It's just another day, nothing in my way
I don't wanna go, I don't wanna stay
So there's nothing left to say?
And why'd you lie
When you wanna die, when you hurt inside
Don't know what you lie for anyway
Now there's nothing left to say

A tell-tale sign
You don't know where to draw the line

And why'd you say
It's just another day, nothing in my way
I don't wanna go, I don't wanna stay
So there's nothing left to say
And why'd you lie
When you wanna die, when you hurt inside
Don't know what you lie for anyway
Now there's nothing left to say

Well for a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time
For a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time
For a lonely soul, it seems to me that you're having such a nice time
You're having such a nice time



I'm guessing some of you suspect I'm dead, but I am alive. My internet spends more time disconnected than it does connected, not per my choice I should mention.

I've been avoiding drawing. Drawing has always been a very private thing for me, to such an extreme that I won't even phantom the idea of drawing unless its dark or I know no one is home. I've probably sketched a handful of things, if that, since my last submission. This is the only thing I've actually finished. So before you all start huffin' and puffin' to blow me down, commissions are in a very, very gradual process. I do, sincerely, apologize for any irritation this may cause but I can't for the life of me force myself to draw anything in the day time. And I'm so paranoid that even drawing at night I only have one headphone in, so I can hear anyone coming downstairs.

Anyway let me sum this up before I get disconnected.

I really got in to this Keane song and so I listened to it while drawing this picture. My beloved Kai. I feel like she's making her debut all over again. I finally felt that connection again, after all these years, I feel like she's a part of me again. I probably should have just slapped on some cheesy gradient background but I felt like speed painting so.. speed painting is what you get. Bad, but still better than a gradient background, I guess..

I miss this community so much. I miss coming on, getting to see everyone's new uploads, maybe making a comment here and there. I'll come back and dive in head on, hopefully by the end of the summer things will be better sorted. Until then I've got a couple of commissions to tend to, and maybe another piece of Kai will show up here and there.

Until then.. I hope all of you are well. It was never my intention to "abandon" DA, it's just not meshing well with everything else right now. Keep on keeping on, I want to see tons of beautiful art by you guys when I come back around.
