Don't know if anyone still watches me, seeing as I haven't posted in FOREVER. Gonna post some new stuff soon... sorry for all the lateness and all. This is sort of whiny I know, but um... does anyone else ever get a crisis of art? I mean, lemme explain my history, and then you'll see what I mean.

I didn't draw when I was three...or ten...or fifteen. I started sort of crappy drawing when I was seventeen. That's three years ago. So, I kinda suck. Anyway, I DON'T REALLY WANT TO DO IT!!! I'm not kidding. I was going to be a Veterinarian. Then all of a sudden I couldn't STOP drawing. I still can't. So I find myself stuck: I can't be happy unless I major in art (Tried denying my major for two years, it didn't work), and I don't think I'm good enough to do anything with it...

You see my problem? All I want to know is this: Does anyone else ever have similar doubts and fears? I'm so tired of seeing all these fantastic 16 year olds who already sell paintings, (and are much better than I'll ever be) who have so much confidence. I wan't the darker side... Does anyone else fear failure like me?

I apologize for the sporadic updates, and regret to say that they will most likely continue. This is not because I am not drawing, no indeed quite the opposite is true. The fact is that I have not been happy with my drawing abilities lately. Mainly, I want to launch a comic and have finally solidified the plot. All that is missing is the actual drawing part. And that leads me to my discontent. I feel like I draw my werewolves well enough, I am improving steadily and the were's I do draw seem fluid and real. Where I am displeased are the humans. I feel like they look stiff and posed, and the expressions lack the honesty that I desire. I don't exactly wish to copy another artists style, but certain artists have a style that I would like to incorporate in my drawing. For this reason, I am taking a small time out to practice drawing human beings. I wish to experiement with expressions as well as varying thicknesses in lines to achieve the flowing artsy effect that I want. For examples of what I am talking about, nyanko-chan, and rans have a style that I rather like. I am attracted to the simplicity of it. In any case I wish to foster a similar style in my own art. THEREFORE, although I will be drawing up a storm I most likely will only post anthro pieces. After I am confident that I have found my own style I will start posting the humans and humanoids again. Cuz lets face it...right now I suck big time. See you guys later.

Well, I am back....
After fixing the scanner I have SOOOOOOOOO much stuff to upload, but I'll try to keep it down so I don't flood the thing. Anyway, I thought the Jacinth piece turned out nicely so I put it up. I will return with more news once I have something interesting to say. I loves you all.

My fingers *aren't* busted!!! Well, sort of. I have one hairline fracture, but that's no biggie.The doctor on Friday said they were, put on some splints, on Sunday i went to a different guy, for an unrelated problem (the kidney infection) and he took a look, and they were just fine. they are still a little sore and bruised, but the swelling is almost entirely gone, and I can use them!! Yay!!!
To answer the question of how they were injured, first, in my Karate class I did something really dumb and blocked a kick from my teacher with an open hand. That's bad cuz you can break your fingers... they hurt, but I knew they were OK. then that night, I jammed them really hard against a door, and that's when i heard a snap, and they swelled really badly. So i went to the doctor the next day, and the x-ray said they were busted, so I got all splinted up. Then on sunday, the other x-ray said it was just a hairline fracture. I can still draw, and type! And do stuff.

Broke two fingers...

Still have kidney infection...

have a headcold...

Talk more later...
