Hi everyone! I've been very busy lately and wanted to let everyone who cares know that I am preparing for a art summer program scholarship, and its taking up my time. Its GSA and if I do well in it, I can get scholarships and a free ride to every school in Kentucky. So it is very important I do well so I can get in. I won't be on a lot for a while. My interview is on March 24th, and I need 9 complete portfolio items.

Wish me luck.

Oh dA! Sigh

5 min read


I'm very happy about my slow progression into photography. I'm starting to find it much more soothing than other art forms, mainly because the beauty is already there and there isn't much else to do except click a button.

love-new-artists Is my new group its for supporting younger or new artists with all mediums. Please join, and if anyone is looking for a contributor job to help get more advertisement hit me with a note.

JamminJo is as always awesome when it comes to supporting new artists such as myself, and I would like to wish you a Happy Holidays as well.

Lately I've been hearing people complaining about the direction that this site is turning. I have several friends who are leaving dA all together. Sex is selling, and really bad art are getting awards. All I have to say in the matter is that I'm not sure how this is been going on without our leaders knowing, but everyone who cares for good art should promote good quality art for DDs instead of basic sketches. I'm not saying lets not support the youngins' like myself, but none of my pictures deserve that status and yet people with lower skill seem to be getting DDs. Just look at any day, and you would be hard pressed to find real quality art. In conclusion, support us young folk with criticism and award the real true professionals for breaking boundaries in the art world, instead of voting for your friends to get a DD.

Black Friday

6 min read


Hi everyone!
:bulletpink:First off I want to say thank you to JamminJo for the Premium  Membership. I'm having a lot of fun just messing around with it,
:bulletred:Second, I want to say that before I go through with making this group I'm looking for a contributor or two to help me with initial set-up. I have a name (hopefully its not taken but something like love-new-artists).  I want it to help out younger and newer artists with tutorials and critiques.  I want the gallery folders to be set up from novice to expert. For example, Novice New Media, Novice Traditional, and Novice Sketches.  I have some other ideas, and if you have any other ideas feel free to chat me.
:bulletgreen:Third, I'm going out for Black Friday.  I was going to hit Target, but we are going to Walmart at 10. I'm about to cut some people.
AND I DID. Some women next to our car at Target (we got sucked into going there) passed out and died, like 5 feet from our car. It was crazy.

This is a semi quick journal with no features, but I wanted some advice.

I am going to start a support group for new artists and just artists in general, and was wondering from anyone else if this is a good idea. I'm on the cite now for at least an hour a day. I have done some voting stuff for :iconiphotograph:, and I am interested in running my own group. Any advice. And :llama:'s for anyone who comments.
