Hello,

I perfectly well know that no one reads this, that is why this is perfect, haha. I've come to a realization last time I tried to magically make art appear in my computer screen that I have an art block. It's that dreadful feeling of staring at something you've made and disliking it to the very core until you delete it. It is not pleasant, of course, and I do not finish whatever I begin. Actually, it's very irritating. But this entry's point is not about art block that I want to punch right in the nose, but about missing this. This being making art for people. 

I've been very busy with my life (and my life pretty much equals my university and its piles of work given to me). And the more I keep on going, the more I start thinking, daily in fact, about how I miss having a shop, doing at least an order a day or every two days. It's sad, to be honest. Yes, I do some orders here and there occasionally, most are gifts, but it's not the same. I miss being an artist.

Not to mention other kinds of art, traditional one and such. I haven't done anything proper in a year. I miss it so bad, and yet I cannot bring myself to find time for it. So is this what they call art block? All of it does tie up together, doesn't it?

Either way, I am a bit sad. I miss being active in art. And I hope to get that chance eventually.

First of all, This is Blindly's deviantart account from IMVU.

Hehe, second of all, quick explanation - on the GASR (www.gasrforum.com) I am trying to get the Authentic Artist Badge, so that is why I am writing this journal entry. ^^

:iconimhighplz: Hello,

few of you might know "Ni-ino" here on dA (or LadyNaara, now Blindly on IMVU), well, that's me, however I deactivated the old account, because art stealing became ridiculous and all my work wasn't watermarked properly. ( I was too lazy to delete them all one by one. Sadly, I didn't find a way to delete them all at once. :iconverynotimpressedplz: )
But I'm not leaving dA, because this is a lovely place. That is why I created a new account and from now on I will upload only watermarked art, mostly from IMVU. ( silly of me to not do it in the first place, and so naive of me to expect that people are not selfish :iconohdearplz: ).

So, I'm starting all over again with the beggining of the New, 2012 year.

Happy 2012 !
