wow been AGES since I've logged on.... well, maybe thats due to this account being quite immature, and by immature I was pointing at myself. I've started a new account that I'm keeping STRICTLY for everything but my personal problems. you can find it here: :iconkidkiller-killerkid:
I've also uploaded more devoted submissions rather than just whatever I feel like.
Sorry for being a hermit guys!

Just realized that you hadn't actually posted any journal updates since last year (not that I'm one to talk). Just wanted to say that I hope you're doing alright! I quit the art academy too, decided to change my major, and that I didn't want to be a commission artist. I'm going to comm school in a town across the Golden Gate bridge now.
Well anyway, good luck with whatever you ended up doing too!

hey, I'm sorry I didn't reply earlier; I haven't been online in some time.. I was thinking that maybe you should get a facebook? I'd be able to keep in contact with you a lot easier.
I've been thinking about you recently btw! Curious to how life is for you. Why did you change your major? did something happen?

You're in luck, I DO have a facebook now, in fact. Let's see if this link works: [link]

I changed my major because I didn't feel like being a commission artist was what I wanted, and I didn't think my portfolio was good enough for main-stream companies. What I wanted to do in the first place was do graphic novels, but I didn't feel like my classes were focusing enough on the sort of stuff I needed to learn to do such things. I guess I kinda felt like I was selling out, plus the over-abundance of drawing in the past few years made me not like drawing, ironically. I mean, I'll probably still incorporate illustration into my career someday, as of now I'd like to go for an editorial job or something since I'm good at English and so want to major in that instead.
Plus I was just getting real depressed at the school and needed a change, so I live in Marin now and go to a community college, and I have my own apartment which is sooooo much better than dorms. I'm a lot happier, which is the most important, really.
Anyway, see you on facebook. :)

hahahaha funny you should mention getting sick of drawing. I've been going in huge droughts of motivation towards art. I've actually been skating way more and have gotten some sponsorship approaches. I can understand the selling out part; I've been sort of doing that with my animating lately. I just figure hey, if its an easier way to get a grade then what the hell, you know? Kinda sad thats the way it goes, huh?
What got you so down? Was it the city? a lot of people got depressed in sf because of the extreme culture change and sort of bleak atmosphere the surroundings gave off.
and lol at getting your own appartment. I remember how pissed you were at your room mates. =P

Yeah, ironically I was getting the best grades in the fine art classes, which had the work I wasn't as interested in. Did some okay stuff, but I never really felt like I got to add much progress to my personal projects.
Your coloring skills and line quality are awesome, though I'm surprised you stopped using the ballpoint pen, you loved that thing. :) It doesn't seem to me like you've sold out though, the animations you have up are neat-o. I notice your style of faces has changed too, which has a unique look. Seriously, I don't even know why you're in art school, I bet you could just go out and get an illustration job. XD Plus it sounds like you don't like your new school already? Maybe art schools just suck, lol.
I felt down last semester mostly because I lost passion for what I was doing, also I blame my Illustration 1 teacher a lot, because she was literally the WORST teacher I've ever had. You know in the movie "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest", that evil nurse Mrs. Ratchet? I swear she was a clone of her. :o Most of the other students in my class felt the same way. And she was just such a fucking hard grader, it killed any motivation I might have had.
Anyway, so yeah, along with that I just felt like I was living in a bubble, since I never went anywhere and after awhile I got too weak to get out of my dorm much. I'd walk up the stairs and feel light headed just from that. :/ But I'm much better now, because I actually eat more than once a day, heh. And my classes are manageable, even though the lectures can be a bit dry. At least I'm going in the right direction though. :3
