Looks like Gene is attemting to draw something. Let's see what befalls him...
GENE: "Gah! Stupid art---submit to my will!"
[Gene looks the drawing over]
[Gene crumbles the drawing and tosses it over his shoulder]
GENE: "Thanks---I hate it"
GENE: "My art is horrible---why do I draw, anyway? I should take up hockey or something..."
[Gene's phone pings, alerting him that he has messages]
The messages are positivities regarding his recent art
[Gene sighfully acquiesces---he attempts to draw again]
[Gene succeeds and is happy with his new drawing]
Bible quote,
"...whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things" -Philippians 4:8

This was vent art.
I made this after listening to Psalty's Missing 9 album (no judgies!), specifically after Charity Churchmouse's 'Things that are Good' song (listen here; link tested 03//04/2023): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCqPuc5m8_8&t=925s
Now, let's be clear that I have NOT 'returned' or however one might phrase it ...in part because I never left, and also because I've bought more ACO cards. ^^ No, the point of this art was for me to TRY (for the umpteenth time---let's be real) to relieve some negative feelings about myself and my cartoons.
That said, I'd be remiss and dishonest to say I like uploading art bought from the internet. :p
I mean, there's nothing wrong with it---I've often uploaded art I've bought from thrift stores, etc (most of which is seen only on DeviantArt), albeit with the notable difference that such uploads were RARE, and not meant to replace or erase 'me' (as it were).
I'm in a catch-22, 'damned if I do, damned if I don't' situation.
I'm unsure what art it is. I delete stuff infrequently, so it may be gone, but almost all the gallery that was here a month ago still is---it's just friends-only (I don't do friend requests, so it's all hidden and will remain so for the foreseeable future).
You can try my DeviantArt.

I've always said (and will still say) that I've always loved your artwork. But, take that however you will. As I know that's what this is about. And that's totally ok. The only person in control of your artwork & what you drawing is you. And ONLY you. And if you want or don't want to do something, that's your call. And I'm ok with your call either way. Aside from your art, I have also enjoyed talking to you & having conversations in PM's or comments.
You've got a good head on your shoulders. And from what I've seen, you are a sweet person. Which, is a good thing to have in today's society. And sometimes, we can be our own worst critics. Or, the worst place anyone can be is in their own mind. I'm LITERALLY the same exact way. I can REALLY be my own worst enemy sometimes. But, anywho it's not about me. I hope whatever you decide to do in your future, it'll give you your happiness & freedom. I'll still be around & be loyal either way hehe

Well, good on you for not doing that! As I'm sure there will always be people interested in seeing your work regardless whether you make more or not. I'll always do the same thing. The only thing I MIGHT do, is just delete some drawings that didn't turn out all that well. But other than that, I always make sure I keep my gallery up. Just in case lol.
And same, man. It's all we can do. Well, that's all I can do at least lol. This week & weekend was just one of those times for myself too. I hate letting people down & I help so many people. I just hope they're all thankful. Because I bust my rear for them, and I do it out of the kindness of my heart. I don't HAVE to do what I do. But I choose to, because I love people too much & I'm very loyal. And I'm all about working away a problem. But I have to tell ya, this shit wears me out sometimes. This weekend was one of those times.
And you're very welcome! :3 Just keep at it in life. Whatever it is that keeps you happy, just keep doing it hehe
Well, good on you for not doing that! As I'm sure there will always be people interested in seeing y
Most of what I delete is either art I've redrawn or feel is too awful to keep on-site. Otherwise, it's NSFW stuff that tends to be purged after a while.
I wrestle with guilt and feelings of obligation all the time. :p

Yeah I mean, some of my artwork from back in the day is just cringy. Looking at it now. I figured it was cool at the time I made it, but seeing it now......Either my art style was whack, or the idea wasn't really that great. And I do have the INTENT on re-making some drawings. But will I ever do it, probably not lmao. But you never know, so we'll see.
And so do I, honestly. As I KNOW I could have done better, be more successful, and accomplished so much more at my age. But I'm not good at handling change. Especially if it's sudden, or bad. And I've always had a weak temper, and big trust issues with people. Especially new people, or people that say they admire me or wanna be like me. Because, NO. You don't wanna be like me. But I guess sometimes, again we can be our own worst enemy.
Alright anywho. I talk too much lmao.

Well just know, I'm as real as it gets. Anything I say is true & is how I feel. I'm VERY selective of who I watch, who I think deserves my respect & friendship, and what artwork I like. As I'm ALSO very sensitive. And I have trust issues too. So if I watch someone, they are lucky. As I feel like they deserve it & have earned my respect. You not only have created some adorable drawings & comics, but I've also enjoyed talking to you when we do hehe.
But yeah, just know anything I say is 100% accurate. And that's coming from someone that's not easy to impress lol
Most definitely :3 Well just know, I'm as real as it gets. Anything I say is true & is how I feel.
I guess negative feelings are your personal life challenge to overcome, and I know you can succeed since you do have support, even if we are faceless people on the internet, we cannot all be crazy, right? ;) .

Hi there, did you change your mind about your gallery? Do you intend to upload here in the future? Anyway, I am glad to see you post anything here at all. :-)

I'm presently choosing to ignore my negative feelings---I'm going to temporarily suspend the HypotheticalWatcher. Though I'm the one who writes that stuff, it nevertheless affects me. I guess I was 'self-triggered' and acted out in accordance with that.
Foxy is glad to see me post. XD

Chippy, I have wrestled with negative thoughts and feelings too. I wallowed in them... until I realized something:
It accomplishes absolutely nothing and makes you feel increasingly worse. It is perfectly normal to feel sad at times but don't let yourself get caught up in it. Also be careful when trying to numb such feelings. (alcohol).
This was anothed preechy lecture by Foxy! Good day!

I'm very happy to seeing you and your gallery back; I was really upset to see you leave. The simple, cute innocence of what you draw has a warmth to it that is special and that brightens my day to see. So I'm really glad to see it again XP.

And once again I posted in your latest without checking on your other posts. *sigh* Regardless it's nice to see your art again and yes THE PENCIL HAD RETURNED!!! (does happy dance!!)
About that Dixon, is the texture actually on the wood itself or is it a coating of some kind. And does it feel like the texture helps you hold the pencil or is it mostly for show.
Those are cute drawings. :) About that Dixon, is the texture actually on the wood itself or is it a
it is funny, I bet that Pacopanda probably received some comments like that as well for some of his art, you know what? He still does both digital and traditional.
