Still Around and About.

As the Journals title suggest I am still here floating around DA checking back and forth between the many updates from those whom I watch and those whom are in groups I follow.
I am also back to uploading pieces of art for you all to enjoy so look forward to new pieces being uploaded within the coming days I even took the liberty in cleaning up my gallery quite a bit and anything that I had uploaded several years back are in a folder called "OLD STUFF" and they will remain in this folder because those drawings were from the old me and I feel I have grown since then and owe it to you all my followers to at least clean up house and make it presentable for a comeback of sorts so bare with me while these new drawings are being uploaded and put into new folders. (By all means though do check out my old work should you ever desire to see how I used to draw) before I forget to mention this I am looking into/working on animation I figure if I ever want to get anywhere and make it in this career that I've chosen I will work on perfecting my technique and get myself into some wrist deep hard work and thus I've been dedicating most of my time working on animations and understanding my animation program Flash CS3.

I am aware there are many other animation programs to choose from such as Toonboom, TVpaint, (Updated Flash CS6), and even Photoshop's animation function but seeing as I am currently lacking funding I am unable to branch out and get better animation programs. Id also love to get my hands on Manga Studio 5EX due to my comic i'm writing (Yes I am writing/ working on a comic as well) needs to eventually be drawn out and worked on in a program that will easy for me to set it up and publish online and lets face it while I do have Paint Tool Sai to draw/work in and make my comic it just doesn't have the set up/ability to create comic panels like MS5 does which is why MS5 is just such a program for me to use when it comes to making comics.

One thing at a time I suppose can't rush these things you see, it is as I have always been told whilst growing up "Things come to those whom wait" So until that time I'm keeping myself busy mostly perfecting my technique and learning from many of Online tutorials, my favorite artist, or fellow streamers on Picarto.TV and speaking of Picarto.TV I have my own little stream that I stream on every now and again if you all would like to come and watch me one of these days whenever you get some down time or are generally just bored and are curious as to what shenanigans I am up to feel free to stop by and come chill for a few id be more than happy to draw out some stuff and take some free request to help stretch that creative muscle that we all know and love (AKA our fabulous super computer of a
brain).

What else should I talk about in this journal.. Hmm....OH! Yes I have recently found a nifty little tool that will help me figure out how much I will be charging per hour(s) when it comes to commissions should I ever start them. I have everything I need to begin commissions just minus my own bank account. But once I have this I will open up commissions to pretty much anyone who is willing to pay me to draw them whatever they please (NOTE: I will do most of my drawings either on or off of my streams and will also have a list on my streaming account on Picarto.Tv and that list will be a list of Do's and Do not's and if whatever you commission me to draw conflicts with what I am not willing to work on I kindly ask you now to please seek out another artist to draw your commission for you.
But Al you said you would draw whatever we wanted you to? 
Yes, I did.. However Like I said above I will have a list made that are of my Do's and Do Not's and I ask you to please respect my wishes as an artist and if you can do that then we can all get along and live happily ever after.

There's not much else to really talk about in this journal other than personal life stuff and well that's confidential and on a need to know basis lol meaning it will probably never come out on here for people to read. Who knows though maybe it will but for now going to focus on the Positives of this life I am living and the direction mine is going in and do what we all are trying to do live happily doing what I love.
Until next time everyone! Stay safe and have a wonderful Morning/Day/Afternoon/Night where ever it is that you may be located or whatever time you may be reading this
