Hello, deviantART land! It has, yet again, been forever since I've written anything. It's not likely that I will update my journal much at all, but I did want to say that I still draw things and post them! But not as much here as to tumblr. I think I've mentioned my tumblr before, but I'm just throwing it out there again for good measure!

I mainly only have the energy for sketches since I've been super busy since I got a job in November as a motion capture artist! Phwoah! I get to stick shiny balls on actors and stunt people in skin-tight clothes and participate in game and film shoots and clean up the captured data afterward! Which is completely not even a career that had ever crossed my mind, but I've been enjoying working at the studio I'm at so far! I'm kind of sad I don't have more time for art, though at the same time I think I've been feeling burnt out for a long time and doing a more technical job is kind of a refreshing break. Now that I have less time, I'm spending my drawing sessions playing with my drawing style more so than just trying to pump out more 10+ hour coloured pieces and I feel like I'm making some nice advances artistically, however small.

I still visit dA to check art and favourite things, but I've been letting notes stack up and comments go unreplied to. I just don't have a lot of time for it and feel kind of disconnected from the dA community anyway since it's been years since I was an active participant. For now I just kind of want to lurk in the shadows, +faving your art without commenting and then scurrying back to my tumblr dash.

So that's some things! I've been meaning to write this journal entry for months, but it took until now for me to gather the motivation to do it!
