Huh... DeviantArt.... it has really been this long already...? Hm..... I am sorry. I really and honestly am, for not being active, not even thinking of dA in last few months (doesn't mean you guys don't cross my mind a lot though), and posting is.... The last thing I want to do. I don't feel like sharing anything with anyone outside my small circle, and honestly, as much as I love art... I love other things too. Things never got to experience until now, and I really love it. I still draw, I even got a drawing tablet (and a damn good one) a month ago, but... It doesn't... feel right? It's hard to explain, but sharing anything I create at the moment... no go. If I create even. My passion for art didn't die, and never will, I will never stop creating, that much I can promise, but... I'm going to continue this break for at least some time. Your support so far was always, without exception amazing, and kept me going. To the point that I started creating art for sake of others, and not for myself any longer. I can't describe how grateful I am for all the support I have received here, but it's time for me to... Focus? Relax? Live? Not sure which one to pick, but probably a mixture of all of them plus more. I will come back, of that I am also sure, but when? No idea. When it feels right? When I'm not so.... Almost disgusted by the thought of sharing my own art (which has nothing to do with what I think of my own art, those are 2 separate worlds) on the internet. I tried creating ArtAmino, and I did, I thought I was just tired of dA.... but no. The "issue" is deeper than that. So I really hope you understand my decision... I do however take a peek on your art from time to time and I am always so happy to see just how much you're all progressing and growing, as artists, and people. I am writing this a little sad, because of all the memories here and amazing people I met.... But like I said, this isn't for ever. Just for some time.
Have a nice spring everyone.

Thank you all SO much for 10, 101 page views. This is a very special number I never thought I could reach, and this is just.... beyond my understanding, but it really makes me happy, so thank each and every one of you. :heart: :heart:
More art coming...
Just wanted to share this little photo I took around a week ago (view from my room). I may despise winter, but I like the sight of snow at night. When you're inside where it's warm with your hot chocolate (or in my case ice coffee), it's a nice view....
Looks like artist's block is back in town. Yay.
I honestly don't have much to show, unless you're interested in routine, everyday drawings of cones, cubes, triangles, circles and so on. I really hope I can come back soon, but right now? It seems like...

Hello. My name is J.C. Solis. I just thanked you for a Favorite when I saw this status. I'm a writer by trade, and am only good at doing crude sketches. But I create imagery and scenes with words.
I understand how itfeels to not create art. I felt that way several times mys dec ided to become moreelf, and I too have gone months without writing even a short Haiku, let alone a full 5000+ word story or chapter.
But recently, I've decided to become more active and focused with my writings.
It's because I enjoy writing, not just for myself, but for other people to enjoy as well. Art can be personal, but it can also be shared. I feel so happywhen people view, favorite, and even comment on my work. I sometimes ask for critiques from other people, and I take it with a grain of salt as a means to improve, (unless it's unfair or spiteful).
Writing to me is wholesome and healthy. I basically feed off of other people's joy and pleasure when they like my work. I wonder if you ever felt the same, and I hope you do, too.
I hope you get back to creating more art. I want you to feel happy to do so as well. I'm sure plenty of people would like to see your work. But if you're not up to it yet, then that's understandable as well. There is no pressure.
If you ever feel like creating again, then I hope to see it. I have the idea that it will be a good one.
I'll see you later. Keep strong and carry on!
