Change of creative outlet
I have decided to do some writing as well! This I find somewhat easier than drawing, so keep tuned!
My style is mainly fantasy, but I do some related genre work as well, such as science fiction, alternative reality, medieval. I love writing long stories, but sometimes short stories are more accessible to online readers.
Ever since I have learnt to touchtype I have managed to do all sorts of wonderful things with text on a computer. Some time I must play typershark again, just to see how good I am.
All of my public writing I do on sta.sh, which has this awesome autosave function. Evidently the disk that they have the work stored on is
New work in Scraps
I got reminded today of how important it is to have the right tools when painting. Finally today I have produced something worthy to show my family, it's in scraps because it looks hurried, but it could have gone into my main gallery, and I'm happy with it. I plan to digitally paint every day, even if it's only for an hour, I'm very busy but art keeps me going. Also wouldn't it be cool to become a concept artist and get paid for doing something you really like.

I'll comment on yours if you comment on mine
Repeating the last bit of my last journal entry, if you comment on any of my pictures I'll comment on your pictures. I'm currently waiting for the contest results to the Kiseki contest 31st July, the Zen Master Challenge 11th July, Draw Hoshi contest 30th July, Snowy-Ninja's contest 21st July, The Lost Kids Art Contest 8th August. Also I have just discovered a great way of copying pictures when the canvas goes off the screen - simply start off with a canvas within the screen, then later enlarge the canvas and continue the picture. I'm practising my colouring with openCanvas, which at the moment seems to fall short of its objective.
Update: S
I'm drawing one a day
At the moment my current strategy of pencil outlines and digital colouring appear to be coming on nicely, with the pictures done in a reasonable length of time. If I had known I would have improved so fast I would have delayed my contest entry to the Kiseki contest 31st July, but I suppose I'll have a better chance of winning the next contest I enter. My ArtRage work files for drawings done this way are huge, so I'm not keeping them, just the lineart and the finished piece.
I did fleetingly have an idea last night of drawing finished pieces using pencil, complete with shading, but that is beyond me at the moment, I am rather cautious of chan
