What a month! December 23

First of all, big greetings to newcomers; this marks another 18 little steps toward my artistic freedom. Love you all, guys!
It was an unexpectedly rich month for happenings.
I tried to arrange a small exhibition at Yerevan's cafe, symbolically named 'Emigrant'. After talking with the managers, I felt "Van Gogh-like". They asked one question: 'Can you put clothes on your pictures?' 😅 The whole idea of cooperating with the cafe is now on hold, but I've thought about the idea of making my pictures with little slices inside so you can 'dress up my art' like paper dolls.
The next significant event, as a force majeure, was my mother's heart attack. I had to drop all my projects and urgently fly to another country to help her with medical matters - doctors, hospitals, all that stuff.
But even under those circumstances, I managed to create some art. Here are my results for the month:
Also, I finally finished my DTIYS challenge. Can you believe it - 187 participants! Choosing the best was tough. The shortlist alone featured over 30 artworks, all of the highest quality. Unimaginable!
More big news: I've been selected to participate in 'ART ON LOOP', a digital art exhibition in New York this March (March 22-24th). Here's the ticket link: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/art-on-loop-new-york-digital-show-tickets-753678581927?aff=oddtdtcreator. It's free for viewers and includes a wine bar, so if any of my patrons can visit the exhibition, please do me a favor and send me some photos! :)
Playing card deck
Unfortunately, the crowdfunding idea won't work out, due to my current location, - none of the major crowdfunding services operate in Armenia. But it's not the end of the world; I'm still working on it using my own resources. No biggie.
Due to family issues, I've made little progress but managed to complete two sketches for the spades cards. I've reimagined the concept of themes, aiming to bring different ages and styles to each suit.
Meta Glasses
They're now with me. I'm still deciding when and where, but I definitely plan a test POV livestream session in January with live drawing.
QA Session
Well, this has been completely untouched, but it's still on my planning board, I'm aiming for January.
Also, there is a huge possibility of becoming the featured artist in a French pinup online magazine, but we'll see what I have to say in the next 'What a month' report :)
---------
That's it for now. Now that we've stepped into the new year, I want to extend my heartfelt wishes to everyone. Happy New Year! It's been a rollercoaster of a year for me, and I'm hopeful that this year brings all of you joy, success, and endless creativity. Keep shining and stay wonderful!
