Metallica - "The More I See"

Holy CRAP. Sheezy's back. And working PROPERLY. Should I set my timer for my best guess as to when something goes wrong again, or dare I hope that this is a permanent repair?

Well, if anything useful came out of all the maddening downtime, it's the fact that it prompted me to finally get off my lazy arse and start working on revamping my dusty old website. I'm moving to a new host and adding some features and doing my best to work out the HTML on my own, which is slowly liquifying my brain, but will look nice when it's done. The link will be posted here at that time.

I've decided to make my separate galleries distinct from one another so that you don't end up seeing the same stuff in each one. Eventually my website will host my more professional works, like commissions and other pieces I put a lot of effort into. I'll keep my SA gallery for fun things like sketches and gift pics and other miscellany. And all my Matihao Whenua art, which had been formerly posted at the clan's SA gallery, has now been removed and can only be found at the official Matihao Whenua website, designed by the wonderful Kate N.Y.



I think that's all the news for now. Thanks for sticking around!

THE REN ESSENTIALS

For the love o' criminy! PLEASE READ MY F.A.Q. BEFORE CONTACTING ME OR COLORING MY ARTWORK. I will no longer be answering e-mails or notes that refer to questions already listed there.

My website, yo! Info about prints, originals, commissions, and trades can be found here.

Please, don't ask to color my work. If I want something colored, I will go looking for someone to do it, or I would do it myself. This is in my FAQ, but I get asked often enough that it bears repeating.

I don't comment or interact much because A) I am shy, B) I don't have enough time, and C) commenting out of obligation is no fun and makes being online feel like a chore. But rest assured I love ya just the same.

I do not critique, and I am not here to be critiqued. There are plenty of folks here who appreciate having their art dissected, but I'm not one of them. By no means do I consider my art perfect, but I don't feel there is any right or wrong way to draw and I resent it when someone suggests something about my work looks "wrong" because it doesn't suit their personal tastes. I don't feel I have any authority to tell someone else how to express themselves artistically, so I don't critique, even when asked. Please respect me enough to extend me the same consideration.

CURRENT BUSINESS STATS

COMMISSIONS -- Closed again while I work on the following:
1) Misc. commissions for Angela. In progress.

WISHLIST TRADES -- Closed at the moment until I finish my commission work. I will likely be opening for wishlist trades again in the near future.

ART TRADES -- Closed until further notice. If I'm interested at all, I will ask you.

That about sums it up for now. Thanks a bunch for the +watches and support!
