Many deviants around here seem to think that if they have seen a type of work before then that means it's not original. So by that reasoning, if someone comes up with the weirdest thing in the world, than that makes him original and therefore better than the one that drew something that has been done before.
I'd like you to consider this for a while. Humanity has been around for thousands of years, almost anything an artist might think of drawing, has been drawn before. If an artist draws a portrait of a girl, that is so "unoriginal" you can literally find hundreds of thousands of such drawings.
Then should an artist stay away from drawing

A lot people either understand what I'm saying or were willing to give it a chance, but I wanted to take MamaLantiis (https://www.deviantart.com/mamalantiis)' and post another journal kind of clearing things up (I'm really glad I calmed down and was able to realize that it was a good idea, btw). I've got 5 major things I want to address, so here we go!

Today was my last day at my full time job. I am now embarking on a new journey! :la: I don't know for how long I will be able to "be an artist" but since it's always been a dream of mine, I am pretty excited about it! And it seems I have a lot to do! I guess now I just have to see how it goes.
Starting tomorrow I am going to be making art full time. I have updated my LiveStream journal to reflect my new schedule which will be every Monday through Friday from 11AM-7PM Eastern. I'll likely be working on things outside of that time frame, but I'm going to stream at least those hours every day as a way to make myself accountable.
As noted on
I just wanted to make a quick post to let people know that ~GloryAngel (https://www.deviantart.com/gloryangel) is back on DA! With some help from her mom with the set up, she was able to log onto her account on her BIRTHDAY for the first time since her accident. She had over 2,700 messages! :wow: She was also able to make a short journal post.
If you aren't familiar with Sara's story, you can fill in the story with the news articles from 2008 and 2009. All the info about contributing to her family in those news articles is still accurate should you desire to help out. :thanks:
Sara's mom let me know that she's been able to vocalize a bit more lately. She can laugh and make s
