a dark day
General | Posted a month agoFirst off I want to apologize for not uploading anything recently life has turned upside down inside out backed over the chiropractor and then set him on fire... I have been having some difficult times and I would like to share a little bit first and foremost my work life is overtaken everything and has made life very difficult to balance between what I need to do what I want to do and what I have to do... That's life...
But Today I need to talk about something... important, it is a dark day.
something tragic, for a very long time now I have been taking care of my parents both could barely walk health failing them to some extent... My mom is a tough old bird, however my dad is Health began to fail him, he always had back problems he would always be stubborn about it of course... he need always complain about the little things or what's going on in the news or politics it was his favorite subject, it was like a sport for him...
in recent months he even attempted to force me to remove all my art from the internet for fear of political backlash. personally I don't care about politics and I really don't care what he said. I have this art page because I love art, I love to draw, it makes me happy, it's my zen... And I wasn't going to let my father or anyone else say otherwise... Me and my father would get into disagreements a lot but there were some good times too... Not many but there were I guess...
on the 24th of October my dad passed away, it was quick, it happened in front of me and my daughters, it took us all by surprise. we tried for a long time to revive him using CPR and when the medical Teams came to help and to try resuscitate him and failed... I guess it seems it was to be his time. My dad always had a knack for doing things his way, I guess this was his last great fuck you life... and he died peacefully at home in his favorite chair demanding coffee... I always had a disagreements with my dad on and off, he was always a hard ass, that comes from a military career I guess. I only found out 2 months ago that my dad was a sergeant, I had no idea! I always knew he served but he never talked about it... He was always difficult to talk with or talk to because usually and most of the time if I ask my dad one simple question he would give me a long winded speech and then it usually turned into talking about politics, or a religious sermon, my father was very religious... I just hope he found his peace.
As for me, I have been spending a lot of my time lately focusing on finding all of my dad's paperwork and responsibilities and trying to figure it all out. me and my family are still in shock over the affair.
But what is most unnerving is the house is definitely quieter, my dad would always listen to the news at ear piercing volume, but it's almost an unsettling quiet now... like something's missing... my father...
now Let's talk a little bit about my art... I'm going to try and start posting again here pretty quick if I can. I have lots of projects I want to work on or finish and I'm definitely working on my art style. In recent months I have been trying to improve and learn from art books and artists on ways to improve my style every chance I get. sometimes drawing is the only thing that helps keep me going... It just drives me nuts knowing that I am just now getting a chance to post stuff that's from back in 2016 when some of the stuff I've been working on and practicing is becoming I guess what you would call next level which is something I've been trying to work towards for a very long time and I hope at one point I can share it with everyone but for now all I ask is for a soft solemn prayer for me and my family on this dark day.

anybody out there...
General | Posted 2 months agobaby steps .... that's what it takes, I've been working hard on a whole lot of small projects. mostly it's just life taking over but I'm hoping that some of you out there have been enjoying my work both here and on YouTube. I've been trying to practice and upgrade my art style for the past 2 years and I feel like I'm starting to get even better...
I will plan to continue posting my work here for everybody to see and enjoy. all that I ask is that you talk to me about the art. tell me what you like, give me some tips and ideas, a good honest critique. that way I can always try to improve and grow. if you are lurking but do like my art and watch it from time to time shout out, say hello I am rather friendly, I don't bite...
its just my art sites have been very quiet lately and I'm wondering if anyone's even watching or paying attention these days...
Now I do have a cupel of questions and if you have information please share with me. I am looking to start going to conventions to sell my art, either in artist alley or in the Dealer's Den. I would like to know if any of you have any tips or tricks or ideas. money saving suggestions, maybe even some cons you've been to that you think might work for me. I live on the west coast in the USA so any suggestions would help...
I am also looking to see if I can get my hands on a company online or not that could help me print out some coloring books, since I do lots of line art work I've been wanting to Launch a coloring book series. if you have any leads please let me know.
In any case have a great day be safe out there... And don't forget to check my page often I do try to update it frequently... Both here and on YouTube and any other sites I have...

life finds a way, I know I have not posted in nearly a year at this point but i have been making repairs to some of my websites and artwork. if any of you watch my YouTube channels then you know I am keeping busy. i've been working very hard on a lot of work and a lot of projects every week, I am posting something new or recording something, i've had some trying times this past year good and bad... But I'm pleased to announce that I am going to start posting more, and more often, and I do apologize for not doing so for a while now. occasionally I have gotten a private message stating that this channel is dead... lol... I am quite alive so don't worry. however I have lots of things that are coming up that I need to share and post. if you guys want to see what I've been up to on and off I would recommend checking out my YouTube channels... life finds a way...
I looked at my last post today and realized it was December 1st of last year with the one year anniversary coming up of that particular posting I realize I need to show some serious love for my art sites so I'm going to make damn sure I start posting all of these gems I've been hoarding for a long time now...

not expected but welcome
General | Posted 3 years agowas not expecting this. WisahK gave me a fanart of one of my Works it is exceptionally rare and few and far between...
I did enjoy making this piece back in 2022 it was a lot of fun...
I enjoy seeing the brush work they put in to trying to create a more fluffy version of it...
again I am exceptionally surprised...
One of the thing I'm exceptionally proud of is that they credited the artist which is something I've seen time and time again where art has been stolen and claimed to be their own when it turns out it's someone else's entirely.... WisahK I'm proud of you thank you for letting me know what you are up to...
hmm... it has been almost 15 years since I have got a proper fan art... I think it's been 15 years... maybe 10... or whatever... the point of the matter is I appreciate this. thank you WisahK...
at least you got some comment on this rendition I never get comments... well until you started checking out my channel that is... hugs.

the virus attack's....
General | Posted 3 years agoWell guys it's official after 3 plus years of managing to avoid it, being extra cautious, calculated careful, and understandably sanitary, ... I got covid... and not for my efforts staying safe but from the school system telling all the students they didn't have to wear masks anymore... and the best part is it's a double whammy, both my girls came home with flu and covid... and within two days of them getting hit hard by it I got it to. that's life it loves to kick you when you're down... I'm sick as hell the kids are high-spirited but feeling a little under the weather as well. it doesn't help matters that I'm also high risk and the fact that my favorite time of the year is pretty much screwed... sigh... the only thing I can do is rest... recover and feel better. got to try moving forward, wish me and my little family luck...
it begins... fun gaming... and more...

General | Posted 3 years agoOkay all I was so excited to try this that I didn't get a chance to post the goings-on yesterday so let me Enlighten you all... as to what's going on I have dusted off my digital pen... and I'm re-familiarizing myself with digital art forms... I used the program corel Painter... And I haven't picked up my digital pencil since my divorce almost 10 years now... think of it as the granddaddy art program and it has so much in the way of paint brushes it'll make you fall in love and die a happy man or woman... yesterday I drove right into trying the 2023 Edition... of it and re-familiarized myself with it... And I have to say it came out with an interesting piece...

General | Posted 3 years agowell all its finally happening... and I'm excited to enjoy it... to experience it... to be truly part of the Furry fandom... in a small but significant way... I AM GOING TO A.W.U. .... this will be my first Big experience actually getting to attend a Furry Convention... This event I have been planning to do for 22 years... I just never got the chance to go... mostly work related... for Life took me by balls and drag me around the courtyard... by most standards I know this one is small... Located in Layton Utah... The convention will be running the entire weekend starting Friday through Sunday night... I have high hopes for this convention because my attempts to go to B.L.F.C. last year failed, because they changed the dates at the very last minute... and I practically didn't find out until I got to Reno... Still made the most of that trip exploring the sights and even checking out Lake Tahoe... But this time it's official. I look forward to seeing the sights the sounds... And all you fluff butts there... Be safe and don't forget to say hello...
I will inform you of how it went when I return... Until then have a great weekend everybody...
