I have recently picked up the brush (a real one not a digital one). I haven't done any real traditional paintings since college and even then it was only a few acrylics done in first year. I decided to try working with oils, and it has been immensely rewarding. My first painting tentatively named "Finding light" has been submitted, and I plan on doing more paintings very soon (abstract landscapes). I would love to get your feed back on these submissions!

I have been trying to do some daily sketch/paints in Photoshop as I have been so long out of touch with that aspect of my art. Getting back into it hasn't exactly been like "riding a bike" but the daily (or rather semi-weekly) quick paints are helping. I will be including some in my scrap book steeldolphin.deviantart.com/ga… if anyone is interested in seeing them, they are certainly far from being full featured deviations but any comments you have are - as always welcome. These are done in Photoshop taking anywhere from 10min to 45min or so.

So my last entry on DA is in 2007, I need to get my shit together. I am working at the art thing again, but I have really fallen off the track and need to get back into shape so to speak. I hope to be posting some art soon... but then again I have said that before.

Cheers

Seriously though, at least I added a new deviation ;)

I haven't been around much or at all in a while, nor have I completed any new works. My website has fallen into horrible disrepair, projects like vectortown and others have been shelved and I find myself somewhat complacent in attempting to fix any of it. I have been so distracted with work and other things lately that art/design for myself has become non existant. Hopefully this will change.

There are so many things I want to do but have so little motivation to actually do it.

Sorry about not getting back to the notes, messages, etc that have piled up here in my account. I thank you all for vfisiting and taking the time to comment and leave me kind words.

I will be trying to get more art completed in the future, but I have made that promise before. :)
