I'm back! Finally, after a long hiatus, I'm back. It's been a super long time since I put anything new up and I'd like to believe that things have only improved for me artistically. At the very least, I know that I've gone through some minor, and major style changes over the last year or so. Since I began posting on dA, I've faced a lot of brand new inspirations, influences, and artistic challenges that have broadened my horizons on art and continue to at a very rapid rate. I began drawing with others, not necessarily collaborating on pieces, but collaborating on ideas and guidelines. I've learned some bits of old traditions, and new, risi...

Thanks for all the hits on that particular piece all. Just makes me that much happier about the end result. Someday I'll get it up there, all finalized, maybe even as a print. KEEP WATCHIN!

So I really have pulled myself out of a funk. Looking back, I was being pretty ridiculous. Now I'm faced with a couple new decisions, and I think I've made one that will change the face of my future a bit. I'm choosing to turn down a job offer I just got. Could take me places. I'd rather stay here with my art. There's a quote by John Milton, found in Paradise Lost I: "It is better to reign in Hell, than to serve in Heaven." In my case, "It's better to remain a starving artist and be happy, than to get money and risk falling apart at the seams." I'll keep the option of putting myself through hell open though. I've been talking to the Big Ma...
