Schools Out... I hope

OKAY so now school is over and I have been chillin', well not exactly had one assignment left, which is now finished. lets hope I actually pass the classes. I find out in about a month.

Now that school is over I will start learning to draw from scratch. I am going to focus on life drawing and will be sketching a lot. I won't be posting these unless I feel they are good enough. I am pumped now more than ever. School took away my time to actually sit and draw, which is why I have only submitted about 2 pieces of art for DA. Now that it's over I will solely be focusing on life drawing, buildings and perspective and all that kind of stuff.

wish me luck



Inspiration

DeviantART has a lot of crazy artists and a lot that inspire me to do better. I haven't had time this year to practice at all due to Uni work, but I finish up pretty much this week. With all the work that the artists I'm following have been pumping out lately it has really inspired me to do better and work a lot harder to reach my goal.

Here is a short list of the MUST SEE artists, artists that have inspired me to do better. in no particular order coz they all rock.

I'm sure most people are following them as well, but ehh what ever lol

Thanks for the DevWatch!!

be sure to keep an eye out for more content!

also trying to start up a chat with people that check out the content to see what kinda stuff they would love to see in a vampire story. theres so many popping out of the woodwork these days we definitely want to stay unique. and since this story is 6 years old a lot of what used to make it special has worked its way into some of those other stories.

thanks for your time!
