Mon 1st June ---

I've been kinda withdrawn from dA for a while so I figured I'd type a few words for a change.

As you may have noticed, I've been getting into drawing humans and canines and overall experimenting with style. My style is something I've always sort of disliked, it's almost realistic but it's not, and I know I could do a lot better if I just felt like it or wasn't as lazy. It's not a major thing, really, I've just felt stuck within my comfrot zone and I've finally decided to try and do something about it. Equines are what I'm most comfortable with, I've drawn them forever and I always resort back to what I already know, so it has been fun doing something different. If you're worried about never seeing horses in my gallery again, don't worry. I'll get back to them again, just not so heavily at the moment. I won't make a new account for my other stuff simply because I don't want to. Thug life and so on, you get the twist and I hope at least some of you enjoy my other art aside from horses as well.

I'm also sorry for being such a loser when it comes to replying to comments. I really, really love getting comments and I read them multiple times etc, but I don't know what goes wrong inside my brain but typing a response sometimes seems like the biggest thing. And then I'll think like 'oh, I'll reply later' and then it has been like 2 months and it's embarassing and then I just don't. :I Sorry about that. I swear it's not because I look down on people or that I'm a snotty artist, I just suck like that. -Insert dramatic acting of "it's not you, it's me" here-

Aaaanyway. I've been sick pretty much forever and have been struggling to get through my current studies. Now I'm on a summer holiday, have been for a while and next Wednesday (just a couple of days AHHH) I'll be taking an entrance exam in hopes of getting into another university and a different field of study. I really, really, REALLY hope I get in. That would be a complete life changer, from a field that is all gritting my teeth to something I actually want to be doing. I'd be moving away from my current location to about 200 km away or so and starting completely fresh. I'd absolutely love that. I just know, instinctively, that this would probably be one of the best things to ever happen to me if I get to do it, so fingers crossed!

On a different note, if people want to add me on skype you can. Just a couple of things: if you add me, tell me who you are from dA and actually talk to me. I don't accumulate my contact list just for fun and I simply delete people who never talk to me after a while. I'm bad at starting up conversations but I will reply to anything and everything just as long as I'm online. I don't bite. (But please don't add me just to ask about breedings, because that's what notes are for ugh) The green dot is usually very accurate with me, I'm not on if it's offline or away. Sometimes I forget my skype online if I leave in a hurry though :I

Well, anyway, my skype is sateenkaarisitruuna (the one with a horse&rider as image). The other one is mine as well but I don't use it xD

PS. Ugly journal due to not having a subby xD this is like the first time in... I don't know, since I started that I don't have it and it's been an adjustment lol. I've considered doing a commission in exchange for a subby but we'll see. I kinda need money for other things more so I might just have to deal.

It's a bit scary to me that you'd say you're still tinkering with your style - you're one of the people I quote when talking about style ^^ But I guess it just goes to show that even the 'great artists' have moments of uncertainty - which is good as it makes you realise that you're never 'finished', there's always more to learn, no matter how fantastic you are. That in turn puts us all on the same page and (at least for me) gives that sense of community; we're all in this together.

I hope you're feeling better soon and I wish you lots of luck getting into university! A change of pace can be great, especially now that you've found something you can really enjoy. :) :heart:
