Anxiousness..

2 min read
Hi it's been a while. Sorry I'm not active really at all :(.

I'm quite nervous to be posting on here.
I don't think I'll be breaking out some new art for a while. I don't really have the same drive for it as I used to. I'm attributing it to:

1. Not having practiced enough and feeling anxious about the quality of art that I'll be able to put out
2. Not being able to practice because my boyfriend doesn't know I do any of this and he wants to spend time together and I want to do my own thing but he doesn't know what my own thing is..

It may seem kind of strange, but I don't make it public that I draw in a style that resembles most all of the art in my deviantART gallery. That is, no one irl knows that I still draw this anime stuff. That is, I think I'm embarrassed to admit that I do. That is, I am ashamed that this anime stuff is all I can do.

I've been recently thinking about telling people(person) about this gallery. About the 500-600 pictures I've drawin since 2004. It's been on my mind for a few months now actually. I got a boyfriend (a year ago)... and I think maybe I should be telling him this kind of thing? Or maybe I should just push this chapter of my life aside and well, let it die. I mean it's something that can be grown out of.. and he doesn't have to know?

I don't know D:. It's kind of a strange thing to be so worried about. I've been having stress dreams about it D:.

I think what I'm trying to ask here to you folks is... should I tell him about this? Or should I just let it fade away, because its not like not telling him is doing any harm?

Ah!

edit: additionally, i'm curious as to how... i dunno, socially acceptable it is to like anime in the environments you're in? From my position, it seems that anime stuff is almost.. mocked by most people.. which also contributes to this shame i feel i guess.

Hey guys

Hi watchers, stopper-by-ers :).
Hope you're all enjoying your winter breaks and the holidays! I go back on January 4th... ewwwww...

I'm sorry for my lack of activity, and lack of responsiveness and all. It was a hectic semester and whoever said that 2nd year university was easier than first was lying lol. It was the 1st time I took a full course-load and it was really a step up from the previous semesters ><;... I basically ate and breathed biology and chemistry and formal reports :P.

Anyways, I'm sorry that my activity in the future will be little, if at all on dA... It's alot easier to just do a simple oekaki doodle and leave it at that if I'm stressed out, as opposed to posting it on dA after fine-tuning the pictures, because I kind of have a standard of what I'd like to put on my dA page, and right now I won't really have the time to devote to that :(.

So, to my commissioners: I will be refunding you, because I can't do the same quality of work that I could in the start of the summer and it would be cruel and unfair to you for me to draw the pictures you wanted with the diminished skills I now possess (I haven't practiced drawing since then D:...)

Till next time,

Silver

I so smrt.

And here I was thinking that going to school would make me smarter haha..
Well, I decided to whip out my tablet today to drawing something (try out paint tool sai) or just like test the colour differences between a laptop and pc. Pulled out my tablet and noticed two cracks on it, then started to wonder when they got there... then I don't even know WHAT I was thinking...

Image Description

(I'm not like totally sleep deprived, it's just I think I need to get 7 hours to be truly functional... and I've only been getting 4-5 this week :P.. which makes me a very pissy person..... eek)

I just went ahead and pulled the pen body off and that's what happened HAHA.

I'm such a dumbass sometimes.

I managed to get the pen body back on, but now the cracks are like crevices up my pen lol.

....

So.
Duct tape, scotch tape, masking tape, glue gun or sticky blue wall tack stuff to seal the crevices?
