Journal Entry: Sat Nov 14, 2009, 2:32 PM

Greetings!

Hello all!

I've been meaning to do a journal entry earlier but my subscription ran out last week and I didn't want my lovely journal skin to disappear, but I figured I had to at some point!

Thanks for all the lovely feedback on my previous journal, I'm glad everybody took it the right way, as I only had good intentions in mind! . I haven't really had much time to answer all the comments yet but I'm slowly getting around to answering one-by-one.

Well, as I've said every year... EXAMS!! Haha, but I'm not panicking this year, no no no. I'm quite confident really, although I shouldn't be because I only had confidence in one exam last time, and that one exam was the one I did really bad on, and all the others I had no confidence in at all... I got really good marks for... so I don't know what to think any more.

But yes, exams.

But I really wanted to talk about a few changes I intend on making around here, you've heard me whine and complain and sook about... minimal things. But I really intend to use my dA account more for art now, if something that I think has real significance to my art happens then yeah I might talk about it, but I'm sick of telling my life story in every single journal entry. Instead I have a book for that stuff now, I just write in it when I feel like I have something to say, and you all know how much I always have to say.

So yeah, art stuff!!

Right now I'm sticking to my scribbles as it's really the only way I feel comfortable drawing right now, I mean I love using pencils and so on, but when I use them, I feel like I have to sit down and actually put extreme effort into it, but when I scribble with my 0.4 thickness fine-liner, I don't care if I make a mistake, and I draw whatever I like. I have no idea why, some stupid psychological glitch probably, but I like it that way. Perhaps in time I would like to focus purely on fine-liner work. But that could be weeks away yet, I'm still contemplating finishing that previous upload of mine (I would put a thumb here... but no sub see, I keep forgetting ) but because it's in pencil, I feel like I have to be prepared and do everything according to what I'm told.

So that's my latest art-related chatter. Only a heavy paragraph but it's something for now, it'll expand to maybe TWO paragraphs in future .

For now, I hope you're all enjoying the current fall/autumn/spring weather, and you're all keeping well.

Peace and respect ,
-Chip
