Hiyas Everyone!
Sorry for the lack of posts - I've been more immersed in work than ever, which just seems to be playing "catch-up" on other things (like bills, art pieces, among other things). I'm posting that I'm still alive & kicking (still drawing, too)...
COMPUTER STATUS
Well, with a lack of commissions, its been a bit rough on getting a new laptop (thus scanning & editing pieces), so, I'm trying to save up money while doing my regular work. Quite a bit slower in getting the money going towards it, I'm still working & getting pieces done. Mainly, I've been trying to work on a big piece, as well as blank covers (taking photos of it all), thus I can edit & post them at a later date, namely, once I get a computer. It's slow going, but it's going... Until a suitable alternative to doing the editing/tweeking can be done, we'll all have to be patient...
ART UPDATE
With art, there's actually quite a lot of pieces that have been done - both sketches & blank covers - which await some photo-editing. So far, there just hasn't been a good way to post them. While I do check both Deviantart (DA) & Facebook (FB) (my art page on there) via my cellphone, I can't do the proper editing & tweeking that I'd like to do on that device. Would just look cheesy... So, I'm waiting it out, until I can get a computer, and solve this art dilemma. While I can always take a photo of the finished stuff and send it out (available upon request), but the "finishing touches" can't be applied, thus a bit so-so on the quality. Again, at a later time, all these pieces will be edited/tweeked and posted...
OTHER
Beyond that, I'm still around - checking DA/FB for artwork, setting up more pieces to work on, while still doing commission pieces (both on blank covers and regular ones). I think, upon my getting a new computer, I will probably open up art requests a bit more (commissions are always open), and keep going forward. Also thinking of just keeping a bit more of a relaxed pace with things, until this technological setback is fixed...
Anyways, will chat with you all later, and hope to have new stuff up soon!!
Thanks for the patience!

Stance - 3M review - Status
Hiyas Everyone! It’s been some time, and I’ve been slowly moving forward (somewhat directionless) but getting some artwork done! Let’s look at the topics I have on my mind: OFFICIAL STANCE/STATUS: With Deviantart (DA), I still have been seeing that same issue of unequal censorship within this site. IF an artist is popular, suddenly the can do no wrong, posting stuff such as rape, murder (hanging & crucifixion being popular), graphic sex, and more, without any censoring, whereas any other artist even attempting to do something similar, albeit tastefully (often implying stuff like sex), get the art works removed, regardless of the rebuttal… It just makes me more annoyed & bothered by such, for an art site should allow a lot, rather than cater to the few… With all the “updates” on DA, they [Admin] only made the site murkier to use, while trying to regulate more stuff. Sure, they managed to insert a “buggy chat function” (a mixed blessing) but complicated the simplest stuff on the site –
Uncertain with DA and other stuff
Hiyas Everyone! Well, I'm not sure what to say here now... this new DeviantArt (DA) is a train-wreck which is rather unhelpful & not user-friendly, especially when I was starting to get my art going more... it really has me uncertain with posting anything here, with this mess of a system and such. While I do like "improvements" (in general), this change has been disruptive to the process of having an art site, that it just frustrates people (like me) to do even simple stuff like posting a journal or some other notification (took me over an hour to get to this point!). All this just has me wondering "WTF" with so many things... While I'm uncertain about leaving, this "train-wreck" called DeviantArt certain is trying to push people out - the BS with "reported" violations of art posts (despite the "adult" filters - why have them when you get "punished" for a viewer being able to see them), the navigation issues (journal???????), the "public domain" shift (the cause of this overhaul)
Quick Update - news - sale
Hiyas Everyone!!
QUICK UPDATE
While I know it's been a while, especially with the Covid-19 stuff and a lot of other junk, I decided to provide a quick update - yes, I am alive and gradually drawing (with limited time, thus not really much "quality" pieces sadly)... everything is ok here, tho still stuck at home and doing stuff around the house, as well as some "unfinished" items (chores around the house, and some "back burner" tasks)... so, drawing is in the works, but slowly, making more time for myself... tho still manage to check DA ;)

With being shutdown & still cooped up inside, some new artwork will be on the way, pending s
Nov-Dec Update - new addition - sketches
Hiyas Everybody!
Well, the time is flying with this Holiday season, which is hitting me more with holiday-oriented stuff with the family, thus not getting much art done. A lot of my time is being eaten up by different things (first Thanksgiving, now Christmas-oriented stuff), which has me trying to get even ONE piece out at this point. I will have to see what I can do, but not expecting to get much time to do any of the major pieces I have lined up...
NOV-DEC UPDATE
With the Season's holiday stuff in full swing with the family, I'm having a tough time getting to some art, I do have several pieces lined up (collaborations), however, each of
