[SINCE IT'S BEEN A LOOONNNG TIME SINCE I PUT UP A 'JOURNAL ENTRY'; and then I decided to DELETE THEM ALL the beginning of 2009.  

*Welp, I just felt like telling peeps- who actually visit my page for more than 3 seconds just to put 'thx for the fav.' comments- and tell them that, DESPITE my crappy art; I really do try.  If you actually look at the last page of my gallery, you can clearly see the improvements on certain things...  *cough*  CERTAIN things.  DX  I am working really hard, being in college and all, to become more aware, skilled, flexible, interesting, motivated, 'round-about', and everything else awesome about all the amazing artists I worship in the world!  *raises fist in determination*]  




[A LITTLE ABOUT THIS INSIGNIFICANT ONE:]  

I belong to MANY, (over 10), different art websites, but deviantART has been my fav. one to be on, visit,browse, and post on since 2006.  

*YUP!  I have MANY interests, like most balanced humans, and I don't care if anyone likes them- that's how we all should be.  IN FACT, just today on a 'ZADR & ANTI ZADR' pic. I said, "Lol, fandom usually ruins everything; people are gonna do what they want- and like what they like- and that's pretty much how it goes. I'm sure that all the creators of anything that ever become popular should of learned that by now. Hell, that's why you gotta cash-in and share your creations, orrrrrr, keep it to yourselves 'til you die. *shrug*"

*Remember, if you don't like other people's taste, why the heck would they care about your opinion on it, AND, why the heck would you waist your time disliking THEIR opinion.    PLUS, sharing your creation means you will probably be getting all sorts of feedback- good & supporting, as well as, bad & disapproval.  XP  Sooo, you just gotta do what YOU LOVE, stick with it, improve, strive forward; and always, always, ALLLLWAYSSS, motivate yourself to continue with any mocking/making fun of/hate you recieve!  B)  (It's hard sometimes, but worth it when you look back.  *hasbeenthere&isstilltherenow*  :3)

*A 'pet-peeve' I have FOR FAN ART/FICS.; and it is this:  Your freakin' OCs!  X_X  I do NOT like OCs paired up with actually existing characters!  Fine, you write fan fics./draw fan art; F.I.N.E.!!!  I don't give a crap about that, what I DO care about is your character is with a character that's a glorified version of 'you' as a character in that 'world'.  You can have your OCs, but pair them up with another of your OCs, not one of the main & most loved characters in the whole series!  *diesfromannoyance*  (Example 1- Zim from Invader Zim, Example 2- Kurama from Yu Yu Hakusho... ect. ect....)  ...It's just lame.  LAAAME.  I get it, when you're a lil' 12/13 yr. old, but for the love of all that is delicious, when you're around 14 yr.s old is when the 'obsession' should stop.  *facepalm*

*I LOVE artist/writing tips of any kind.  Recommendations of any kind.  I LOVE ART, and have had to work really hard to get where I am; and I am super hard on myself.  Had an verrry unsupportive background in school/friends/family with what I really love to draw; so I'm used to the blunt/harder side of critique.  HIT ME WITH YOUR BEST SHOT, just don't tell me I suck & hate on me without reason.  D:  If you would, show me an example, send me some links with your comments with tutorials.  I WANT TO GET BETTER!  I DESIRE IT MORE THAN ANYTHING!  (In fact, that's why I've managed to do it in other parts of my life- lost 50 lbs since 2008, and have another 40 lbs to go!  X_x)

Lol, so with the very HIGH DOUBT anyone will read this, since all the awesome, fun people who USED to watch me, DON'T anymore- because I'm only 1/3 or 1/3 active on here as I used to be 2+ years ago...  I cheer on any artist who is trying there best but isn't getting much 'attention' for it.  Don't worry, if you're not doing tons of fan art, or you're just not AMAZINGLY good, you'll not get that kind of attention online; that's what online is- popularity contest- so just focus on what YOU LOVE, get better at it, and keep loving art, no matter how few fav.s/comments you get.
