Last time I logged into this website, I was 25. A third of my life ago. A lot has changed. For me and for you. I'm going to try to leave all the cringy scrawlings of my youth intact for as long as I can, it's nice to have a record of it even if it's painful to revisit. Though I've been away from DeviantArt, I obviously haven't been away from art in general. Now's the time to run it back. I'm not sure if I'll post here for the sheer meme of it or if I'll post at @novalsi, which is my new profile. We'll see. If this is at the top of my page, I guess go there lol Let's see what sort of fun we can have together as we hurtle even further into the future.

Hello and welcome! I'm glad to announce the progress I've made in the last few months, since we've talked: Firstly, I'm back down to one job.  This may seem normal, or even inconsequential, but it's not, and this is why:  Now, I'm working 5 days a week instead of 7.  This gives me time to work on my art, and it comes as a result of my recent knee surgery, during which I came up with a second talking point: I know I've been talking about a website forever now, and I only have a weak-ass placeholder page up.  But the reason why, is I've used my time off these last to weeks to teach myself Adobe Dreamweaver, and really polish up my Photoshop

The website's running behind, but what isn't? I've been working on securing hosting, but have only recently procured it. I'm putting the finishing touches on the site right now don't expect any bells or whistles, it's just version 1. I promise, to the three of you that may read this, that it will be live by July 2. And it will be ugly. But it will also be replaced. In the meantime, thank you to everyone who does read this, and to everyone who's read my journals past, and kept up with my art, and made comments that helped me grow as an artist, and given me the confidence to go against the grain. You will not be replaced.
