Wow, I've really neglected my account here. I've been extremely busy with my various publishers and clients and haven't really had much time for the fun stuff here. I'm still busy actually, but taking a breather.
I'll try to rectify neglecting this page and get some new art uploaded soon. In the meantime, I've added a new section to my da page called "Freelancer". In this section I'll post links to
various sites which have helped me along during my career, sites I enjoy or frequent, or sites which freelance artist or photographers may find of use. I'll try to update
this section at least bi-monthly.


In other news
I have 3 sets of series going at the moment in addition to my regular commission work and my private project work on my Sorche fantasy novel (call me a glutton for punishment :P )
My Phoenix series, Collaborators series, and the Silver Screen Legends series. You can find out more about the series pieces at the following link: [link]

I'm excited about the artwork I've done for my clients Wahoo Studios for their MMORTS game "SAGA" and may post a few pieces here at a later date. If you're a gamer you should check the game out at:

www.playsaga.com



Deviant Artists - To those of you who have visited my page, watched me, and/or faved my pieces, I want to sincerely thank you all. I may not always have time to individually respond to your wonderful words of encouragement and/or requests, but I do read them all and I do attempt to answer them.

But if I donot, please know that you all are important and that I do enjoy reading your input and thoughts. And I thank you all for taking the time to view my works. Thank you, DA.




Resources and links for the serious artist

Featured Site




Get Paid To Draw is an invaluable site for the beginning and intermediate professional artist or photographer alike.
I became affiliated with them after a friend suggested that I check them out and I have nothing, but praise for the great
job and wealth of information they provide for the work at home artists. Would you like to:

+ Make money every time your art is downloaded?
+ Get paid from multiple streams of daily income?
+ Recieve huge notoriety as an artist?
+ Keep your copyrights?
+ Have fun while making your money as an artist?
+ Use your cellphone or camera as an profit tool?
+ Quit your job and make your own hours?
+ Get paid residual income from every photo you submit?
+ Buy a nice home and car and retire early?

If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, then why are you still reading? You should get your rear on over to
their site, check out the info, and put what they know to work for you. The banner above is my referral link which will take you to the site and let them know that I personally sent you. So click it. Go on! Get! :P

:bulletred:update
I've received quite enough notes regarding info about the site that I felt an faq section is warranted.

Q: What is the benefit of joining this site?
A: If you're a beginning artist or photographer with limited or no marketable art skills you will be guided on how to improve your skills via lessons.

If you are a intermediate artist or photographer with basic skills, but little or no marketing knowledge, you will be given the where and how on which path to market your talent.

If you are a professional artist or photographer, the site is useful in helping you find leads to freelance work or employment with companies.

Q: It cost $34.95 to get this program. You've joined this site, is it worth it? I mean, does the site really deliver?
A: I wouldn't be affiliated with them if it didn't. I use it in addition to doing my regular freelance work and find that it is well worth (many times over I might add) the $34.95 investment.

If you're serious about marketing your art or photography skills, working from home, or making damn good money in general, then it's a no brainer that you need to at least look into this opportunity.

Q: What all does the site offer?
A: It's best to just click the banner link and find out yourself, but I joined because I wanted to find out how I could get paid everytime someone downloaded my art for use. There are alot of ways to do that and many places as well. The site touches on a few different fields, markets, and avenues of marketing yourself and/or your art. Best just to see which one works best for you.

Q: Is this site just for Americans? Who can join?
A: Anyone can use this program. It doesn't matter where you live. Everything is explained in english, however. So obviously, you must know how to read and understand english.

Q: So I have to pay to join this site?
A: This is actually an instructional course which helps the artist and that is what you are paying for. The $34.95 has a 56 day money back guarantee, by the way. Can't beat that.




This portion will feature deviants whose talent or style I feel are noteworthy. These deviants are artists or photographers. Definitely worth a visit!

Ladies! Will you please shut it? Listen to me. Yes, I lied to you. No, I don't love you. Yes, of course it makes you look fat. I've never been to Brussels. It is pronounced "egregious". By the way, no, I've never met Pizzaro, but I love his pies.

I love your gallery! ^^

It's amazing :clap:

P.S. I happened to notice a comment written on here by !amyperticone . DO NOT, I repeat - DO NOT visit the link that they sent you. That person wrote the exact same thing on my profile (I hid it, though) and it is a SCAM. So just for a warning, don't submit any poetry that you may have onto the site they linked you. I don't want anyone with as much talent as you getting scammed.

Best of luck with your work, and keep up the brilliant gallery! :)

Excellent color work, and great job on faces. =)

We don't love "because", but "despite".

This is why there is no such thing as perfect. A flawless beauty would be blank without any appeal nor character. Its scars are what defines it and what inspires emotion... from that moment, it becomes art.
