I've gotten a message or two asking about my general absence. First of all, it's really touching that anyone cares about my work enough to recognize when nothing's happening, thank you for that! But I'm not dead, and I'm still checking in here almost daily, mostly to maintain groups. Here's what's going on artwise:
After I made the Luna portrait, I became fairly dissatisfied with the rest of my works. I Nothing I've drawn digitally since then have even come close, and I don't feel them worthy to be posted publicly. I think the reason behind this is that I don't draw often enough, so anything I learn generally fades before I can reuse it.
My solution to this was to try my hand at traditional media (pencil and paper.) I bought a sketchbook, some pencils, and now I carry them around with me wherever I go, so when inspiration hits I can start drawing immediately instead of having to wait to get in front of my PC.
Ultimately, my goal is to improve to a point where I can build a small portfolio. As I will be attending a few cons in the next year or two, it'd be really nice to be able to share sketches or prints, and maybe make some grocery money at the same time. I won't be trying to sell things until "My Luna pic is my worst pic," as I have told myself a few times.
So! I'm on a small personal hiatus, with the goal to improve my work even more. I may post a few of my sketches at a later date, but I haven't decided on that yet.
Out,
DJRD
