Holy...shit.

I am so stoked to have received a Daily Deviation. I have been active on the forums for about seven years. With a little detective work, I'm sure one could find my old handle, though I wouldn't recommend it. (The art is ungood... is that a word?) In 1996, I was 14 and I received my first computer with internet capabilities. I spent every free moment searching for game artists work, printing out jpgs and trying to copy them. The creation of communities and forums like DeviantART offered me the incredible opportunity to find like-minded artists and interact with them on a daily basis.

One of those impressive artists is alexds1 who I want to thank for suggesting "The Bird and the Beard" for a Daily Deviation. Please check out Alexds's gallery, the work is sick. Also visit Alexds's online comic that can be found at http://www.meekcomic.com/. It's really well done and the characters and storyline are a lot of fun. Thank you Alexds!

I also want to thank Cedarseed, the moderator who chose to feature the deviation. Take a look at her page where you can find some very in depth tutorials that I have found very helpful. She's also hosting a 24 hour comic tomorrow, which I highly recommend if you have never done one. They are fun...and frustrating. Ha!

And finally, thanks to everyone who has stopped by my page to comment on my work. It means so much to hear from other artists who appreciate your work. Thank you for your kind words and encouragement.

I'm feeling motivated!

Let's draw!
