Hello FA people's!!

My official artist's handle is now "MilkScrew", I just thought I'd put that out there first. If you are going to address me on here, please use that name. I haven't been around for quite a long time for numerous reasons, the main one as of late has been my mom's extended stay in the hospital. Update on that is that she has been moved to a semi-rehab facility to get weened off the ventilator and will maybe go to a full-on rehabilitation center later on. She has a very bad case of post-coma dementia, which is delirium caused by the sleeping drug propofol which was used to keep her in the induced coma. It is supposed to wear-off but it is still very bad; at this facility they are going to give her "cognitive rehab" that is basically meant to bring her memory back. At this facility as well, dogs are allowed to be brought in to help with the rehab process! So my dog that has been missing her so much will get to see her soon!

Anyway, in my limited free-time I have been working and changing my art style and methods. I've started using a traditional sketchbook again for the first time in about 5-7 years. I stopped because I began to get very annoyed with traditional paper and pencil as compared to the digital tablet and stylus. Everything seemed so much messier, I really didn't want to deal with it. But, I have now come to realize that the more I practice, even when not with my tablet, the better I will get at art. So, I must suck-it-up and draw all I can no matter what I'm using. Which I'm actually enjoying doing so far! YAY!!
