Hello everyone,

It seems as if I continue to weave a tangled web for myself in life -- I constantly change my mind about things and become more and more frustrated in the process. Attempting to please anyone and everyone whom I meet in life, I've neglected myself and my own, personal wishes. Consequentially, artistic progression has trudged on rather slowly, on my part, and I'm utterly fed up with not doing what I want to do.

Returning to college so as to graduate with an AS degree was more of an act of trying to gain personal satisfaction than anything, along with having something to do over the course of several months so as I would feel like I was actually making good use of my time... like everybody else. The trouble is... I'm still not content. Although I don't mind the classes that I'm taking (for the most part), what I really want to do is draw. I want to draw. I want to sketch cartoons by day, and render my compositions by night. I want to refine my life drawing skills so as I may progress as an artist. I want to spend my time in the cinema and in front of the television studying character designs, poses, and expressions. I want to attend an art university....

Taking all of this into account, I may just skip my next semester of college -- skip college altogether after this semester, in fact -- so as I might spend my wages on life drawing classes. I would get that much closer to my goal if I payed for sketchbooks than novels on the theory of evolution. Plus, I'm sick and tired of hearing about other people (namely friends of mine and artists that I admire) living out their artistic dreams while I sulk from the sidelines. :roll:

Hey there! Aren't you Mitch on PixarPlanet? I absolutely adore your sketches!

I can see you're also a Star Wars fan. I've gota Revenge of the Sith poem in my gallery. It's titled "Brother vs. Brother".

Hello!
This may seem like a stupid question but..did you create the film Ratatouille? ^^
:iconmitch-el:
~Mitch-el 5 days 9 hours ago
Hello, Hexide!

Wow. What a compliment. Unfortunately, I did not work on or create the film, Ratatouille. Pixar Animation Studios and its talented crew are the masterminds behind that production, and Brad Bird was the director of the film. I don't work at Pixar... yet -- I'm simply an aspiring artist/student. One of these days, though, I will work at Pixar!

Thank you very much for the compliment, once again! It really means a lot. :aww:

Hey, really nice art. I love the way you draw Pixar characters, you draw them in such an intriguing style yet they're still recognizable.

Keep it up!
