Trying to get by

Sat Jan 11, 2003, 4:25 PM
Well, here is my first Journal entry into the great interconnected community that is Deviantart, and like so many artists I feel more than just personal satisfaction when I create art . . . it's simply a passion. It has no boundries, and there are never enough people in the world creating it, widening the views of the general public, making them look through lenses which offer a different perspective. I see art not so much as a means of income, but a way of self expression, however my dilemma is the fact that I like basically all kinds of art, and I want to narrow down to a specific sub type to make a living out of it. I want to wake up everyday and feel like I want to go to work. I want to make a difference. I want to take art to a realm beyond personal expression . . . simply I want to have influence upon society for the benefit of all through art.

I know this sounds really utopian ( God forbid ), but this is one of my primary goals within my life. I am still young, and at the same time I haunted by the notion that there is a possibility that won't succeed in this abstract mission, but I know that somehow I will find my way.

Wow, that came out a lot more personal and serious than I expected. Take it or leave it, that's who I am.

oh, and, with a 200pt soft airbrush, made the formation as best as i could, then with a small hard edged smudge, i spent hours refining the edges, pushing the colours around :)

Man; thank you so much for that info about how you did the clouds. Many artists are very sensitive about revealing their techniques about how they create their art, understandibly so, since it seems artists are very competitive, but it was very very kind and much appreciated by you. I thank you sincerely, you give me inspiration to do triped out nebulas! Take care
:iconrenonevada:
Thank you for the compliment. :D
