2023 Icon Progression Post

This year, I decided to keep it a little more visual, mostly because there weren't as many posts. Also, if I did my usual posts, I wouldn't finish this post until the year's almost over, lol! Click on the image to access the respective post.

Overall, I think there's been a shift in my technique and style. I've definitely tried to branch more and try different things. I've played with complex icons and text more than I used. I'm still not 100% confident in my text usage though. I don't know if I'll be making a lot of icons in 2024 just because my job and being on the late shift, but, if I do get a chance, I want to definitely want to continue branching out in my technique and style.

Oh wow, this layout is SO amazing! Such a great way to frame a year-end retrospective! I have to say, love your use of bold, bright colours and pop art-like composition! That blonde IU icon is one of my favourites of yours! Great job and here's to more beautiful icons from you! <3
