...well honestly, this is embarrassing; I guess I should start out with an explanation.

If anyone's still watching me, I've noticeably been pretty inactive/ gone from this site for roughly a year or so. I'd been meaning to get back on track and upload art, but if one thing wasn't happening, it was another: college work was tough and required nearly all of my time (ESPECIALLY this year... the less I think about my Editorial Design class, the happier I'll be); I would start on something, and then get really hung up about details (mostly with digital art, I'll elaborate on that in a sec.); and most of the time, I was suffering from a creative slump and was being a plain old lazy-ass.

What I've noticed that has become a habit of mine is that I want to greatly improve, but the more I work on something, I get scared and nervous about every little details, more specifically the shading and the thought if I even really am improving or not. I know that if I keep worrying about it instead of just saying screw it all and draw I'm never going to improve, but I don't want to develop an ego and believe any work I crap out - no matter how error-filled it may be - is gold. This may also sound idiotic, but I also worry about the quality of my drawing skills at my age as well; maybe it's just because I haven't posted up anything in a long while, and all my gallery is full of is old stuff.

On that note, I did clean out my gallery, most notably scraping away all of my Anti-Twilight art and deleting my Breaking Dawn MST3K; the reasons being that the whole Twilight craze is notably dying out (seriously, they're just dragging it out by trying to imitate Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows with making Breaking Dawn into two movies), and I'm sorry if this comes across as sounding rude, but I do want to be known for drawings that aren't focused on being all Anti-Twilight. Besides, if you guys really want to see some sporkings of the Twilight Saga/ Mary Sue fanfic/ bad Teen Lit romance in general, I'd recommend Das-Mervin ([link]) and Zelda-Queen ([link]).

So, long story short: I just needed to sort out my life, there are still a few hang-ups I have, but I think once I start making a habit about drawing again, things will perk up so to speak.

Oh, once I start drawing and posting art on a regular basis, I might post some info about commissions; I'm struggling like crazy for a job. (@_@')

And just to close out, I apologize for the complete absence to any and all of my watchers. I hate it when shit happens, but it's necessary to get it all sorted out.
