I was asked a little while ago what I have been up to, seeing as I had not posted anything on DA in quite some time.  Well one of the reasons I have not posted any new work, is because I have not produced any.  I almost never draw any more, and I paint even less.  Nothing inspires me. I continue to work with computers, but I have stopped designing as well.  I changed jobs about 4 months ago in an effort to spark some life into my career, only to end up hating where I am now. To top everything off art and career wise, last November I suffered a type B Aortic Dissection, with a Malperfusion of the lower right extremities.  In other words, the

I hope everyone had a good holiday.  Mine was simple, spent with family, and with any luck it will be a another year before we have to figure out where it will all take place again. I do not recommend to anyone that they move the week before the holidays.  I just did it, and let me tell you it has been no fun.  Couple that with getting slammed at work last week, and you have the ingredients for a very hard few days.  I still have tons of boxes to unpack.  More work coming in Monday.  A party in the city tomorrow night.  When will it ever end.  I had thought once I moved, I would be able to find some time to draw, or paint again.  It will be

I have been doing a lot of traveling over the past few weeks, and it has driven home home the realization that I need to move.  I am too far away from the majority of the people I stay in contact with, and I definitely do not have enough room to work where I am right now. (I tend to spread out when I work. :D) That said I did do a little sketch last night for the contest krsityvictoria is running from her stock account.  If you get a chance you should check out her galleries because there is a ton of wonderful material in there. http://kristyvictoria.deviantart.com/

Blessings, brother. I rarely show up here, but occasionally show up to see what my favorites are up to and seek inspiration by their example. Sorry to hear of your recent troubles. I was very sick over the winter and have worked hard to regain my life force and motivation. Canaries in coal mines? No doubt these are hard times for artists ans sensitives. Stay strong!
Hello, sir, this is Michael Sotomayor, Jim's new hire.

Just dropping a line and adding you as a friend. I'll look over your page more thoroughly in the future when I'm not running myself short on time.
Hey Michael-

Thanks for stopping by. I hope all is going well, and that you are keeping Jim in line! Hopefully we can get some time to chat about art the next time I am out there. In the meantime if I ever get off my but and start painting again, I will be sure to post it here, and let you know.

Kenneth
That would be great. I don't update much either right now, on account of working full time now has greatly diminished when I can get stuff like this done.

In any case, I look forward to seeing what else you make in the future!
your gallery is amazing! especially your water color work. I hope you find that inspiration again, it would be a shame if you don't, you are really talented. I also hope you get your motivation back, after what happened to you, I can't imagine how hard it must be. It's an obstacle life put your way and I'm sure you will surpass it!
look at Chuck Close he was paralyzed and he "continued to paint on with a brush strapped onto his wrist with celotape".
I hope you find your inspiration and motivation again!
Love your gallery, amazing watercolor works, and sorry to hear what happened in your journal! I hope you get better and get back your inspiration to paint again....I know this is out of the blue question but, How old are you?
