As you may have noticed, I've been uploading some new images to my gallery of slasher movie characters done in a painting style, which I achieved using a bunch of photoshop filters. I'm quite impressed with the results as I don't have any actual painting skills. I'm curious to know if you guys like them and would like to see me continue along with this style of deviation, and whether you think I should offer any of them as prints.

Also, if you have any photos or images you'd like turned into a painting, drop me a note and I'll see what I can do.

So, once again, now that I have some new content to add, I'm a little more active here on the site. Unfortunately, I've been having some problems with my gallery displaying correctly, so I've sent in a help request to the powers that be to see how I can get that resolved, short of removing all the older deviations and reuploading them.

My latest project is doing some graphic design work for a new MMO game project entitled 'Dark Awakening.' I've completed the logo, and will be doing some other graphic design for the game, as well as graphics for the upcoming game website. I'll post links and stuff as things come online. That's about all there is to report at the moment, but I will be sure to keep everyone updated. And hopefully I'll be having some more work coming along in the next little while. My muse has recently been given a lot of fuel due to certain circumstances, so there's definitely things that need to get out of my brain.

Wow, it really seems to be about once a year when I actually update something on here. Fortunately, I've been reinspired and now have several projects underway, so for once I should be able to deliver on the promise of having more activity.

Well, once again it's time for my yearly journal post here on DA. I wish I had more time to devote to my artwork and stuff, but work has been keeping me exceedingly busy, especially of late. I'm in the middle of working on a giant website which is targeting the wedding market in the UK. Be sure I will be posting a link to it on here when it's live on 09/05/06, as well as putting a link to it in my clients section of my website. Once I've got some time to breather, I am planning on renewing my pursuits of the artistic ideas that are floating around in my head. Hopefully, there's still some of you out there who pay attention to this and will notice. :-P Until later...

Well, it's been just over a year yet again, so it's about time I post my usual message saying that I hope to get some more stuff done this year. I've started it off with a new piece called Etherium Dominae that was made with one of lockstock's amazing stock pieced from her fetish pack. How can one NOT get inspired by her? Anywho, I have some more ideas for pieces that I will be working on over the next while, so this time I will honestly cause some renewed activity on this site.

Well, i'm not really sure how many people actually have me added to their devwatch, so I don't know how many people will actually read this, but it's been quite awhile since I've really worked on anything. Over the next few days I'm going to try to crank some stuff out. I feel all bottled up, and that's never a good thing where I'm concerned.

Anywhoo, it's almost 2am now, and I have a meeting in the morning, so I should probably get to bed. TTYL.

This journal goes out to all groups to which I am a member. When DA switched over to v3 I lost my signature, and when I went to make a new one, I realised I couldn't remember the DA account names of all the groups I've joined. Please, if I'm listed as a member of your group, send me a note so I can re-add you to my signature and lessen my feeling of soft-headedness for not keeping better track of my online affairs. Thanks.

Many thanks to for designing my new avatar. I really liked all the different designs he came up with, I chose the current one as the best of the lot. Mick-Mick, you truly are the avatar god!!!

Some may have noticed that I have been gravitating more towards 3d art lately, and that's because I'm learning 3d studio in college right now, and i'm trying to hone my skills, as 3d has always been something I couldn't wrap my brain around on my own. But, now I'm trying to migrate back to my photo manip skillz because I don't want them to get rusty. I'm also thinking of ways to explore the merging of 3d and photo manip stuff to do some really ouytrageous stuff, so we'll see how that develops.

Greets to fellow winnipeggers!

Thanks to the following people for adding me to their devwatch.

On behalf of my friend who is a brand new member to our community, i'd like to officially welcome cycothree to DA. Please check out his stuff and post comments. Lots of comments. He loves comments.

Well, I'm glad to see more and more people are starting to notice my stuff. My most recent piece recieved over 50 viewings within 5 minutes, so i'm quite proud, and people seem to find it very disturbing which is even better. Anyway, just wanted to say thanks to everyone for supporting my endeavours! :journalmood:

Sometimes, I just float around the site and take a look at some of the stuff that other artists submit, and some of it I find so amazing, that I desparately want to know how they achieved certain effects so I can further my knowledge of applications like photoshop and become a better artist so that people will look at my stuff and say, "Wow, how did you do that?". One of my goals on this site is to get one of my pieces added to the daily favorites list... and also, I'd like my pieces to start getting the hundreds of comments from viewers like some pieces by other artists do. I'm still fairly new at DA though, so it'll take awhile. I just hope poeple have enjoyed what they've seen so far and that they be sure that things are just going to get better from there...

Hey, I just noticed this is my first journal entry as well... how about that? Well, back to work. :journalmood:
