Still here.
12 years ago
A long-overdue explanation for my continued inactivity.
More of the same, I guess - before the summer I'd posted up saying that I'm shelving commission arts for the time being because of fulltime work and its demands on my time and energy.
And so it's continued, though I've been lucky enough to get a solid gig in my field.
It's also taken me away from home for a good bit of the season, and although I'm on a stable schedule now, there's still not much opportunity for me to sit down and art. I've been taking distance classes in my evenings in order to upgrade skills/buff resume/look good to people who might hire me within the organization once my work term is up.
All that being on my plate, come the end of the day all I want to do is load up battlephin 4 and get some shooty pewpew funtimes in before I have to crash for the night. I'm also looking at the possibility of returning to school to get a master's degree, because we live in a highly competitive world, and it may be what I need to do to get a proper, long-lasting job.
Commissions remain closed for the moment - that last piece I put up took me since about september to finish. I'll keep doodling as time and will permit. I have to shout a hearty thank-you to everyone who's been around to help me through the more stressful bits - you all know who you are. I've still got a few drawings in me yet, and I promise everyone that there's more to come from this crazy cetacean. I also have that story project I'd like to finish sometime, and to add partial illustrations to as well. One bit at a time.
P'zout.
