                <description><![CDATA[ I'd like to start sketching/drawing/arting more and begin uploading again. I uploaded two recently, and I've been feeling more inspired to draw. Eventually maybe I'll pull out my old tablet and start digitally post-editing sketches. I want to improve and reach a self-satisfactory ability -- meaning I want to be able to reflect what I see in my imagination, not necessarily be the best of the best. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />
<br />
Not much to say other than that. Except....<br />
<br />
I love you Sarah! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=)" title="=) (Smile)" /><br />

Duuuuude... I finally hit 1k! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=)" title="=) (Smile)" /><br />

In order to separate between stock photos and my art, I decided to create a separate account for the stock photos. You may see photos in here from time to time -- be they manipulated or non-manipulated -- who knows.<br />
<br />
Stock photos are open for use by anyone. Note me or leave a link to the derivative work somewhere so I can see the final product! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />
