Back around Easter my father had a heart attack and later a stroke. For a few days the outlook on his survival was bleak, but he has since recovered and regained his health over the last few weeks. Besides the effects of the stroke (aphasia) he is now as healthy as can he can be.

So that's what's been up with me.

a. What initially prompted me to write/draw them.

I don't generally post memes here, but hey, maybe it'll be interesting. Taken from :devlameep:

The problem with the internet: we all think we are so close, but really, we know nothing about each other. So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about.

What program do you use for your digital pieces?

The GIMP. I'm actually using a slightly outdated version since I'm used to it and don't care about the updates they've made to the program very recently.

I have, in the past, used other programs, I always mention the media at the end of the artist's comment, so you know what I used.

How do you paint with the GIMP?

For the most part, the program works very much like Photoshop or other digital programs like that. I'm not good at explaining how the program itself works.
