A significant part of most of my work in Digital Art so far has been roping my personal passions and interests into my art so as to make it better relate to me as a person whilst also ensuring others can better conceptually understand who I am and what my interests are while engaging in that art. This is a trend I seek to continue even into the final project for this class, and it's one that I hope I can continue to engage in. The entirety of my animation project revolved around this core concept, and I feel that putting my interests front and center and using them as a support for the rest of my work is a good way to get a head start in these projects, because it means a significant portion of brainstorming, planning, and formulating ideas is solved off the bat for me, as I know exactly what I want to draw from and how I want to do it.
Compounding interests with certain projects can just as equally be somewhat problematic, however - the animation project was a simple ideological translation over to a different medium, but project four is inherently leagues more abstract in nature, and involving my own personal interests and ideas with something just like it may prove unusually difficult. All the same, I've sought to alot myself plenty of time to work on the project and to additionally refine the core concepts and ideas behind it, so that I have all the time I need to adjust the final product and the draft ideas behind it.
