a Cityscape. Regarding to an illustration to Shostakovich's Waltz no. 2 I decided to change this aim because somewhere along the line I lost desire to make this. I'm sorry. I came to conclusion that it still be an illustration to piece of music - and I would choose one of Joe Hisaishi's compositions.

SUMMARY 2021

 Hello in the New Year!

In this very beginning of the year I would like to briefly summarise my activity in 2021.

Let's go!

• This year I published 24 posts on this blog, and it's a new record. 
• I made small changes on the blog. One of them happened at the end of the right sidebar, and it was called: a-r-thoughts.
• I've accomplished 2 aims from my list this year. I'm glad that I draw the portrait of Hikaru Masai, and "pastelled" a portrayal of a Samurai. Now the new aims became: the Portrayal of  Pandora, and a dragon. I hope that this year I'll be able to create an illustration to Shostakovich's Waltz no. 2 too.

Summary of 2020

 HELLO!

It's time for the second summary on this blog. During writing the first one I thought I should take a fresh look on certain matters and remind myself of them. It emerged that it was necessary to understand this year was full of experimenting and searching.

So, let's start!

• This year I published 23 posts and - so far - it's a record! Yay!
• In the end of October I published the 100th post! This little jubilee is also noteworthy.
• I changed a few things in order to improve blog's functioning. For example I shifted a bit blog's visual design. Plus, I've made a division on the right sidebar - I've separated Finished Aims from My Cycles... And I think it was a good move.

Summary of 2019

HELLO!

Happy New Year!, gif.

Blog exists more than 4 years and I've decided to create a post with a summary of 2019. Well, I've never thought of this as a necessary act. My decision was dictated by few things which are worth comments.

• This year I published 21 posts and - so far, this is the biggest amount of posts published during one year! 
• I made a lot of adjustments in order to improve blog's functioning. I mean, for example, adding an option "Click there to read more" to longer posts, adding a graphic to the headline, correcting tags and various texts, etc.
