Hey, everyone:

I finally mustered it out of me - a fully revamped website. Changes may occur over time, but I was tired of not having a website and it was about time I finished the new spread.

Let me know if you find a glitch. I'd appreciate it greatly!

Some minor and major updates:

1) I'm a printmaking major, in case you didn't know.
2) I've been making lots of art and learning new things to apply to my art and I have posted selections of everything I've been up to on my new website.
3) I got hit by the train of bad luck recently, but it's okay because my nose isn't broken and I really don't want a crooked nose.
4) I got another cat. He's big and soft and highly intellectual and capable of opening drawers and sometimes even doors. His name is Charlemagne and he's a fabulously handsome thing.
5) I love crustaceans like mad.
6) I almost got hit by a school bus on Friday.
7) My art got accepted into an art show: [link]

Obviously I have been highly inactive on deviantART...hopefully I am still loved. By someone. Please, someone. I really do still care!

I've been trying to keep up with comments but it's hard to maintain regular uploads, especially when the work I'm making goes up to the ceiling and is hard to photograph with a fancy tripod setup. But I borrowed a fancy tripod setup and did it, so all my new art is on my website and I intend to post some of the works here, some time when I'm not sleepy preferrably.

Anyway, hope you've been well, and happy year of the ox!

Another school year has passed. Perspectives change; tender minds cook and swell, cool and solidify. The toothpicks come out clean by the end and no damage occurs to the sweetness that imminently will fluff up around our tongues.

Majors change. I said goodbye to the Engineering school and complimented the admission officer's pretty, dyed Easter egg as I left the door. And I declared a major in Printmaking. I will post the prints I have done online soon.

I uploaded four works from the school year, two a series done first semester and two from the spring semester just ended. There are dozens more new pieces posted on my website: [link] I uploaded most of the work I did this school year to the site, at least what I thought was worth sharing.

The fall was madness, but I enjoyed the work and range of projects, from soap to cardboard to Flash animation (see my site for this one) to an entire online world (currently down, but I am presently restoring it).

The spring was more madness. I stopped counting after nine all-nighters halfway through the spring. It was rough, but worth it. And I exceeded my decision-making quota when I declared my major.

And summer. Oh, summer. I have an internship at a gallery and another in my professor's studio and continue to work at the university's museum. The days are long and I'm tired rather early in the evening, but I cook yummy things with cheap groceries so I am content. And my apartment is clean, which is always a plus.

I also have hundreds of notifications (messages, deviations, etc.) so excuse me if I don't comment on all the work I've missed out on. Hassle me a bit and I'll try to have more of a presence now that it's summer and at least my evenings are free.

Well. It's been an unfortunate while since I've been on deviantART, not because I haven't been produced any new work but because my computer for some reason now hates this website and no longer allows me to log on. This went on for the duration of summer. But now that I'm back on campus I now (yay!) have access to university computers. Of course, the irony of this is now I'm most likely too busy to update, which turns the hundreds of messages build-up into a horrible "welcome back" to this site. I will, however, try to pick through my messages and update the gallery when possible.

New Things Since My Absence:

1) I bought a domain name and made a new website to showcase my art. Everything new I've done in the past few months is on there (aka what I haven't been able to post here): [link]

2) My newest work is also viewable on GFX: [link]

3) My summer was lovely. How was yours?

and thank you to all who have since faved and watched me! I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

In Brief:

I am considering opening commissions for the summertime, but before I delve into specifics I want to see if anyone would be interested. Furthermore, if you are interested in commissions or just want to offer some thoughts, what exactly are you interested in? Traditional work? Digital work? Portraits? Scenes? Character sheets?

Let me know! Thanks!

...despite the appearance of my gallery, I have actually made quite an amount of new artwork since my last upload. Big projects, in fact. Colossal ones.

Studio courses can be immensely intense and exhausting. I spent many nights this semester late in the studio (1 AM, 2 AM, 3 AM...) and in combination with other classes like Calc III, I haven't exactly had much online playtime. Consequently, I have not been able to check my messages on here or comment on any deviations or upload my own work. I will get on that, now, as I am home for the summer.

Expect to see lots of new work from me, selections from the things I've made this semester. I should be a little more active, too, commenting on the art I've missed out on these past few months.
