Your eyes can be so cruel...
Greetings everyone.
I am now 50 watchers strong here, and i have to say, that is amazing. I never would have imagined when i first really started using this site that i would really make it anywhere, let alone amount to 50 watchers. It honestly does mean the world to me that you all like my art enough that you want to see more of it.
Every watch I get really gives me the motivation to keep on going and make more fun drawings for everyone to enjoy. It also really touches my heart that some people follow me without even really knowing much about me. Or at least I assume that. Lol. I think ive seen a few people that ive simply sent a note and then they immediately watch me. That is just so awesome. :)
I am almost at 3k views as well. That is pretty damn sweet. Even just each of those views gives me a nice boost in morale. They may not all want to watch me, but they thought I was interesting enough that my profile deserved a closer view.
Right then, 50 watches also means that my music player of choice has been “unlocked.”
My preferred method of audio indulgence is an ipad running ios 8.4, and secondly an ipod running ios 8.5.1. I am notorious for NEVER updating my idevices. The only one I consistently ever update was my first ipod touch, but that was because back then, nothing major changed when updates rolled out. Or at least nothing with the music app.
Now however, too many things get switched around with the new updates, including the music app. I LOVE the way 8.4 handles music on an ipad. It’s what ive always wanted back when I had that first itouch. I can listen to one song, while browsing to another album, and then having that album up on deck to just select the song once the one im currently listening to ends. Just small tidbits like that which really help me listen to music my personal way is what I love about 8.4, and why I will never update that ipad. The ipod is not as good, but it’s a smaller form factor to take with me to work, so I use that most of the time.
Finally, ive come quite far since I first really started using this place. Ive made so many new friends, gotten a ton of requests, and its really been a lot of fun for me. I have gone from traditional art to digital art, and that is quite the transition. The ease of which I can erase my mistakes digitally has led me to the decision of getting a tablet for drawing on my PC. I believe ive come as far as I can using my surface 3 to draw. So now I will be purchasing the tablet to use with a better paint program as well.
I’m not sure when ill get it, or when ill start making art on it for this account. One thing is for certain though. Once I do get it, ill be able to stream it. This tablet couldn’t stream a sack of potatoes, but my laptop can stream at 1080p without breaking a sweat. The only reason I stream in 720 instead is because 98% of people cant handle simply watching 1080. Be it their internet or device itself is lacking the ability to do so.
So that’s it for this journal I guess. If anyone ever wants to chat, feel free to add me on skype. Seems like a lot of people mainly use that for chatting. If you REALLY want to chat with me often, please send me a note so I can give you my main skype account. The account I have on my profile info I used only when im home. My main one is reserved for very close friends and people I believe really do want to chat with me more often as I take that account with me everywhere on my phone. Be it work, or when im just out and about.
A huge thank you goes out to all those that have wished to become my friends, and i hope to make many more in the future. :)
Thank you for reading everyone. :)
Have a good morning/afternoon/evening/night.
