First off, Hi!
I hope everyone had a good holiday season and an awesome new year.
I'm also sorry I haven't been around much in the past month. I've been thinking about things quite a bit lately. A lot about what I want
to do with myself as I get older. That one question. That, what am I going to do with my life? Dreadful question that everyone fears at some point.
I still don't have an answer for it. (Which is a bit depressing to be honest. :c ) I do have a decent job. It pays well.
The benefits are nice, however, each and every day I have to go to it, I slowly like it even less and less. It's gotten to the point here I
don't even like it anymore. Well.. To be honest, I don't think I ever really did like it.
Anyway.. I think I want my artwork to have to do with something I do in the future. In face, I think something like a conceptual
designer is something, or at least pretty close to what I'd like to do with myself. I know it's a long hard road, being an artist, of
any type, for a living, but it just seems like a better way to go than where I'm going now. I dunno.
I really dunno. I'm just working things through my head, trying to brain. So far the only thing I've done, stepping closer to that
goal, is getting my Cintiq. Which, to be honest, I think that's a pretty big step, considering all the capabilities..
I guess I gotta start taking things a little more seriously if I'd ever like to accomplish my goal. So, as of now, I'm gonna
temporarily close free commissions down and start practicing drawing more and more. Trying new thing and techniques. Gonna try
to start the daily sketches back up again. Maybe trying to animate or just trying to learn new programs or something. I might even
open up for not-free commissions at some point, but I still dunno. Either way, I'm gonna try to be more active around here.
Either way, enough rabbling. I hope everyone had an enjoyable time over the holidays. <3
Oh! Also, I've been wanting to do this for quite a while, but I'm still not really sure if I should go through with it or just not even
bother with it. Uhh.. ever since I switched accounts I've been trying to get away from that other name, only because someone
seemly more popular than me has used it before. Anyway, I've been switching accounts for pretty much everything and the only
thing that seems to be left is my Skype account (and I guess MSN and Steam too. But I'm not gonna worry about those though. I
barely use them anyway.) The only thing keeping me from moving away from it is that I'd pretty much loose all the saved logs and
conversations I have there, and I was wondering what anyone else thought about it. Was also wandering that, if I did do that, who
would be interested in adding me there anyway..
I think that's about it. Gonna let my brain take a break for a little while. Thanks for reading, and sorry for the wall of text. D:
Luf you guys<3

Love to see more of your work, for good or ill, from sketches to near finished masterpieces and every bit in between.
I'll do what I can to encourage you as you work towards your goals, Ami. <3
Huh. Small would I guess.. I hope he treated you nicer then he did me. .-.
Well, I guess that makes two now. :p
Thank you, though. Your support really means a lot. <3
Even though I was good at what I did and enjoyed it, circumstances beyond my control saw me change careers suddenly. I picked up something new, again was quite good at it, and again found my way out that door.
Today I'm working a menial job for a fraction of the wage I once commanded. I'm much happier though- my bosses and co-workers are good people and the work is honest. My point is, not everyone will find their life's fulfillment in their vocation. Sometimes it's more a means to that end. While I do wish you all the luck in finding work that you enjoy and find mentally challenging and spiritually fulfilling, I caution you to not weigh your value or image of self on (solely) on the way you make your living. There's a lot more to life than the time spent on the punch clock, and from what I know, you've been excelling in those areas. A good friend who can appreciate the smell of the roses along the path ventured. You're already a grand success- anything else you accomplish is only icing on the cake. :>
he seems to be the only one that doesn't think I could ever do something like this. In fact he acts like he knows I cant.
It's very off-putting to hear someone physically tell you that "You cant do that" when you know that you can.
..Anyway... Thanks for supporting. It really does mean a lot to me. <3
You can't please everybody and some people are simply impossible to please. Sometimes it's best to give up on pleasing them before you give up on yourself.
Also, anything I say about your art isn't just lip service. Firstly, falcons don't have lips. Secondly, I've never believed such does anyone much good. I'd offer more constructive criticism but am not an artist and have nothing of technical merit to contribute. Your stuff always amazes me, squirrel. You're also someone I'm glad to know and be able to call a friend. :>
