Yep, I'm updating. I've got back into dA a bit, which doesn't mean I'm any less busy, I've just been making some more time for art and dA lately. I went to a couple of art workshops over the long weekend, fundraisers for a local bike path. The workshops were great; I brought back two landscapes and some new ideas.

A major overhaul of my gallery is still on the horizon, depending on what I do when I finish school in November. It's not my top priority artwise, but it's close to it. I'm pretty well determined to get it done sometime in the next year. I've always tried to avoid coveting popularity for its own sake, but now that I'm thinking of a career in art, being known around dA looks like a pretty good place to start, as I said in my last journal. I'm waiting until I have enough time to make a gallery I'm proud of and then get involved in the community a lot more. I do have a few active watchers (for whom I'm very grateful) but as for the others, I can't blame them at all as I haven't been very active on their pages myself.

I haven't totally returned to dA, and I'll probably disappear again soon when I head into final exams, but here's a bit of recognition that I certainly haven't given up on this site.
