Hi everyone! How's everyone doing? :meow:

As many of you know (or at least those who are going), Anime Expo is just around the corner~
My girlfriend :iconhungrysohma16: and I will be attending (once again) for my 5th time at the artist alley. :aww:

We'll be seated at A10 and hope to see you visit our table. :D
(To :icon47ness: : Why are we always placed at opposite sides from each other~? :iconcomebackplz: )
For those who don't know where that is, here's a picture:

[insert picture of where the hell we're at in the future so that no one's confused]

I hope all of you can go this year (especially), because I have something important to say that may come as a shocker to some:

I won't be attending Anime Expo anymore.

Or at least for the next 2~3 years.

School's become more important than ever, and I really want to focus on that, and seeing as to my girlfriend up-and-ready to start her Radiology program soon, I don't want to go off attending AX without her.

Con prepping does eat up time along with school; if anything, just as much~ And since I can't just give up on education, AX can always be pushed back for another time.

Another reason why I'm no longer attending AX: I want to focus on Shatter.

For the longest of time, I've been feeling crummy of the progression. And I know that as soon as I graduate, I'll no longer have time since I'll constantly be job hunting and future employers will ask me to put more of my time for them.

Despite the years of pushing myself, I haven't even finished chapter 1, so I think it's time I took initiative in making this happen...!
To those who looked forward to seeing me in future years, I'm sorry. I hope all of you understand the decision I've made.

Rest assured, if you'd still like to make purchase of my prints and keychains, that will still happen online.
I'll give everyone further updates to when that will happen.

Once again, apologies for these tragic decisions, and hope that all of you still continue to look forward to more of my work. (I survive on your support~! </3 )

So this is the last time for us at AX~!
Whether it be your first time visiting or as returning visitors, I hope to see all of you there~! :heart:

I'm am amateur artist that found his love for drawing on August 29, 2005 who has never found interest before then. I hated drawing before because it was tedious.

Throughout my experience, I've had my ups and downs. I've received many discouragements from pursuing this path (and especially from my high school teacher) exclaiming that this is not a field for my future, only because I wasn't great at drawing.

Despite these harsh remarks, I pressed on.

However, because of my stubbornness and optimism to continue striving, I'm happily rewarded with people who continue to look forward to my work, as well as blessed with a wonderful girlfriend, :iconhungrysohma16:, who to this day continues to be my inspiration as to why I should keep on going.

Despite my improvements over the course of time, I still see myself as someone who's still new and fresh; always seeking guidance to others regardless of experience, whether it be on Deviantart, the internet itself, or in real life. As such, I always look to everyone to continue improving.

And that's who I wish to become in life: an inspiration to all hardworking artists out there; to show those fresh on the field that you don't have to be a genius or one has to have started drawing young.

To those who do wish to improve as an artist, here's my advice to you:

As long as you stay honest, patient and optimistic...anything is possible.

Be proud of who you are, and what you do; keep your head up, and strive forward.

And to always remember, that there is no such thing as perfection in the world...only experience.
