I finally relocated to my new home in the Phoenix Metropolitan Area last week. I'll spare you the details of the trip, but I did maintain a miniature "trip diary" of sorts on my Twitter account, detailing where I went and the number of days that passed by, for those who are actually interested. I also plan to eventually upload various photos from the trip that I took with my phone onto my dusty old Tumblr account that I haven't touched in Lord knows how long (I really need to spruce that place up... my account here could also use such sprucing up, as well). As for myself, I'm still trying to learn the ins and outs of my town (and getting used to the already ungodly heat... summer's not gonna be fun). My furniture finally arrived yesterday, and while I'm still working on unpacking everything (I'll also need to look for a new desk), I have managed to set up a temporary work station of sorts. That said, I technically could open up commissions right now, but I would like to get in a little practice before I really commit to it; it's been quite some time since I last drew something and my skills are undoubtedly rusty.
However, if any of you feel like you can't wait for me to refine my practice and want to commission me now... I think we can work something out, but I can't promise the results will be satisfactory (I will try my best, of course). If I fail to get any takers, I'll probably try my hand at that whole webcomic business... been wanting to make one for some time, and I think I've learned enough about the craft via the Internet to give it a go. Time will tell.
So, here's to my new life in AZ! Let's hope I don't screw it up!

Although I still upload artwork here, this account has become rather dead, hasn't it? I mean, unless you go through my Scrap gallery, whomever is reading this might think I haven't done anything with this account in years and that I've long moved on! The fact is... yeah, I've pretty much moved on and I'm indeed done here. I've been done with this site ever since the Eclipse UI update so many years ago; even now, I think it's absolutely abhorrent and the most user-unfriendly interface I've ever had the displeasure of navigating, with everything feeling like it requires more clicks to do here than it would on any other site. I kept hoping it would improve over time and I could be won back, but... it's clearly not gonna happen any time soon, and I've just about called it quits on this site. However, I do still see the value in keeping an account here and I'm not about to remove all of my old work, as poorly-aged as most of it is. Besides, there's always the possibility that I may come
Trash Drawings.
In recent weeks, I've begun making rough sketches at work when things are quiet. The drawings themselves are very rough; they're often hastily-made with whatever supplies I can find lying around my work place (usually spare pens and cardboard scraps). I've taken to calling them "trash drawings" due to their semi-rushed nature and how they're all drawn on literal pieces of garbage. I've been posting them on my Twitter account, but for anyone who still reads these entries, I want to ask...
Should I post them here? Keep in mind that these things are very rough; because of their hastily-drawn nature, they're going to be rife with anatomy flaws a
A statement regarding blocking.
This journal entry is sort of a pseudo-response to something that found its way into my DA inbox recently. I know I don't post journal entries here very often, but this particular thing I came across has... motivated me to say something.
But I just want everyone reading to know that regardless of your political affiliations, I will never, under any circumstances, block you because of said affiliations. Whether you're liberal, conservative, centrist, or even one of those extremist morons (nazi scum, commie retards, antifa hypocrites, etc.), know that even if I don't agree or even outright abhor your beliefs, I will not consider that reason en
First entry of 2017.
And so 2017 has finally rolled in. I hope you all enjoyed the holidays?
This journal is mostly to remind anyone who still cares that I'm still trying to get back into drawing. You may have noticed I posted something new back in December? My goal this year is to keep at that and to try drawing every day or almost every day, regardless of how little (if anything) I get done and regardless of whether or not I even have any ideas. The best way to get back into it is to force yourself into it, I've learned, and forcing myself back into has gotten easier over time. But I've got to keep at it. I'm hoping I'll be able to deliver at least one colored

You'll find summer will be hot, but not necessarily miserable. Humid summers are the worst, and AZ is a desert!
