Long Time Gone
Hey, wow… it’s um… been a while. The summer sort of got away from me and with that so did my drawing time. Sometimes life and family must to take precedence to drawing porns. It usually happens in the summer time so I shouldn’t be too surprised. That’s when there are lots more visits and gatherings both at my house and at others. this summer was especially busy to say the least. Biggest event (which took up most of the summer) was moving the in-laws to a condo from a house. That means you have to go through 30+ years of stuff you’ve acquired and decide what you want to take with you and what you can do with out. It’s not a fun job, but it’s easier when there is family there to help you out.
There is one thing that pertains to art that has slowed me down though. Over the past while I’ve applied to be apart of art collections, shirt designs and other artistic endeavors. It’s something that I very much would love to do. Seeing my art in proper print format would be fantastic! Sadly, I’ve yet to be accepted and it’s bumming me out. I watch other artists that I follow get involved with these projects with ease and go on to create great works. Plus they get the chance to be involved with some excellent talent. It’s very much something I’d like to do, but it just hasn’t happened yet. Either with my naughty arts or my proper safe for work art. For some reason, this is a sticking point for me. A hurdle that I just can’t get past. I’m trying not to let it get me down too much. It was suggested by a close friend to draw some of my old characters and just have fun with it. He even passed me an idea. I’ve taken it as far as the rough version and I’ve put it up to share, because I like it when artists share rough work and it’s something I don’t do enough of.
That’s pretty much it for now. Sorry to have been away for so long and thanks for being patient. Oh, I forgot another reason that art time has gotten shorter. I bought Dr. Luigi for the Wii U and my wife has turned in to fanatic! We’ve had so many Dr. Luigi/Mario 2 player battles it’s crazy. My wife doesn’t play games so I welcome any time she wants to partake in my hobby. Who can say no when the wife wants to play Dr. with them. ^_^

Really glad to see a post from you again. I’m sure all of your followers were starting to worry. Hang in there I’m sure proper recognition is coming your way soon

Glad to see you again! ^^
Did you try just to draw something good enough for a print and show it to those of your friends who already have a foot in the door? Maybe they could give the gig guys a hint… >:-D

Okay, by friends I mean other artists that I follow. Truth be told, I have very few artist buds. I think I’m too old to hang with this new hip crowd of artists.

I do have a few Eleanor pics that I’ve yet to put up. I guess I should get on that.

What do I need to do To do to view the chipettes gallery.
September 22nd, 2014 at 8:25 pm

I feel like your problem with recognition is that relatively, you aren’t very prolific. You’re art is amazing and you are one of my favorites, but you don’t have a lot of volume.
Look at Megasweet who has a similar cute and sexy style. While you’ve been around since 2006-7 and have around 150 pieces. They have been around since 2010, and have around 1500 pieces.
If nothing else it’s about repetition. TV shows are scheduled for the same night each week for a reason. If people didn’t know when, or even if a new episode is coming, the majority would lose interest.
People are Fickle.
