To anyone looking for an update from me
12 years ago
Life is not a destination, but a journey...
Recently I've been think about why i haven't been able to draw anything, whether it be lack of drive or motivation or work or other distraction. Yes, I have some semblance of a life, work, college, and numerous hobbies that make me smile and take up my time.
Then a couple of days ago I had when out, had some time to myself and realized why I love art.
My art can't be summoned up by force. I've tried and thought hard about this but it's just the way I work. Sure I might be able to do it now and again, and there are tremendous artist here on FA that commission art frequently and take joy in bringing visual form to others ideas. I respect and greatly admire anyone that does this consistently.
You guys/gals ROCK!
But as of this moment in my life I cant force my art right now... I'm sure with a bit more practice I can learn it, and occasionally I'll take sketch ideas and such, and I have found I do better with art trades than I do with commissions or requests (odd but true).
*********************************************
DONT FRET PEOPLE ON MY ART LIST!
For those whom I "owe" art too you have not been forgotten, I just some "me" art time where I'm not drawing for a reason or purpose. As for anyone waiting on a "paid" commission, i apologize as you will receive a full refund. However, please note me the price paid and the terms that were set.
Thanks in advance

For now I'm going back to something I haven't done since early high school, "draw for me, with a reason". I actually remember something I said way back then when someone asked me "why did I draw all the time".
My answer:
"It's not that I think about drawing all the time.. it's weird like I look at the paper, an idea doesn't come from my head..rather my hands and the page... then as I draw it my mind runs wild, and i come up with what you see."
Yes, it's kind of cheesy, but it's true. Most of my friend who know me rl have ask "hey what you drawing?" and I've honestly answered "i don't know.." I think most artist have that raw "imagination" and some naturally learn to manipulate it to just happen whenever they want it to.
Trying to update more often than these really long ones, but at least with these I have something to say.
