I haven't really been active recently, or more accuretly, for a long time.
And also, my last journal entry was atleast year and a half old, and the colorful rainbow skin had caused me many many head aches (seemed to work ok at keeping people away from my front page)
so I changed it.
Life fares ok I guess, the new skin and journal entry are barely the only changes that have happened, I have officially and permanently moved to Åbo, finally to live together with my darling, whose going to soon leave me for two months because of this stupid university thing (shes going to America) And I'll be all alone here in this big cold flat (I'm not kidding it's freezing here) with our crazy cats and inadequate friends.
I'm trying to get my studies somewhere, but we have a lot going on right now (finding jobs and trying to get our sh*t together)
so my actual studies of graphic desing are on halt, who knows if I'm ever gonna finish them, and I'm doing senior high school studies in evening classes.
As for what kind of stuff I'm going to be doing and submitting here, hopefully more polished and carefully thought than before, I'm really trying to better myself as an artist after having had a painful and bleak winter withouth any inspiration.
I got myself a wacom bamboo pen, it's not the best piece of equipment but it'll suffice, besides I don't have a software better than gimp so I will not be needing anything fancier (my old poor computer will no longer be handling any hardcore software so thats that).
I wont be submiting any handrendered things, unless someone points a gun to my head.
You see, I've been strugling with my inability to see and imagine colour properly for ages and I've just started to realise that the solution to my problem is digital art.
So I don't have to worry about having to redo the whole thing after messing up the colours or loving some of the work but hating one part that ruins the entire picture.
And yes, it feels like DA is dead, at least when I'm in it, and so that this doesn't continue as a senseless monologue, I would really enjoy trying to make it a conversation instead. So please, feel free to comment, share you opinions and ideas, and I will do the same.
sincerely
