Description
And here we are, a gathered crowd, all patiently waiting. But for what? We do not know. What we do know is that the happening everyone is waiting for, hasn't started yet. Some grow a little impatience, others are almost asleep, others are telling stories (to sub audiences which aren't always that interested so to see) but the majority just stands there, doing nothing. Recognize yourself in it? Or your surroundings?(framed here fav.me/d4makrx in the UK)

the fact that you keep the lines so clean is half the fun and amazement of these.

You feel pity? I know I get a bit nervous right before I submit something like start checking imperfections but, I guess I can see some pity but that is a new one for me

well, compare it to finishing a good book, you've spent hours, days, maybe weeks with it. Got into it. And then suddenly, finished.
Same goes for these drawings.

Ah i see, it is kind of a fear...yeah i can relate to that in some aspects. I want to jump right into something else usually I fear more that something else wont come along for inspiration or I will get into a creative loop and keep doing the same thing. I guess that is why I tend to try to be so particular about what I look at when I talk to people it seems more enjoyable when I see something special.

exactly! That's the same way I see things. Not only in art but in everything! Usually not going with the easy mainstream, think things over twice, decide what I like (not what's expected from me to like) etc.

Yeah, I like trying to push myself. I guess that's the way to put it in the most basic way. So I took some I had a lot of nature shots, then I tried drawing, and then did a bit of coloring, and then also tried a bit of abstract ideas and writing lol. Now I don't know, it's mostly what I can find to work with and I don't want to just submit snapshots basically so i guess I doctor some up heavily. I fight with trying not to think to hard mostly. It comes from the very beginning of trying to find a concept and then right before I submit and question what I did :3.
You're work, it just has so much flow and personality in the the concepts, it's hard for me to say. I think you have a good thing going right now. If you can keep drawing massive amounts of characters like you do but come up with a concept for them to deal or interact with, I think you have a pretty good grasp of life based concepts for a long time.

Just typed a rather long reply but something went wrong...but the bottom line: I couldn't agree with you more

Sorry about that, that get's frustrating when that happens. DA causes weird problems a lot, maybe it went into Read Only mode or something? I appreciate our conversation though, it has been a pleasure discovering your art, can't wait to see more

yes, every now and then dA seems to have a mind of it's own...but no biggie, overall it's a great medium with loads of interesting people you never meet in the secular world. It's fun to think about this thing for a while: I've been here for say 3 months now and the visitor counter is a little below the 10.000. Watchers I already have about 150 and loads of people are chatting and some are even talking to me.
I wonder how this would be in the real world...would they all even say hi?
Back to art: I've uploaded 2 small teasers where the latest 'style' is noticable. And look, many people saying things like: 'I like the interactions' or 'it's so alive'. An excellent confirmation for me that I've taken the right road (which reminds me of Robert Frost's 'the road not taken', do you know this neat little poem?)
