School ate my BRAINS

Sorry for the abrupt artdump, but I didn't even have time to think of submitting anything over the last six months. School had eaten my BRAINS.

Hey there. I feel I should introduce myself. This is Nathan. I was down on New Years to visit Mech and her family, which I guess includes you. Thanks again to your family for having me down. I had a blast.

It's good to hear you're being responsible! ^___^

Your drawings are beautiful! The practice is definitely showing, and I'm sure you'll get involved in either path at the rate you're going!

Wow, it has been awhile! I haven't been going to Gateway for one or two years, although my sister and brothers still do. School and work eat up a lot of my time....

I'll try to keep in touch, too! The sibs are doing pretty well, getting involved in a lot of church stuff, that sort of thing. I've been devoting most of my time to school and work (as previously stated), but I have been trying to put some time into drawing when I have the chance. I'd like to be involved in the making of a graphic novel or really decent webcomic someday, but at the moment I'm just getting the hang of inking and the like. Practice makes perfect and all that, you know what I mean?

my goodness...you got even better!! it's been FOREVER!! over 100 weeks since i had even gotten online i think. i wonder if you go to the new gateway. i've long since deviated from organized religion. ^.^

i'll try to keep in touch this time. how are the siblings? i'm mostly just doing ink work as my way of taking baby steps back into art.

wishing you well,

Hey there! ^_^ It was cool seeing your characters up at the MAG; I had fun trying them on (artistically). *grin* You have some really great artwork here--I hope you don't mind if I stick around.

I was convinced they were trying to tell me something, but their speech was so high-pitched I couldn't hear it. I was trying to turn myself into a dog so I'd have a better chance.

You know how it is with these things.
