has been my personal little brainchild for some time now, and I've finally gotten around to making it via DA's group function with the help of . Ultimately, I want it to be a place where people can get a little more exposure than normal D.A, and a place where artists can focus on developing their sundry talents effectively. I'm personally going to try and keep things pretty active by coming up with different art challenges (either weekly or monthly), but it would be nice to have some more members. If you want some more exposure, personalized critiques, something random to do, or the opportunity to help others develop in a smaller, more focused way, please consider coming on over. It's easy to get lost in the grey matter of DeviantArt nowadays; I just want a community that's a little more approachable.

As for the personal life, it's hard to find time to do anything nowadays. Between working over 30 hours a week and taking some really work intensive classes I haven't done as much artstuff as I would prefer. That being said, I AM working on a comic project at the moment, and hopefully I'll be able to show you all what I've been working on soon! It's pretty cool, methinks, but also still really rough around the edges, and since it's a collaboration of sorts with I don't want to go into too much detail without him throwing in an OK.

Hope everyone is doing well.
