                <description><![CDATA[ So 2008 is winding down and it hardly seems possible. Seems like yesterday I was registering for classes for the spring and now here I am, procrastinating my finals away so that I become uberly stressed out and am forced to pull an all-weekender and somehow get it all done and graduate in a flaming ball of victory!! <br /><br />Ok anyways, I haven't had much time for art this semester, what with all the studying and trying-to-do-my-best business. Hopefully two A's and two B's... I'm planning on going through the whole Photoshop Classroom In a Book and learn all the cool tricks in there and then see where I'm at. Wish me luck!<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />Wes<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Also, you tube shows me that videogame sounds make most cool videos even cooler.

                <description><![CDATA[ So, today is my B-Day... 23 years ago I was a squirming, screaming bundle of flesh... and now I am just a bigger version of that, haha. Or, as some of my friends say, today is the 2nd anniversary of my 21st birthday, because that's the most fun b-day and everyone after that is depressing... but I don't know if I would want to stay 21 forever... and that works out 'cause it's not really a choice...<br /><br />But I digress. <br /><br />So since it is my birthday, this may be presumptuous or greedy, but if anyone who reads this would like to make me some birthday-gift-art, it would probably make my day, or week, or possibly month, if not year. Anything would be great, mostly because I anticipate zero response, but hey, ya gotta try. Let the birthday festivities begin!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So my job at the library gives me lots of time on the computer. So I peruse dA a lot. But I feel like a bum, because I am just looking at other people who can draw instead of actually drawing and increasing my skills like I should be. Drat! Oh well, one way to get better is to learn from other artists, right? Oh well. Working at the library also has the perk of being able to look up and check out books whenever I want, seeing as how I am in the library exponentially more than I ever was before. So I checked out some how-to-draw-anatomy books and hopefully that will help me... if I ever start drawing. School just gets in the way... that and spending time with the new g/f <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> Oh well, you gotta prioritize. I'm reading alot more these days, so that's good. Take care all!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, I've given it some thought, and after a few recent events, I've decided to remove my avatars section from my gallery. #1, they're attracting a lot of weird characters to my page. Lots of 'expansion' fans and such. If you fall into this category and don't like being called weird, you are welcome to search for one of the many other deviants who enjoy similar tastes as you so you can feel better about yourself. #2, a ladyfriend has found her way into my life, seemingly causing Miss Pinder to not quite do it for me in the ways she once did. Heaven forbid a real girl take her place... but it actually is happening. Never thought it would but, here I am and I must say I'm pleased. My last girlfriend didn't appreciate my being a fan of the busty british model, yet nontheless my, dare I say, obsession with Lucy continued, a point of much argument between us. That relationship ended in May and thus my appreciation for Pinder blossomed back out of hiding. But now, I have met a beautiful girl who seems to enjoy my company and... let's just say she satisfies whatever my last girlfriend was lacking and whatever I was looking for when I prowled the 'net for pictures of Lucy. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> So now that I have totally overshared with you all, I'll go ahead and admit what I've known all along. The avatars weren't really art, just gifs ripped from video files. I enjoy sketching and drawing and digital painting with my wacom pen & tablet and want to hone and improve my skills with those... and produce things that are actually considered art.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Dammit. Of course I finally get around to submitting more artwork and what happens? Maintenance. "Check back in 5 minutes." It's 3:30 in the freakin' morning! I should have been in bed long ago. I guess 5 minutes won't kill me. So here I am, wasting five minutes.<br /><br />You know, I don't really pay attention to what deviations I add to my favorites, but I looked through them today and I saw a few recurring themes. Apparently I like: robots, scantily-clad voluptuous babes, things with guns, things with swords, angels and/or other winged creatures, fire/explosions, and piratey things. And the occasional landscape piece. So I don't know what all that says about me, except what it is. <br /><br />Ok, sorry this journal sucks, nobody reads it and I'm just trying to kill time anyway.<br /><br />Oh yeah, I know it might be kind of cheating to use my gifs and the prospect of boobs-in-motion to attract visitors, but just the fact that I used the phrase "boobs-in-motion", now twice, will probably get me more hits. And also, I don't care. Cheers!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So where did 2007 go? It was like WHAM! I'M HERE! Now it's like sneak sneak sneak away.... like a ninja... Sorry, I've been watching the Ask A Ninja episodes... ALOT. They are really damn hilarious, though, so you should check 'em out. Just get on YouTube and search for "ask a ninja" and be prepared to laugh. Anyways. I haven't submitted a lot of art because school sucks and I don't have time. I've sketched a few things over the months, but nothing noteworthy. Maybe I'll scan them. Meh. And I haven't made any animated gifs, which is unfortunate because they seem to be my most popular submissions. OH and photoshop is not working on my computer and I don't know what's wrong with it and it makes me sad. In fact, I even put my wacom back in the box it's been so long since I've used it... how sad. Oh well. Finals suck and so I must go attack them... LIKE A NINJA!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yeah, I definitely mowed the backyard in the rain today. It wasn't pouring, but I was like, "Dammit, I am not going to stop for some sprinkles. It ain't getting any drier." So I just plowed on through the rain. But now, it's coming down like cats and dogs. Like a cow peeing on a flat rock. Like build an Ark, the flood is coming. Seriously. Okay, but really all this rain is just gonna make the grass grow right back and make me have to mow it again...<br />
<br />
I need to come up with some schematics for a lawn-laser-grid device that when your grass gets too high, these little spigot-looking things pop up out of your lawn, and then send out these cutting lasers and just zaps the grass to the desired length, and then go back down into the ground. Like sprinklers. But lawn-lasers. Genius, I know. So don't take my idea, I'm gonna be rich some day. And no one (who has money) will have to mow the yard again. And it'll be bad times for a burglar if you catch 'em sneaking around your yard at night... Ouch. But I guess if you're rich enough you just pay the neighbor kid to do it... or The Lawn Ranger, I saw his van driving around the neighborhood recently while on a jog.<br />
<br />
Sometimes I think about becoming a writer. But most writers I read about live a life and have experience before they write. They have crazy stories to draw from to be writers. Maybe I do have crazy stories and should write. I'd like to get paid to do it. Like my Dad. Who is awesome, by the way. Let the internet know, that I love my Dad and that if I could be as great a man as he is, I would consider my life a success. Just so the internet knows. He's a great guy and I hate disappointing him. I know I probably put too much pressure on myself to impress my parents and that I should do things to make me happy... but when you look up to someone and admire them, don't you seek their approval? That if they set the bar for what you think of as a successful human being, if you do something they approve of, then doesn't that give you validation? That you're doing something right?<br />
<br />
I dunno, just thoughts. Tumbling around. Like clothes in a dryer. Hot and tumbly. And feels great when you take 'em right out and put 'em on, like a pair of jeans but OUCH the buttons are hot... So you dance around in your clean, dry, hot pants. Mmm... Haha. Have you ever done that? I need to do laundry... dammit. Just wash yourselves. I'm sure I could invent a machine that takes your clothes and adds the water and the soap and kind of mixes 'em around... oh... wait, what?... they already have that?... and there's one in the other room?... Damn...<br />
<br />
Okay, now this thing is just getting useless, if you've stayed this long you get a medal. Ha. Have a good day. Thanks for stopping by.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So the other night I had this badass dream that I was a dragon, and I was flying around with all my dragon friends, zooming around among the clouds. All the clouds were really puffy and big and billowy and it made like a canyon of clouds and I remember thinking how beautiful it was. And the feeling of the wind rushing around me as I dove in between the clouds and up and away from the world, only to dive back down again. So I tried to sketch what I remember from it. And it ended up not looking like how I remembered it. Haha. I wish I was a good enough artist that I could accurately depict how awe-inspiring and how much damn fun it was to fly and be a dragon. Just imagine something intensely awesome and fun, and that's what it was like... sort of. So maybe I'll get around to scanning in the sketches and sharing. I kind of want to commission a really good artist and relate a scene from my dreams to them and have them bring it to life, but I've got other things to spend money on... Like groceries.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, I'm addicted to making avatars now. Unfortunately, it is painstakingly monotonous to do. But the end result is kind of fun and people seem to like them, so I shall continue. I just wish there was a faster way to do it... If I could then maybe it wouldn't cut into my study time as much. Man, taking class in summertime is such a drag. I don't wanna do anything! I just want to eat, sleep, browse dA and... yeah, I guess that's about it. Haha. Boring. Well maybe I'll study now... or sleep...<br />
<br />
Oh yeah... I guess it's worth mentioning: I broke up with the girlfriend recently. You know when you've been with a person long enough and you just don't have that same light inside you go off when they walk in the room and you just kind of go "ugh" when they call... it's time to move on. That kind of comes off as shallow, but what I mean to say is that the reason you date someone is to find if they are a suitable mate, right? Well, I found out. She isn't. I hate breakin' hearts, but sometimes it just has to be done. So, I'm kind of awkward talking to girls now, I have to remember that it's ok again to do it. So anyways. Peace.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So things have been lively recently, both in good and bad ways. I have started drawing again, so that's good. I am generally more happy when I can express myself. But people have been pissing me off for no good reason. I was supposed to be living with a friend this summer but through a series of shady events I have been ousted. And I'm too nice to bitch at him about it. I will just refuse to help him in any way in the future. So screw you, you. You know who you are, except that you don't read this. Blah. Me and my girl had a rough patch but now they seem better than ever, so yay. I'm trying to use my wacom. Progress is slow... I shall keep trying.<br />
<br />
Also, my birthday is coming up, so any benevolent souls out there that would like to give me a subscription to dA, that would be AWESOME and I would love you for a long time.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

My girlfriend granted my wish and bought me a wacom tablet for christmas. I was pretty thrilled and I've messed around with it some, I'll post some of my doodlings sometime.

Maybe I'll get around to posting it. Also, I want a graphics tablet BADLY but am broke and if anyone, for whatever reason, wants to buy me an Wacom Intuos3 6x8 graphics tablet out of the goodness of their hearts, the world would be a better place because of it.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So it's a little late, but who cares. It'll be '06 for a while. To all the people I'm subscribed to, thanks for producing lovely art for me to admire. To all the people who have stopped by my site, thanks a lot. Just doing the college thing... you know... stuff. Peace. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, somehow I'm subscribed for about a week. I'm not sure how, perhaps I shouldn't have clicked 'next' on that window that popped up... But to whatever entity/person that assisted in me being subscribed for a bit, thanks. No new art to upload... right now I'm just kind of lurking... everybody keep doing what their doing.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So back in school + back in the Corps + back with friends + back with girlfriend = no time to draw... although I guess if I REALLY wanted to I could make time for it... Bleh. I sketched some random shit yesterday, so I may scan that and post it... just to put something new. Not that I have any loyal fans, just for my own sense of accomplishment. Alright, deuce. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, today was my last day of work, this weekend I'm moving back into the dorm. I am not ashamed to say I'm ready to go back to school. Work paid good and Mom fed me good and being a lazy bum was good... but I'll tolerate being broke and eating marginally and being wound-up busy all the time just to be with my friends and live in Aggieland again. Seriously. Hopefully I'll have time to continue to post my drawings, I'm really looking forward to having the fat .edu pipe to browse everybody else's art with. Dial-up sucks. Anyways, if you visit, please shoot me a comment. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So my most recent drawings are the angel attempt and the dream bike. I went out and bought a sketch pad to commemorate my return to art. I don't have many deviations ready yet, simply because I'm too critical of my work and don't feel like even though a drawing is complete, that it isn't worthy of the title: "Deviation". So do me a favor and check out my sketches and tell me what you think. Thanks. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I thought I had looked everywhere for my old sketches, and I was sure that I had lost them or thrown them out accidentally, when, of course, I found them in the last drawer of the last corner of my room, covered up by some stuff. So I'll try to get those scanned and put on here this afternoon and maybe someone will comment on them. 'Til then, back to work. ]]></description>
