Every few eras: Take 2
1 min read
Apparently the last time I worked with tablets, my computer display was at 125%, so the tablets would freak out. That was an entire experience.
In response to said experience, I've been working on a lot of traditional works, and trying to figure out what to do with my ever growing piles.
But I keep getting pulled back here.
SO! Theydees and Gentlethems, Lets try this again. This time with a little more swoobidoo and jazz hands.

Every few eras or so

It seems like I have returned once again to the world of Deviant art. I have gone off on a pilgrimage to better my art skills and have returned with learned fancies!
I have found the world of bentwood, as well as the world of wire wrapping, and feathers!
I hope all of you are well!

Lino carvings ... suggestions?
1 min read
Hello world!
Just wanted to let you know that I want to go back to work on making lino carvings/stamps!
But the problem is - I don't know what design to use
So I am asking anyone who sees this, to throw anything out there!
Just let me know what you want to see and I will do my best to deliver.
Nothing crude or vulgar please :I
Thank you for all your input!

IT HAS BEEN PLANNED. YESS!

So I will soon be getting one of those fancy wacom tablets! So much is to be planned and wondered by! I've been trying and trying for years and years to get stuff on DA, but it seems that it is for naught.
Years ago, when I created this DA, I was on the path to become a fantastical animator, I worked for nearly 4 years to be a good artist/animator. Finally peer pressure got to me and I decided I wasn't good enough. Four years of work, down the drain. I was fumed with the teachers, the lack of money, the lack of PASSION I once felt. It was a combination of angry parental looks, and teachers telling me my way of art-wasn't art, and peers constantly telling me I just wasn't good enough to become an artist...well anything. So I just dropped everything and started over doing something else.
It took me two years to pick up a sketchbook again. At that point I was so useless with the pencil to paper technique that I went through ANOTHER two years just to get back up to speed, back to the artist I ONCE was. Even now my hand eye coordination is not what it once was. It's all focused on defending my life while fencing, not on the small details of a character's face or the grace of a shadow creeping along the background of a picture.
But now I have finally decided, I do NOT want to lose this, this is something that I AM passionate about, whether anyone likes it or not. They can go shove it.
To everyone out there who might have ever had a problem with bullies, or peers, or just inner doubts:
Stay Strong.
Don't do it for me or anyone close to you, do it for yourself. This is something personal from your heart to the paper, or computer or whatever medium you use. This is YOUR ART.
People can come and go, they can take their words with them, and use them like knives across your precious heart, scribble crude words onto your physical art, but when it comes down to it, YOU will always be there.
Your art needs you as much as you need it. But you have to stay strong and keep going for yourself, only then can your art stay as strong and wonderful as you are.
