Well it's only a couple more weeks until the end of the semester, and I must say that with all its hardships and doubts, I feel that I really have changed since the first day of Digipen. I still need work of course as I'm nowhere near a professional level yet, but as long as I continue pushing through, I'll get there.

Yeah....I'm quite possibly the luckest basterd in the world to have made it this far in digipen. Hopefully, my lucky will continue Anyways, gonna start on the 8th so...yeah, no devi for me, so just a heads up

Only 3 more weeks...and then its over...at least for now 0_0

Gahhh! Its already week 5 of my 12 week summer semester. Yeah I know, I probably shouldn't be too worrisome at this stage, but at this point, I have too much riding on this for me to fail any of my classes.

As of late, I've been thinking allot about the kind of artist I want to be. For as long as I can remember, I've gotten through most of childhood and most of my high school career by just copying the art of others. I would always make horrible alterations of characters from comic books and some how find the balls to say that they were "original" when I knew otherwise. When I finally broke out of this habit though, there were always doubts as to whether or not I was really meant to be an artist at Digipen or in any creative community for that matter. Whenever I look at the work of my fellow student and then my own, I always think that I'm good enough some how, like I'm only kidding myself by going through with this.
        However, I refuse to let this doubt hold me back to what I know I was meant to do. After all, for some great artists, it took them years to finally achieve the type of anatomically correct pieces they were famous for. Plus I have to at least cut myself some slack, considering most of the other students are far older then I am, some with almost whole decades ahead of me. In retrospect, I should really feel too bad about it. Anyways, I'm tired of using bandwagons and gimmicks to get where I want and it's high time I start paving my own chapter into the creative community. I'll be using this sight to show some of my animations and original works, but as of now, I refuse to post any fan art.
