I am still alive!

Hello! I am still kicking, and making art.
It's definitely not as intense as it was when I was in school.
Having a job now kinda impairs a lot of my creativity.
I try my best to set aside time to do shit.
Here's what I did last week.

I'm working on some t's right now.
One that has to do with Awesomenauts, this Samus idea, a Cha-Cha and Kayamba design, and a Peco design.
Only roughs right now. I'll get them up here soon so you can see my progress.

I'm working on some Pokemon drawings as well.
Christmas presents, maybe? I dunno.

So as far as my life goes it's been pretty busy and eventful after college. I miss college every day. I loved the environment and how inspiring it was to be challenged on a daily basis to be better and to just be something.
In real life it's just not as cool.
Regardless I got a cool job doing one of the things I love the most, dealing with video games and electronics.
I also stream still, almost on a daily basis. I love the shit out of that. I'm currently working on my list of video games. I'll be putting together this list of playable games in my possession and then on stream we'll tear through them. I kinda like this idea of killing my game library. There's some titles I have that I've never even played. It'll be a fun take on getting that shit conquered.

Last official day of college...

Well. I'm in the last day of college and I'm still working on stuff. I hope that kinda shows how I am. I just work until the last minute. But I think that is what animation amounts to.
Every second counts.
I guess I will write more and reflect on it more in detail later.
I am finishing up a lot of things which will be posted soon.

More, more more more more more more -

Hello, welcome back.
I've been kinda locked up and staying up late working on this animated piece that, as I presented it today, has a deep emotional impact on people.
Crazy.
I'm glad that what I'm working on is successful for once.
I've been working on getting my flatbook done, a demo reel going as well as possibly a showcase? Not sure / sold on one of those yet.
I updated my online portfolio with artwork and captioned it with what it is etc etc.
Did a little bio and about me, got in depth as to who I am and what is most influential to me right now.
I am done with school on Tuesday next week. It's a weird feeling.

News

Hey there!
Let me update you guys on what's up with me.
After a lot of critique over the work I've been doing I found that a focus of mine should be more on the animation side of things. Since I've been interested in doing short animations I decided to do a piece that means a lot to me based off of a short story I wrote for creative writing.
The design work I have done seems disconnected because the two lines of work don't make sense to the instructor.
But in the online realm they are hand in hand. These animators are making t's with their cartoon designs and using sites like sharkrobot.com to sell them.
I'm not too far off the mark with my plan and who I want to be in the realm of animation.
So I'm going to focus on this little cartoon bit here until the end of the term.
I will highlight my design work somehow.
Gotta do this little thing and then figure out my demo reel.
Trying to find a place to work right now.
It's not going too well because of school. I'm pretty stressed out, trying to get shit sorted out so I can move out.
