My return
1 min read
My apologies to those who have been waiting for new art and to those who have watched me over the past few years & beyond. (It seems I keep making these "returns") I've been focusing on some personal aspects of life and as a result, this gallery has been neglected. A good friend of mine has been encouraging me to get back online and I realize how important this is to who I am. I'm going to make it a priority moving forward to make it up to those who have been wondering where I've been. With a new year, comes a new beginning. Happy New Year to everyone, it's game-on once more. Stay tuned.

A decade gone by

I just realized I've been on here for 10 years.
Well now I'm going to have to upload to mark the occasion.
It's rather unsettling to think 10 years have gone by in a flash. The people that have come and gone in that time as well as the changes....Not to mention how my style has changed since that time.
I thought about all that today.
Wonder what the next 10 will bring....
Cheers

Woooooow. Where have you been??

I didn't think it had been as long as it's been since my last update. Sheesh.. A year and a half?
My coming back was spurred by a sudden, out of the blue desire to try and locate two female artist friends I hadn't seen or spoken with for years. It's really amazingly sad how easily we drift apart and fall out of contact sometimes. I was saddened to learn both have pulled their artwork and no longer appear to be uploading anywhere. Their reasons are their own and I respect them for it. I can't say I've uploaded anything lately either. I still draw, just..not as much.
We never really stop to think about how a person can enrich our lives until one day they are gone. Sometimes we think more of the art then the artist. When they go, their legacy sometimes goes with them. The names I will always remember. For what it's worth.
My goal is to try and reestablish myself as an artist in the coming months. Perhaps I can post new photos and sketches. Heck, maybe even get this comic idea off the ground that I've been kicking around in my head.
We'll see.
Anyway, just life getting in the way as usual.
Already I miss my artist friends. I never realized how much until now. Let that be a good life lesson. You don't know what you've got till you loose it.
If I had these friendships all over again, I would have done things much differently.
Guess that's all I have right now. Have to finish packing up my desk and completing my work.
Keep a steady course. Be well.

Well,
Some time has passed since my last entry.
I haven't done a whole lot worth mentioning lately.
Got back from MFF. That was a fun time as always.
Had a good Turkey day. And am enjoying the nice long weekend.
Gonna try and post some new junk when I can.
I hate my lazyness

Back to the routine.
Same as usual. AC was an absolute blast.
Got to meet all the folks I was hoping to I think. Scored some art prints from my two biggest furry inspirations (Michelle Light and Terrie Smith). I also managed to do some sketchy-type drawings during the con, although others have called them outright drawings (I don't really care actually).
Got the holiday weekend coming up. 4th of July already. Damn you summer. Always flying by.
Anyway,
guess that's all I have right now. Gatta get back to work.
