Why is it so hard to get back into art.
I want to come back. I miss the interaction with other artist.
But been lacking so much motivation.
Any advice to get motivation back?

The New Year started very early for me.

Toward end of Decemeber I was able to officially move out on my own. And let me just add. It may be quiet but it is nice going from a one bedroom; living at my dads to a two bedroom house/apartment that is all mine. My second room is my official art room and I hope once I get everything unpacked and put where everything should go; cause I am still unpacking even being here for almost 20 days. I hope to hop back into art, get back to creating new worlds and meeting / connecting with others; definitely since I just got internet. Got an actual desk to work at and another work table for my messy art. I hope to post pictures of my art room once its all together. 

Wish me luck!

I'm sorry

2 min read

I am sorry for disappearing. I know I will have people saying not to apologize.


But a lot happened end of August and beginning of September. And I should explain.

It still kills me and having trouble coping and I am trying to concentrate on other work and projects.


My dog Toby of 15 years has had breathing issues for the past two years due to a collapse trachea and on September 1st. I sadly had to make the tough decision to put my best friend down when he had a hard night and had to be rushed to the Emergency Clinic. He was put on oxygen and he still was having trouble. So I had to make that decision and I am just now finding myself getting back on my feet.

I don't want to go deep with this journal cause I'm still coping. I'm taking one day at a time.

I hope to get back. I will be moving soon as soon as the apartment people get into contact with me. So as soon as I get settled into my future place, I hope to come back and get working on my projects I still have yet to publish.


I'll try and keep you posted.

Hello, GothicBlueEyes here!

Back at it with another Object Original Character Contest! OOCC for short. I held this contest a few years ago and it was a lot of fun. So I thought about holding it once more. So the objective of the contest is to design your own Original Character but here is the catch; the character must be designed by a random object. There are endless possibilities; a character based off of a toaster, a picnic table, Christmas lights; anything you can think of. Below I am going to feature some pieces that participated in the previous contest; give you an idea of some sort.

 

OOCC: Pinata and Punch

Created by ITBluebeadTI - She was the first place winner to the previous first contest. She created the character Piñata. To this day this character brings a smile to my face; both adorable, innovated and creative. Such a brilliant use of all those bright colors and I've noted that she has drawn her more then once after the contest which I adore seeing. I could be wrong but she is the only one I've seen that has drawn their character they created for this contest more then once afterwards; which shows she truly does adore her creation.

Here are a few others that had entered; there were more, but since it has been years and I did end my group the pictures where sent to, these were the only ones I remembered off the top of my head or could find; I believe some had deleted their previous work. Sorry if you did enter previously and they aren't featured. Entries were all done in Puff style because the contest was a Puff Style Driven Contest;

Unlike this one will be any style and all styles welcomed. :la:

  

OOCC: Pinata and Punch , CE/PPG TelePhone , Scrady
