Ok, first I'd like to say to all the people visiting my page recently; Thank you! Granted, it's not like I have a ton of page hits, but I currently have more than I ever expected. I'm hoping that means I'm improving.

Secondly, I finally got a new pc again. Back in July. Yeah I know. Aside from the few pieces I've posted since I started eight that I haven't finished. Due to a declining situation where I've been living I developed creative block that the few non-drama inducing friends in town I have weren't able to fix. As such I will be moving to Pittsburgh next week. On top of that, helping a friend with a project seems to have unblocked myself and I think I've finished on the best photomanipulations I've ever done. The idea now is to get moved while at the same time finishing the unfinished projects and starting new ones. Of which includes a painting I've been trying to finish since last spring. I still don't have the hang of that and I'm thinking of sticking to illustration. On that note I will be uploading several new pieces of ink work that I've been hesitant to post in the hopes that maybe I can draw some postitive critiquing.

So for those of you who visit my page I again thank you and will be trying to reestablish a contact. Hope you all enjoy.

So it's been a while since i've been here. The screen on my laptop died and the monitor it's hooked up to currently isn't very helpful so I haven't had much ability to do anything or upload onto the computer. I have used the time to work on some more traditional peices though and I'll be uploading them soon as I get a chance.

i tried oil painting for the first time. Unsure how I feel about that or the painting.

I should be replacing my pc this weekend so I can go back to working on more digital pieces and touching up my traditional stuff. Ironically, I doubt my absence has been noticed much judging from the page hits. I'm planning to reorganise my gallery and put what I think are my better pieces more obvious, but I'm not too sure which those are. Any other ideas concerning increasing exposure (so I can get some feedback on how to improve my art) would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks, later.

So yeah... The death of a relationship, working two jobs seven days a week, insomnia, and a butt-load of bills (in relation to the beginning of this sentence) have left me with a serious case of creative block. I've also not been returning messages like I should either and I'd like to make amends for that. Besides, those are excuses that I could have worked through and keep going.

For anyone that's watched me or faved one of my pics recently thank you very very much! It's sad, but I'm proud I'm about to hit 1,000 page views considering I've had no formal training in my art. (Granted it's taken me a few years to do this )

Thanks to a friend's pestering... I mean support, I managed to unblock myself and I'm getting back into the swing of things. Tomorrow I'll be uploading both some new stuff and some redone older work. The piece that helped move my creative block was a dark/zombie portrait that I think I want to add to later. Because the model hasn't seen the full pic yet I'm only posting a teaser until later tonight.

Thanks again for bearing with me!

Okay, yeah so just a little embarassed. Do to my insane work schedule I have to delay my upload until maybe this weekend.

I work two legit job and do a third on the side. Looking for a new apt (to escape the roommates I was forced upon after losing my apt.) so it'll be a few days. In that time I'm hoping to finish the three WIP I've got. I'm liking the directing these are taking and I hope the community here does too.

Time will tell.

Yes not only am I finally updating my journal, not that it's that big a deal, but I'm going to be uploading a lot of new work. I've still been trying to find my way with my art which has gone through a lot of changes stylistically lately. It's also been affected by the chaos in my life over the past year.

I've started painting (still don't like anything,) lost my home, and was seriously hurt by someone that should have respected me more. Meh. For those that read my journal, as stated above, I will be updating and the hope is that my new work is of a better quality. And thanks to those that visit my page.

W00t!1!!1 607 page views after 2 years on DA! I ROCK! <- sarcasm
