Happy valentines day everyone! I know I haven't been around here much, and have been taking quite a while to reply to comments but- I still love you and appreciative you all very much.  I will always have a place in my heart for deviantart and all the people I've had the pleasure to meet here.  So much inspiration and encouragement! I honestly haven't' had a bad experience here (well maybe on the forums but I learned to avoid that place pretty early on!).  

I hope to be back soon, and really do want to use the points you all so graciously donated to me to start a subscription and do features again.  I really love being part of this community with all of you.  I am going to try to set aside a time each week to make art, and do it whether I feel like it or even have the time!  Hopefully I will have something to share soon.  Real life gets in the way sometimes, but the good news is I am all through with college and art school and finally have my degree.  It's wonderful! I feel so free, although with graduation comes new responsibilities, I feel that when it comes to art and how I choose to spend my time it's up to me and it's wonderful.

I hope you are all doing well.  Whether you have a valentine or not, think of yourself as your valentine and take it easy.  It sounds cliche but really, love yourself that's what matters most.  I love you!
