I guess, like many other artists, I've put myself in a rut. In the past two or three years the outflow of my artwork has decreased greatly, and regettably so. During those three years I gave up on a lot things that made me happy. I had to give up on a lot of my hobbies to make room for senior project, graduation, college, and other things...
Most of all, I've hurt myself in the process. I focused too much on those other things like trying to live up to other peoples expectations. Art seemed more like a chore at the time rather than a safe haven I could retreat to, and just be me.
I hate logining in to my account only to find a few, if any, messages regarding my artwork. Which is all my fault. I know I need to put more time and effort into finishing and submitting my artwork. Although I keep repeating myself...I PROMISE to post more soon. I'm working really hard on the editing of my two newest pieces...
Also, if you haven't already...please let me know what you think of my Kitten's Be Smitten hats. I plan to set up shop at the Burlington Apple Harvest this year.Hopefully, I my shop will be noticed and I can get more people interested in my hats. I'm going to start making hats in bulk so...yeah any comments would be nice....
are they kool? do they absolutely suck? just anything....
Thanks,

I know I haven't been on dA that much because of work. Yesterday my father showed me the divorce papers my mother had served to him by the sheriff. I don't foresee me being on dA much more in the future.
Good news
I thought it would take forever to finish school. It is hard for me to grasp that graduation is right around the corner. I landed a job in PA and they want me to start the day after graduation!
I need to get back into art again so I'm going to try to devote my free time to my work and cosplays. (There's what? --6 in progress now, haha...)
If you have any ideas you would like me to draw please feel free to drop them by here.
Thanks! ^_^
Here to stay
There's a breaking point in us all. Time is just too short for me to be worried about people who just want to bring me down. I'm done apologizing for being me. I'm surrounding myself with people that lift me up and recognize the good I do. I've got a nice little family up here in PA. They support me and I know they've got my back when I need it.
This is goodbye. I've successfully severed the ties. But I am here to stay on deviantart. It's been a part of my life for 7 years.
I find it humorous that my account is being monitored. Lol, where do you get off? I could think of better things to do in my spare time. You pathetic little cur ^_^
This is probably goodbye
I'm looking to delete my deviantart account. There's too many memories here that I just rather forget. I figure if I delete my account I have no reason to go back to them.
I thought that moving away and going to school was going to put a positive impact on my life but it was the complete opposite.
I had a lot of things on my plate, a lot of distractions. Turns out I'm a shitty excuse for a friend because all I ever did was ignore and treat my friends like shit and thus ended up in the downfall of all my past friendships.
I'm trying not to turn into the self-destructive person I used to be but it has already started. It's probably best for

Hiya...
I know exactly how you feel, actually. I had to give up a lot because of some problems, too, and as much as I like to claim otherwise, it effected my greatly. More and more, my time was filled with doing things I know I'm not very good at, but I tried hard in order to prove myself I can. And when I didn't, I felt like I was running from responsibilities. It sorta scared me sometimes, because I didn't know what was right and what was wrong. Although, I admit, for me it was only for a brief period of time, and you had to endure similar pressure for three years.
There is no cure, actually. I guess that's how life goes. It's all about sacrifices, that, unfortunately, sometimes end up not helping us to gain what we desired in the fist place. But thrust me, no sacrifice is completely useless.
I like to look on the matter from the brighter side. The problems I've been facing have, in a sense, made me stronger, or at least more mature.
As for your art, I stand behind what I said before. I really consider you a great artist as well as a person. Even if we haven't interacted much, Blackie told me a lot of admirable things about you.
I too have to apologize for not being able to take a better look at your gallery, due to being always too busy.
Anyway, to cut it short, u r amazing~!
