Custom brush on Ibis Paint

This is basically as personal as an art piece can be. This is my fursona Kino, a character who's around 5 years old and goes back to middleschool, observing clothes on a rack. These are all my iconic outfits from throughtout my life. The blue & white dress was the first piece of clothing I ever got super attached to, and wore it ages 6 to 9, way longer than it was intended to be worn. Next is my green hoodie, what I wore all of 4th-5th grade. It was iconic among my classmates, and it was when I started identifying myself as more masculine than feminine.

The purple hoodie & shorts are my middleschool fit, when I was giving into my dysphoria more than any other time. It lasted a long time, and was how I drew myself most of middleschool. The next outfit, a dark coloured outfit, was short lived by from a very bad part of my life. The shirt is a goosebumps shirt I wore obsessively in 2020 when my life kinda went downhill (surprisingly for reasons unrelated to covid). My best friend of 5 years moved away and I lived in a hoarding house with 26 cats. Lastly, is my iconic outfit from one of the more recent chapters of my life, 2021. My parents got divorced, I lived with my dad and siblings in shitty small apartments for nearly 2 years and was depressed the entire time. We recently moved and I'm doing the best I've ever been.

I made this piece when taking a break from the internet and making a lot of vent art. Clearly, I felt like shit and hopeless for the future.
