But for those who won't:<br /><br />My deepest gratitude to ~<a class="u" href="http://coldbritto.deviantart.com/">coldbritto</a> and ^<a class="u" href="http://snowmask.deviantart.com/">snowmask</a>.<br /><br />I'm incredibly honored and surprised.  I have no words.  Thank you so very, very much.<br /><br />And to all of you crazy cats out there:  Thank you; I'm trying to get through the comments as fast as I can.  The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.  Bear with me!<br /><br />Thanks again, ALL OF YOU.  I have intentions of submitting a couple of art pieces soon, but we'll see how much my computer, and work, and life will let me do at this point.  You've given me a bit of a boost.  Thank you all, and thank you for your patience!<br /><br /><div class="plug" align="center"><a href="http://gothology.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/g/o/gothology.gif?2" alt=":icongothology:" title="gothology"/></a><a href="http://zeldalove.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/z/e/zeldalove.gif" alt=":iconzeldalove:" title="zeldalove"/></a><a href="http://art-nouveau-club.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/a/r/art-nouveau-club.jpg" alt=":iconart-nouveau-club:" title="art-nouveau-club"/></a><a href="http://entervoid.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/e/n/entervoid.gif" alt=":iconentervoid:" title="entervoid"/></a><a href="http://limestripe.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/l/i/limestripe.gif" alt=":iconlimestripe:" title="limestripe"/></a><a href="http://tuacommunity.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/t/u/tuacommunity.gif" alt=":icontuacommunity:" title="tuacommunity"/></a><a href="http://club-kokeshi.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/c/l/club-kokeshi.png?1" alt=":iconclub-kokeshi:" title="club-kokeshi"/></a></div><br /><div class="personalplug" align="center"><b>More Stuff</b><br />[<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://biimyselfandi.blogspot.com">Art Farts</a>]<br />[<a href="http://sobii.deviantart.com/journal/12278484/">Commission Info</a>]<br /><br /><b>Outside</b><br />[<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://entervoid.com">VOID</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.limestripe.net">LimeStripe</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.pulpopress.com">Pulpo Press</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://michaelacolette.com">Mickey</a>]</div> ]]></description>

As I expected, I won't be around dA very often at all anymore.  Until further notice.  I'll still be around looking at all your art, and adding pieces to my favorites to give you guys support.  Comments, however, will be sparse.  I know, it sucks, right?<br /><br />With that being said:  Thanks for the devwatches, the favorites, the comments, all of it.  I'm really, truly very appreciative of the support that everyone has given to me in my absence.  <br /><br />See you guys next time!<br /><br /><div class="plug" align="center"><a href="http://gothology.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/g/o/gothology.gif?1" alt=":icongothology:" title="gothology"/></a><a href="http://zeldalove.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/z/e/zeldalove.gif" alt=":iconzeldalove:" title="zeldalove"/></a><a href="http://art-nouveau-club.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/a/r/art-nouveau-club.jpg" alt=":iconart-nouveau-club:" title="art-nouveau-club"/></a><a href="http://entervoid.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/n/entervoid.gif" alt=":iconentervoid:" title="entervoid"/></a><a href="http://limestripe.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/i/limestripe.gif" alt=":iconlimestripe:" title="limestripe"/></a><a href="http://tuacommunity.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/t/u/tuacommunity.gif" alt=":icontuacommunity:" title="tuacommunity"/></a><a href="http://club-kokeshi.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/l/club-kokeshi.png?1" alt=":iconclub-kokeshi:" title="club-kokeshi"/></a></div><br /><div class="personalplug" align="center"><b>More Stuff</b><br />[<a href="http://biimyselfandi.blogspot.com">Art Farts</a>]<br>[<a href="http://sobii.deviantart.com/journal/12278484/">Commission Info</a>]<br /><br /><b>Outside</b><br />[<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://entervoid.com">VOID</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.limestripe.net">LimeStripe</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.pulpopress.com">Pulpo Press</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://michaelacolette.com">Mickey</a>]</br></div> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Most people will overlook this.  But for those who won't:<br /><br />I'm changing my schedule around a bit.  Yes, I now have constructed a SCHEDULE around my Starbucks work schedule.  Thanks to *<a class="u" href="http://zelas.deviantart.com/">zelas</a> for reminding me about <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.todoist.com#">ToDoist</a>.<br /><br />I'll be around deviantART certainly on Sundays, and Wednesdays (for now), giving comments and feedback.  Otherwise, I won't be around.  At ALL.<br /><br />This is because I'll be very preoccupied trying to do promotional work for <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.entervoid.com#">VOID</a>, as well as doing my own studies that will be posted at <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://biimyselfandi.blogspot.com#">Art Farts</a>.  I'm hoping to get a lot accomplished within the next couple of days, and as a result, over the next couple of months.  I'm really going to be pushing myself to the limit, and it's actually really sad that it's gotten to this point.<br /><br />Depending on how much I live up to these ridiculously strict standards I've set for myself, I may be around more.  Or maybe, even less.  We'll see what happens. <br /><br />I was very excited to receive all the input and feedback on the Critique Club idea (by the way, ~<a class="u" href="http://critique-club.deviantart.com/">critique-club</a> is not run by me, but it seemingly has gone inactive).  It is an idea I'd very much like to see "go live."  Again, we'll see what happens.<br /><br />One thing that will definitely happen this year, as opposed to all years past, is birthday gift arts.  I really, really enjoyed making "IT'S A GIFT" for my sister...  I'd like to do more.<br /><br />I'll be seeing you guys again on Wednesday.  Keep up the good work!<br /><br /><div class="plug" align="center"><a href="http://gothology.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/g/o/gothology.gif?1" width="50" height="50" alt=":icongothology:" title="gothology"/></a><a href="http://zeldalove.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/z/e/zeldalove.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconzeldalove:" title="zeldalove"/></a><a href="http://art-nouveau-club.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/a/r/art-nouveau-club.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconart-nouveau-club:" title="art-nouveau-club"/></a><a href="http://entervoid.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/n/entervoid.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconentervoid:" title="entervoid"/></a><a href="http://limestripe.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/i/limestripe.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconlimestripe:" title="limestripe"/></a><a href="http://tuacommunity.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/t/u/tuacommunity.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":icontuacommunity:" title="tuacommunity"/></a><a href="http://club-kokeshi.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/l/club-kokeshi.png?1" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconclub-kokeshi:" title="club-kokeshi"/></a></div><br /><div class="personalplug" align="center"><b>More Stuff</b><br />[<a href="http://biimyselfandi.blogspot.com">Art Farts</a>]<br>[<a href="http://sobii.deviantart.com/journal/12278484/">Commission Info</a>]<br /><br /><b>Outside</b><br />[<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://entervoid.com#">VOID</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.limestripe.net#">LimeStripe</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.pulpopress.com#">Pulpo Press</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://michaelacolette.com#">Mickey</a>]</br></div> ]]></description>

Why?  Because it's <i>soooooo fucking goth</i>.<br /><br />I'm gonna be busy for the next couple days.

My computer can kinda-sorta breathe again, which is nice and will keep me going in the mean time.<br /><br />I've got a lot of things I'd like to get done in a short amount of time, so giving feedback for art pieces is still going slow considering I'm trying to tackle a lot of things at one time...  <br /><br />I'm trying to keep myself away from Facebook, but it's really difficult.  I've become a huge, huge fan and avid player of Pet Society.<br /><br />And what's more...<br />....<br />....<br />is that I find myself <i>smoking less</i> when I play the game.<br /><br />COULD IT POSSIBLY BE MY ANTI-DRUG?  Well, at least for an hour/whatever duration I play it, because the moment I start doing something else--like art--BAM, I feel inclined to go outside for a smoke.  <i>I'm WORKIN' on it, guys</i>.<br /><br />So, some doodles may be posted.  Perhaps more Masters of the Universe stuff, and updated anatomy studies that you can see at Art Farts (spine=frightening endeavor, which is next on the list).  Depends on how adventurous I feel, if I can focus on ONE thing long enough, and if my computer feels like going along for the ride.<br /><br /><div class="menu"><div align="center">[<a href="http://biimyselfandi.blogspot.com">Art Farts</a>]<br>[<a href="http://sobii.deviantart.com/journal/12278484/">Commission Info</a>]<br /><br /><b>Outside</b><br />[<a href="http://entervoid.com">VOID</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.limestripe.net">LimeStripe</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.pulpopress.com">Pulpo Press</a>]<br />[<a href="http://michaelacolette.com">Mickey</a>]<br /><br />Clubs and Affiliations:<br /><a href="http://zeldalove.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/z/e/zeldalove.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconzeldalove:" title="zeldalove"/></a><a href="http://art-nouveau-club.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/a/r/art-nouveau-club.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconart-nouveau-club:" title="art-nouveau-club"/></a><a href="http://entervoid.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/n/entervoid.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconentervoid:" title="entervoid"/></a><a href="http://limestripe.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/i/limestripe.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconlimestripe:" title="limestripe"/></a><a href="http://tuacommunity.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/t/u/tuacommunity.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":icontuacommunity:" title="tuacommunity"/></a></br></div></div> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ HAPPY NEW YEAR.<br /><br />WOWIE ZOWIE WHERE DID MY BLUE "OTHER REALM" JOURNAL GO?  Gone with the wind, it is.  As much as I loved the layout, I had to eighty-six the files to make room on the server that I'm borrowing.<br /><br />ThepersonwhoseserverI'vebeenborrowingforthepastbilliontyyearsbelongsto~<a class="u" href="http://neoranga.deviantart.com/">neoranga</a>, gotellherhowawesomesheisandbuysomeofhergoodswhileyou'reatit.<br /><br />WHYYY MAKE ROOM ON THE SERVER?  Because I got a unexplicably epic friend who is willing to help me back up all those INTENSELY ENORMOUS image files that I can't burn onto disks.<br /><br />Thatepicfriend'snameis~<a class="u" href="http://kimikohime.deviantart.com/">kimikohime</a>gotellherhowawesomesheis.<br /><br />I would rant off a long list of resolutions, but in truth, some of these things I've already begun to put into practice.  I've already rearranged my gallery, and started in-depth critiques which sometimes take me, um, a very long time to construct.  IT'S ALL ABOUT YOU GUYS, YOU SEE.<br /><br />Unfortunately for me, being able to wrap up anatomy studies is... *sigh* ...put on hold, as expected, in light of the time-intensive events taking place.  Untimely it is, indeed, but it is what it is, and I'm dealing with it.<br /><br />I would like to thank everyone who's reading this for...well...giving <i>me</i> the time of day, so to speak, and for all your patience.  Thank you for all the support, in terms of comments, encouraging words, and all other types of feedback, adding me to your deviant watch lists, and including my pieces among some of your favorites here on deviantART.  You guys are the best that any one could ask for, and I mean that with everything that is left of me.  I don't think I'd be where I am, artistically, and emotionally, if it weren't for all of you.<br /><br />Although I'm not really open to share my own ambitions for 2009 (who wants to hear about mine, anyway?), I'd love to hear what you guys are planning.  So drop a comment or two.  I'm rather curious!<br /><br /><div class="menu"><div align="center">[<a href="http://biimyselfandi.blogspot.com">Art Farts</a>]<br>[<a href="http://sobii.deviantart.com/journal/12278484/">Commission Info</a>]<br /><br /><b>Outside</b><br />[<a href="http://entervoid.com">VOID</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.limestripe.net">LimeStripe</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.pulpopress.com">Pulpo Press</a>]<br />[<a href="http://michaelacolette.com">Mickey</a>]<br /><br />Clubs and Affiliations:<br /><a href="http://zeldalove.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/z/e/zeldalove.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconzeldalove:" title="zeldalove"/></a><a href="http://art-nouveau-club.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/a/r/art-nouveau-club.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconart-nouveau-club:" title="art-nouveau-club"/></a><a href="http://entervoid.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/n/entervoid.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconentervoid:" title="entervoid"/></a><a href="http://limestripe.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/i/limestripe.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconlimestripe:" title="limestripe"/></a><a href="http://tuacommunity.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/t/u/tuacommunity.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":icontuacommunity:" title="tuacommunity"/></a></br></div></div> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Cards finished: 21/22.<br /><br />I decided against "no. 22".  I threw homemade cookies at the problem instead.  So, I did get everything I <i>wanted</i> to get DONE...<br /><br />I know it's already the 26.  I actually slept through most of Christmas Day, after watching "Sukiyaki Western Django" with my dad...  Missed a text message from a friend...<br /><br />It was the nicest sleep I've had in months.  And it was the nicest Christmas--the month leading up to the Big Day, included--I've had in about five years.<br /><br />My condolences to those who have a different opinion/sentiment about their own holiday (a surprising amount of "I HATE THE HOLIDAYS"-titled journals from other dA members leading up to the 25th this year...).<br /><br />But for me, I think my holiday was good because it was very...simple.  We worked within our means, and like everyone else, means are very very limited.  We didn't bite off more than we could chew.  It was actually calming, which is completely and utterly contradictory to the idea of the Holidays, right?  And everyone was actually HAPPY.  No massive onslaught of presents and miscellaneous doodads--and the things that I got this year were positively USEFUL. My sister listened to me when I said, "If you're going to buy me something, buy me something I can use--like a case of Red Bull."  She bought me two cases.<br /><br />So, for everyone out there who may read this, I hope your holiday was a good one, and I hope that those that were on the verge of going sour turned out okay.  I mean it.<br /><br />See you again soon!<br /><br /><div class="menu"><div align="center">[<a href="http://biimyselfandi.blogspot.com">Art Farts</a>]<br>[<a href="http://sobii.deviantart.com/journal/12278484/">Commission Info</a>]<br /><br /><b>Outside</b><br />[<a href="http://entervoid.com">VOID</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.limestripe.net">LimeStripe</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.pulpopress.com">Pulpo Press</a>]<br />[<a href="http://michaelacolette.com">Mickey</a>]<br /><br />Clubs and Affiliations:<br /><a href="http://zeldalove.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/z/e/zeldalove.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconzeldalove:" title="zeldalove"/></a><a href="http://art-nouveau-club.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/a/r/art-nouveau-club.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconart-nouveau-club:" title="art-nouveau-club"/></a><a href="http://entervoid.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/n/entervoid.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconentervoid:" title="entervoid"/></a><a href="http://limestripe.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/i/limestripe.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconlimestripe:" title="limestripe"/></a><a href="http://tuacommunity.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/t/u/tuacommunity.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":icontuacommunity:" title="tuacommunity"/></a></br></div></div> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Translation:  My computer is dying.<br /><br />...And I can't back up anything that I've accomplished since September 2008 because my computer refuses to write data discs.  So much for back-ups.<br /><br />What doesn't help is that I'm a complete idiot when it comes to anything computer-related.  I know programs/applications, yes--but making backups of those applications in the event something like <i>this</i> happens is something I don't really know how to do correctly...so I never did back them up. (Smart status: failing, indeed.)<br /><br />Which means I'm going to have to contact Corel at some point in time in the future to see if I can weasel my way out of purchasing Painter a second time for a new computer, considering that I purchased it as a digital download (no installation disc).  But that's only if I can scrounge up $500 extra dollars in change from the floor of my room.<br /><br />I'm in a slump--trying to pull things together and finish what I can--but just so everyone knows that one day, I may just fall off the face of internet earth.  This is actually really hard for me.<br /><br />...Ugh, anyways, feel free to join me in the personal woes corner...  We can all bitch, sob, moan and groan together about how retarded things have been.<br /><br /><div class="menu"><div align="center">[<a href="http://biimyselfandi.blogspot.com">Art Farts</a>]<br>[<a href="http://sobii.deviantart.com/journal/12278484/">Commission Info</a>]<br /><br /><b>Outside</b><br />[<a href="http://entervoid.com">VOID</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.limestripe.net">LimeStripe</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.pulpopress.com">Pulpo Press</a>]<br />[<a href="http://michaelacolette.com">Mickey</a>]<br /><br />Clubs and Affiliations:<br /><a href="http://zeldalove.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/z/e/zeldalove.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconzeldalove:" title="zeldalove"/></a><a href="http://art-nouveau-club.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/a/r/art-nouveau-club.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconart-nouveau-club:" title="art-nouveau-club"/></a><a href="http://entervoid.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/n/entervoid.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconentervoid:" title="entervoid"/></a><a href="http://limestripe.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/i/limestripe.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconlimestripe:" title="limestripe"/></a><a href="http://tuacommunity.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/t/u/tuacommunity.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":icontuacommunity:" title="tuacommunity"/></a></br></div></div> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Taken virtually verbatim from ^<a class="u" href="http://estudio.deviantart.com/">estudio</a> and $<a class="u" href="http://moonbeam13.deviantart.com/">Moonbeam13</a>, respectively, considering the original message needed no alteration: SO HEAR US OUT!<br /><br />If you haven't heard, yes. I am diagnosed positive with HIV. And as today marks the 27th Anniversary of its discovery, I would like to share this with you.<br /><br />Having HIV is not like what it was in the past decade. People living with HIV/AIDS itself will understand. People without it are often encased in a stigma of uncertainty.<br /><br />However, it's not about the human immunodeficiency virus I am talking about here. No, I don't have that so you can breathe again. Think of HIV+ as this:<br /><br /><div align="center"><b>Health IS Valuable (Positive)</b></div><br /><br />Current HIV/AIDS education has often most likely fallen onto alot of deaf ears. They've tried everything from print ads, tv slots, movies, flyers, and millions and millions of dollars spent on HIV/AIDS Awareness programs. How many percent of respondents actually give a fuck? (pun intended). Yet the number of people infected keeps rising and rising by the second.<br /><br />Change your stigma. Stop your ignorance. If you don't have it, doesn't mean you won't. So you might as well believe that you ALREADY have HIV+ (of course, my version of it). THINK. RESPECT. PROTECT. Together we can end HIV prejudice. If you dare, tell the world you are indeed HIV+. Say it with me: HEALTH IS VALUABLE (POSITIVE). This is one HIV+ you wanna spread! And I dare you to do the same by doing a "Hi. My name is _______ & I am HIV+" journal.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.worldaidsday.org/images/WAD/ribbon_download.gif" alt="World Aids Day"><br /><br />What is World AIDs day?<br /><br />World AIDS Day is an opportunity to be inspired to respect and protect the health and well-being of ourselves and those around us through knowledge, action and consideration.<br /><br />Are HIV and AIDS the same?<br />No. When someone is described as living with HIV, they have the HIV virus in their body. A person is considered to have developed AIDS when the immune system is so weak it can no longer fight off a range of diseases with which it would normally cope.<br /><br />Get Involved<br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletred.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletred:" title="Bullet; Red" />Sport a red ribbon.

                <description><![CDATA[ There comes a point in an aspiring artist's life when they look at what they're doing, and question it.<br /><br />...Well, perhaps others who possess photographic memory or were actually educated in art (as in, college, where they were FORCED to learn things) were more fortunate, but not me.  Not so much.<br /><br />This goes without saying that I will be present, but I will mostly be doing an all-out personal art overhaul.  And I'm sticking to it, 1,000%.  Which means all that stuff I was going to do for you guys?  You know--those who I owe commissions, favors?  Who I owe like, everything?  Yeah.  I simply don't possess the capacity to do something worth your attention at the moment, and I am going on "painting" hiatus to focus on basics.  This way, when I start something, I actually will finish it, and it'll look ...well, <i>good</i>, to be frank.<br /><br />...Because right now I'm beyond disappointed with myself.  I'm <i>furious</i>.  And I need to be reacquainted with foundations that I never got a good grasp on to begin with.<br /><br />As I said, I will be present; as part of the learning process I will be giving feedback--perhaps too much feedback.  Nothing 100% facts, but just <i>from my perspective</i>.  I feel it necessary to clarify that because I don't want any hard feelings.  I can <i>sound</i> mean, and harsh, but that isn't my intent.  <br /><br />If you would like, for any reason, to see what I've been doing, and what I will be doing...  Please visit <a href="http://biimyselfandi.blogspot.com">Art Farts</a>.  I think it is very-much-so appropriate in name.  I chose the blog alternative because I'm not quite sure you guys want your dA inboxes bogged down with, <i>ha</i>,  "plain ol' boring anatomy stuff".<br /><br />And that's all I have to say about that.<br /><br /><div class="menu"><div align="center">[<a href="http://biimyselfandi.blogspot.com">Art Farts</a>]<br>[<a href="http://sobii.deviantart.com/journal/12278484/">Commission Info</a>]<br><br /><br /><b>Outside</b><br />[<a href="http://entervoid.com">VOID</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.limestripe.net">LimeStripe</a>]<br />[<a href="http://www.pulpopress.com">Pulpo Press</a>]<br />[<a href="http://michaelacolette.com">Mickey</a>]<br /><br />Clubs and Affiliations:<br /><a href="http://zeldalove.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/z/e/zeldalove.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconzeldalove:" title="zeldalove"/></a><a href="http://art-nouveau-club.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/a/r/art-nouveau-club.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconart-nouveau-club:" title="art-nouveau-club"/></a><a href="http://entervoid.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/n/entervoid.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconentervoid:" title="entervoid"/></a><a href="http://limestripe.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/i/limestripe.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconlimestripe:" title="limestripe"/></a></br></br></div></div> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Is a song by Deep Purple.<br /><br />I'm trying to do this as concise as humanly possible with utmost composure.  <br /><br />My deepest thanks and regards to =<a class="u" href="http://k0r2n3h.deviantart.com/">K0R2N3H</a> and ^<a class="u" href="http://skifi.deviantart.com/">skifi</a>.  I also extend my gratitude to those who have supported me in my endeavors, as they seem to go off in tangents along a very broad spectrum.  I'm incredibly overwhelmed and cannot thank you each, individually, as my sister is bothering me to sync all her CDs to her iPod and I have many, many, many, many things to accomplish in a short time.  I really have to use my week off from work to my advantage. <br /><br />If time allows, I will respond to any questions/comments/complaints that you have.<br /><br />I have no words.  Thank you. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /> x infinity.<br /><br />Now, about that pot of coffee....<br /><br /><div class="menu"><div align="right"><br />[<a href="http://sobii.deviantart.com/journal/12278484/">Commission Info</a>]<br /><br /><b>Outside</b><br />[<a href="http://entervoid.com">VOID</a>] [<a href="http://www.pulpopress.com">Pulpo Press</a>] [<a href="http://michaelacolette.com">Mickey</a>]<br /><br />Club-chans:<br /><a href="http://zeldalove.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/z/e/zeldalove.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconzeldalove:" title="zeldalove"/></a><a href="http://art-nouveau-club.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/a/r/art-nouveau-club.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconart-nouveau-club:" title="art-nouveau-club"/></a><a href="http://entervoid.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/n/entervoid.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconentervoid:" title="entervoid"/></a></div></div> ]]></description>

Sexual implications are okay, but I reserve the right to deny any commission request along those lines.<br />Â<b>The Less Room You Give Me, The More Space I've Got.</b>  I ask that you please, please, PLEASE be specific in your commission request description, demands, and please provide references if applicable.  My artwork covers a very broad range of emotions and <i>interpretations</i>.  What you imagine, and what I could imagine, are more than likely polar opposites.  So please...<b>BE SPECIFIC</b> if it's that important to you.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Rates:<br /><b>$20 per commission</b>.  It's really just that simple.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Dimensions:<br />No larger than 8 x 11, 300 PPi.<br /><br />Note: PPI = pixels per inch. This is for the printing quality of the image. The standard image printing resolution is 300 PPI, and I believe my fellow art appreciators and artists deserve no less than that.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> Processing:<br />Black and white lineart, monochromatic toned lineart/paintings, and color commissions:<br />1) Contact me via Deviantart notes or email<br />2) Confirmation of order<br />3) Sketch and other necessary work-in-progress is shown to you for approval<br />4) Watermarked preview is shown for your approval<br />5) Payment in full<br />6) Full quality JPEG file emailed to you.<br /><br />Sketch commissions:<br />1) Contact me via Deviantart notes or email.<br />2) Confirmation of order<br />3) Watermarked preview is shown for your approval<br />4) Payment in full<br />5) Full quality JPEG file emailed to you.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" />Notes:<br />ÂI prefer commissions that donÂt have a deadline, because I tend to do better work when I am not under pressure. Commissions are also done on a first-come, first-serve basis. I will not push your commission ahead of others before you because your boyfriend's birthday is in two days.<br /><br />ÂI do not print and mail paper copies of the image.<br /><br />ÂI will not post the image online unless you ask or agreed to let me do so. Posted images will be heavily watermarked.<br /><br />ÂUnless you are actively participating in the WAVE O' BABIES program, do not request an illustration simply for your viewing pleasure.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" />Payment method:<br />At this time, Only Paypal payments are accepted.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" />Discounts and price adjustments:<br />ÂDiscounts are given to 5 or more pieces ordered at the same time, in this case, you are required to pay 50% of the estimated total upon confirmation of order.<br /><br />For other questions, please comment below.<br /><br />Commission line-up:<br />1.  ~<a class="u" href="http://kimikohime.deviantart.com/">kimikohime</a><br />2.  *<a class="u" href="http://zelas.deviantart.com/">zelas</a> (pending)<br />3.<br />4.<br />5.<br /><br />WAVE O' BABIES line-up:<br />1. 3 for =<a class="u" href="http://marron.deviantart.com/">marron</a><br /><br />Club-chans:<br /><a href="http://zeldalove.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/z/e/zeldalove.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconzeldalove:" title="zeldalove"/></a><a href="http://art-nouveau-club.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/a/r/art-nouveau-club.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconart-nouveau-club:" title="art-nouveau-club"/></a><a href="http://entervoid.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/n/entervoid.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconentervoid:" title="entervoid"/></a> ]]></description>
