Midnight Rambles

Sat Sep 12, 2009, 8:25 PM
Anyone who knows me personally knows that I'm a social network hermit. Facebook, livejournal, twitter, etc: I avoid them all. Which inevitably leads me to disappear for long periods only to need to explain myself later in the unlikely event someone was missing my work ^_^

Anyway, for the past two months, I haven't had the time to put pencil and paper together, let alone prep something for posting. The following are the reasons: Had to plan a wedding, got married, disappeared for a honeymoon, had to arrange documents to buy a house, bought a house, currently in the process of moving into a house, trying to get a steady job working in the schools, and keeping up with the changing requirements of my current job. Heck, I made a rather neat cake for my birthday in July and I haven't been able to prep the pics to post it (grrr...).

I don't look for sympathy; heck, I'm lucky to have a job. But not being able to spend time doing something that gives you joy can wear away at you. I have such a glut of ideas, comics, characters, and art experiments that I'd have to make a list just to prevent my pencil from giving up in indecision. I can only hope that with the house set up and my current prospects explored that things will calm down a bit and I can get back to doing what I enjoy most: drawing and maybe the rare occasion when I produce something worth posting for feedback.

I can't be productive on sleepless nights: To tired to brain, not tired enough to sleep. And so I update. Enjoy until next month ^_^

Picture coming as soon as I can draw my own darn face.

Well, what's to say beyond I'm a part-time artist who's never entirely happy with what he produces. But I think I need that to nudge me into getting better ^_^. Feel free to message me for commissions or art trades (I LOVE fan art of my characters and will work my pencil to the nub to get some!)

Like cute, sexy anime girls??

:iconprofcinderwood:
I did hear about that. Maybe I should finally sit down and watch the first three series, huh? :w00t!:
:icontira-chan:
Yes, especially since you can get each season for only 30-40$ now as a boxset. Funimation is alot cheaper than CPM was O.o (at least with the 'older' animes)
