As everyone who watches me has probably noticed, I've been really lacking being around here. Sorry. I've been so busy doing other things I really haven't put much effort into my art. So some might be wondering, what have I been doing? Well, working my day job mostly, but I've been dabbling in digital painting when I get the chance and also traditional painting. I've also gotten into glass etching. But the one big thing I've done with my life, that has been a recent development, is become an author. After working on my book series for 5 years, the first book is finally up for purchase. This book contains characters I was starting to share in my drawing so letting you guys know about it was a bit subtle but in the making.
For those interested in checking it out here's a bit about it. The series is called Experimental Heart and the first book is Experimental Heart: Pieces. The series is a science fantasy set in a near future world still trying to hold onto old customs and beliefs in gods that is on the brink of war. It's set in the point of view of a human war experiment fugitive named Eira who, after facing death, is saved by an unlikely rescuer, a dragon shapeshifter. The two team up, along with her fellow comrades, to fight against the tyrannical rule that created her and is the major threat in the impending war.
Experimental Heart: Pieces is currently out on Nook and Kindle. Kobo is working on publishing this in e-book format as well. I am still debating on Google play's book store and Apple's iBook store for various reason so as of right now they do not sell my book. A hardcover version is planned to be available but right now I do not have an estimated time when that will happen.
If you're interested in purchasing or even checking out the first book check the links below. I will also be posting my facebook author page for those who would like to keep tabs on any updates or possible book meets I might attend in the future. Once the website I have is up and running I'll share that as well but it's a bit of a mess right now.

I'm here and then...
I can't seem to keep life from interfering. I finally come back and it takes me away. We'll see what happens now. I've had more time to draw so I've been doing that on the weekends. My main focus though, when I'm not at work, is my novel. I started this thing back in 2009 as a spin-off of a school assignment because I couldn't let the characters go after the assignment was over. Then it escalated from there. I've submitted a few concepts on here of some of the characters in the book series I've been working on, but most are old at this point I guess XD. The first book is finally nearing an end and a start to publication. It's just going throu

Well it's been some time since I've shown my face around here. Sorry about that guys. Most of you have probably forgotten I exist but I'd expect that. I've been just so busy between graduating college, working full time, finding a place to live, and working on getting a book published, I haven't had much time for this place. Plus the constant threat of art theft is always something that is on my mind when I'm here. But I've decided to give this place a try again.
I'm working on some things that I'm planning to post. Most of it isn't recent (within the last 4 months) because I haven't had time to dra
Holy life! *new*

Well hi everyone! Long time so see? :XD: Well I'm here and I'm not here. I haven't forgotten about this place, I've just... grown apart from it. The community here isn't the same from when I first joined 4 or so years ago (when I had my old account I abandoned) and I don't feel my work is protected like it should be. I did upload a drawing but if I feel that my work isn't going to be protect any time soon I'll probably take it down and leave. Sorry to those who actually are still around to see my work. It's just hard to keep your rights to things you create these days and although I love showing peop

Hey guys!
I'm here and there and no really around DA due to the Vaca. and school starting back up. I'm planning on being here more but looking at what is in store for me in school it doesn't look all that likely. I have a few pictures I'm working on but they're at a stop because I haven't put my programs on my new computer yet (yes I fail :XD:) so I'll get around to working on those when I can. I'm also working on some previous images I've submitted and editing them so they look better (only one or two images so I won't be flooding you all with updates).
No one asked for a holiday commission so I w
