In a few weeks I might be making a new account.
I won't be deleting this one, but I will be stripping
it down and clearing out what I don't like.

When I joined dA I was a student in school
playing around with various mediums, digital
or otherwise. I created some interesting pieces,
but nothing truly intentional or anything that could
be considered real art or design... more like
experiments.

I lost interest over the past two years as kids fresh with a
copy of photoshop seemingly flocked to dA with intentions
to exploit it as a social networking platform... while I too
joined as a newbie to the digital art age, I don't recall ever
seeking to use dA as anything other than an art-centered
discussion and gallery.

I also felt, for a time, that many of dA's policies and
copyright agreements were somewhat exploitive and
for the most part a hassle. The red tape had choked the
freedom of expression, so to speak.

Those "veterans" among you will no doubt recall the
much hyped-up Jark & Matteo VS deviantART fiasco,
and various other earlier "cases" of dA's collapse as a simple
online gallery for artists/designers to it's evolution as a
free-for-all social network for every kid with a web-cam,
so to speak.

Now, as I see the dA community returning to what it
once was (sort of), namely, a community of artists and designers,
I feel compelled to update. Although sensationalism and
social-standings still reign supreme, I see many professionals
and others in my industry getting on board.

So why not make a comeback.

I am now a 3rd year Visual Communications student and
freelance graphic designer. I mainly produce work for clients
in the music & creative industries. On the side I like to
consider myself an artist, creative and music junkie.

Stay tuned for new account details.
