                <description><![CDATA[ This news makes me very sad: <a href="http://scuzzo.deviantart.com/">[link]</a><br /><br />For two reasons: 1. People forced this man to leave by behaviour. This would not have been the case had he not been so popular. I've seen far worse than this grace the front page of DA, and annoyingly often. 2. Self-censorship. The fear of offending. Alas. I don't like it when my favourites gallery is altered.<br /><br />I'm glad I'm not popular.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ HaHa! Art has been made. Nothing too special, but something none the less. I also have work that needs done for Nouse, which is nice. Alas, my job eats away my time and energy, but I hope to steal away enough time to get things done.<br />
<br />
Hopefully I shall be posting more soon.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
Life is in flux and I have no idea what the outcome will be nor what I want it to be.<br />
<br />
In all honesty, I have no idea what I'm doing or why.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ For about a week now, every time I put pencil to paper I feel like I'm drawing with gloves on. It is a strange and frustrating feeling. I can't seem to put the image in front of me onto the page correctly and it infuriates me. With my last few uploads I felt like I was on a roll, and now I am in a rut. Fuck.<br />
<br />
I've just finished a photo shoot with my girlfriend who has been kind enough to pose for some new drawings. I feel I cannot do her justice at this time and it is like tripping over a hurdle near the finishing line. I was at the head of the race for so long, feeling unstoppable, only to trip, fall and lose. [hmm...perhaps an over dramatic choice of analogy].<br />
<br />
Alas, I cannot feed off frustration as I can with some other emotions.<br />
<br />
Probably the worst factor is that I have no idea how long this will last.<br />
<br />
At least I now have a job and income. I was really starting to worry about that recently.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ A good friend of mine writes for the York university paper, Nouse. He seems to do mostly film related articles, and is very good at it. Recently he suggested to the powers that be that I should create the illustration for what I believe will be a regular column called "Socially Retarded" (the end product can be viewed here: <a href="http://a-hanley-creations.deviantart.com/art/Socially-Retarded-Nouse-69853853">[link]</a> ).<br />
<br />
I am happy to announce that this (free) commission has now led to what I hope will be a regular job (of sorts). Truth be told: I should be working on my next commission right now...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ A few weeks ago, I realised that I had been a member of Deviantart for 5 years (only recently did I move to this new account, so I may look younger than that) and I had never felt so excluded. I re-uploaded some of my old art here and it has been so regularly ignored I genuinely no longer held hope for any form of popularity or feedback - this, however, did not stop my desire to draw, paint and experiment. This is not to say I think my art deserves better, I just wish I could feel like part of a community. I've always been a fan of what is not popular, which makes life difficult in many respects. The strangest thing is my art had received more attention in my last account than in this one. Times, it seems, have changed, and I cannot compete with short, immature and tiresome comic strips.<br />
<br />
Imagine then my surprise when <a href="http://a-hanley-creations.deviantart.com/art/Sing-for-the-others-69296760">[link]</a> became somewhat of an overnight success. Although it was nowhere near on par with some artists out there, for me this is a significant step up. I do not believe this is my best work, but it is in the style I am now becoming comfortable with. I am more than thankful for this support and I just wanted to make my appreciation known.<br />
<br />
I would also like to thank models Mars Ayane (mars-ayane) and Evon Tan (evont), as well as photographers Lee (surfrat13) and Lincoln Luke Chanis (equinoxe7) for their inspiration and support. Not only is their work amazing, but they have all been very positive about my portraits, which is a great feeling and I have only the best of wishes for all of them in their artistic endeavours.<br />
<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ After a relatively creative summer (especially considering how little I drew while at university) I now find myself in a very frustrating situation. I have attempted to hone my style into something new 3 or 4 times these past few days with disappointing (at best) results. I have been getting heavily into comic book art recently and I desperately wish I could get close to the skills and styles of people like Ashley Wood and David Mack, but I cannot...at least, not yet. When trying something new I suppose it is only natural to have a teething stage in which one will fuck up more often than not, but it doesn't make it any less disheartening.<br />
<br />
Things change, given time...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I have always felt that the problem with free and easy webspaces like deviantart and myspace is that you get all the benefits and problems of opening anything up to the public: Too much stuff. Yes, we may get access to music and art we would never find otherwise, but the amount of shit we must wade through to find it is increasingly frustrating. The vast amount of music that is not only rubbish, but also stupid and uninspired, on myspace is almost embarrassing. The same problem also surfaces here. I have found myself more and more often looking at deviations thinking, "this is not art". Pictures of teenage girls and their friends, MS Paint scribbles of some anime character with massive eyes saying something like, "Oh Noes, teh n00bs!" is deeply depressing. I used to be able to let it slide over me and I would find something magical by the end of it all, but now I am worried by the community in general. The catalyst for this rant was the 7th most popular (at the time of writing) deviation, "The Sora Song": <a href="http://lynxgriffin.deviantart.com/art/The-Sora-Song-44915932">[link]</a><br />
Nothing about this is good. The song is bad, not only because of its laziness, but also its clumsiness; the art is bad - considering none of it was animated, the artist could have tried a little harder and worked outside of flash - which brings me to the flash work, which was very little. Out of all the millions of deviations, and the thousands of great artists here, why the fuck is this so popular? I really don't understand. Even the humour is poor. Fuck cute. There is better work out there.<br />
<br />
My apologies to lynxgriffin, I realise you may have worked hard on that, but you are still overrated. Not your fault, but a flaw with the system. Sorry.<br />
<br />
Alas, deviantart is deviating from art. Maybe I am not one to judge, I am not better than you, but that was simply my own opinion.<br /><br /> ]]></description>
