Summertime

Hey there beautiful people! A few bits and pieces, just because I never update this thing.

Wacom is having another Bring Your Vision to Life contest and while I could write long ramblings explanations for why you should enter, and have, I'll keep it simple and say if you're even vaguely contemplating it, go ahead and have a go. :D Crazy things can happen!

I've written 15,000 words for Nanowrimo and I am content with this. I'm not fussed if I don't get anymore, I achieved more than I set out to and I'm happy to not stress out over writing to favour my art instead.

I am contemplating cleaning my gallery and putting into storage many of my old works. But I love having them here as a show of progress over the years and a lot of people have told me they appreciate seeing them. For this reason even if I do clean out my gallery, I'll upload a bunch of the older things to my website and link them so that we can still enjoy the trips down memory lane. But just in case, if there's anything in my gallery you're very attached to, go through and save it now.

It's summertime and I love it. Summer contains wonderful things like warmth, gardenias, sunlight, thunderstorms, Christmas, New Years and even my birthday. It also means reunions with amazing people that I miss.

I will probably close commissions indefinitely at around the end of January next year when I head off to Uni.

You people are crazy with all the love you've given my recent art but I appreciate it so much, thank you! I'm sorry that I can't reply to every comment but rest assured that I'm using the time to bring you more art. =)




General Art Info

Trades and Requests: None at the moment.

COMMISSIONS: OPEN - check my guidelines here

Referencing: If you reference from or are inspired by my art, that's fine! One of my earliest drawings is of a dragon from the cover an Anne McCaffery book. However, please be decent about these things - if you reference my work heavily, in that you perhaps copy almost all of a figure, credit and link back to me if you post it.
If you've only been looking at a small part to get your head around it, credit isn't necessary. Inspiration is much the same - it's awesome that I could inspire you and you don't need to link back here as the 'source'.

Reposting: Just ask! I'm pretty lenient about these things if you're nice enough to come to me first. If the art remains unmodified (past resizing/cropping), non-profit and proper credit and a link back here is given, I'm usually fine with it.
However, I do prefer you host on your own webspace rather than mass image hosting sites that offer printing (such as Photobucket).

I'd appreciate if my work wasn't used for tubing and manipulating though - it's too easy for things like that to lose all traces back to here.

Critique: I delight in constructive critique and comments, and hell, even not constructive because it provides high entertainment. Never be afraid to critique my work - it's what makes it better. And if you are interested in receiving critique on a piece or just in general, drop me a line; I'm happy to throw my opinion all over the place. ;)

Your gallery is just bursting with color. Every picture is full of bold colors and creativity. It's been a while since I've went through many pictures in one gallery and admired their beauty.
