Greetings to the collective out there! So far for me 2015 has been fairly decent, small hiccups and that surgery notwithstanding. First off, thank you for the overwhelmingly constructive feedback regarding that last journal about my convention project and species! For those curious about the outcome, I'm about 90% certain that nameless Big Brother suit is going to be represented by a vulture. I'm excited to get thumbnails made up for these two convention pieces, and I'm hoping you guys end up liking the final results!

That brings me to my second point. I also have a fairly major commission I'm getting involved in that I'm quite enjoying working on and I'd like to keep productivity high in both the convention art and the commissioned piece. I am also well aware that I'm still involved in several trades, which I still fully intend to work on, but for those that I'm trading with I hope you all understand that even though I will be working on them between other obligations, going will be steady but definitely slower.

So to make sure I have enough time to keep things moving forward with my art, I must cut out time being on the Internet and interacting on my sites somewhat. I will still be checking in every day, and I'm not actually closed for commissions, I'm simply limiting myself to necessary correspondence, email checking/replying and uploading. If you have anything pressing, such as if I'm trading with you or you have a commission inquiry, I will still respond back promptly! It's just...less social interaction for me right now.

I hope you all understand! I'm not giving anyone the cold shoulder or ignoring anything, this is just how I need to manage my time to make sure art still gets done. Thank you all very much for your patience; I appreciate it immensely.
