Hi guys. I want to let everyone know that I'm feeling better from last night and just needed to vent my anger. Thanks to everyone who responded. You guys are the best.

So to move away from yesterday's journal and focus on a more "happy" topic, I want to tell everyone just why it is that I care about my art so much. Some of my friends on DA (well it's really one friend since I had a falling out with the other one) complained to me earlier in the year, saying how I was so obsessed with my art. Well I realize that I am. For those of you who I would talk to on MSN, you know that I would send links to my art and bring it up if we had nothing else to talk about.

Well anyway, the reason why I love my art so much is very simple: I love it because it's a part of me. My characters help me through very suck ass days. When I'm angry or sad, I look at one of my pics and I feel a whole lot better. These characters make me feel better about myself and give me a reason to always try and achieve my dream of writing stories and comics. To me, Kenta, Sasuke, Titus (the fox boy), Zobias and any future characters I may post on my DA are like my children. I love each and every one of them and yes, I do feel the need to brag about them at times. There's nothing wrong with braging about something you created. Why do children brag about something they drew or made for their parents? Because they're proud of what they themselves made. I'm proud of my art and I'm proud of how it's evolved. I'm proud of the evolution of my characters and I'm proud of how both my anatomy and proportion went from being terrible to actually pretty decent. I realize not everyone enjoys it. But there are those that do. And I hope that those that do enjoy it will be around for future pics I may do

Now you know why I care so much for my art. Remember, don't be afraid to show others what you have created. If you poured your heart and soul into it, why shouldn't you show it off?
