Hi there Viewers,
I have been full of empty promises when it comes to my artwork, and it is time to change that. I promised post more artwork, to engage in the rich exchange of thoughts and ideas here on dA, and to maintain a level of activity that would at least keep you all informed on what I'm up to. I've hardly done any of these things in over a year, nor have I kept the promise to myself to incorporate art into my daily routine as I had once done in the past.
I haven't done ANY of these things, and all I can say is that I'm sorry. If you are reading this, I really appreciate your loyalty and interest as I
continue struggle to grow as an artist. I've neglected my Muse horribly since started graduate school, but all of the talented artists, friends and viewers I interact with here on dA keep her from leaving me altogether.
So, where do I go from here? I'm not quite sure. I will always continue to create art, but I am still trying to figure out the sort of artist I can be as I continue down this somewhat paradoxical road of mine. I don't think my dA will be all that robust until I figure that out.
The first step is to make a little den for myself on my webspace here. I can't force growth and compromises between me and my Muse, but I can get friendly with all of you artists again, at the very least! I'll figure out the role art plays in my life with time. In the meantime, I'll keep on posting my art and keep my meager commissions open.
Thank you all for having faith in Mistral qua Artist. I look forward to catching up with you and your artwork
