my life has taken a very drastic turn.
I work 2 jobs, and I'm a full time student (final year of University)
I spend my friday, saturday, sunday (and every night really) locked in a computer lab all by myself
but despite the lack of sleep and permanent red eyes
I'm happier than I've ever been.

I never understood how people just stopped drawing. It seemed like such a waste, especially those of a particular talent. 
But I get it now.
Drawing is selfish. It's self indulgent, something I did for myself to make myself happy. 
And by surrendering it I made room for something much bigger and more important.

DRAWING IS NOT SELFISH.
How could YOU, ONE OF MY FAVORITE ARTISTS say that? :(
And the art you create is not only for you. on the contrary, it is mainly for others.
It is something you create by yourself, you put pieces of your soul in it and I think it is the most beautiful thing that human can make.
It is something you can share with others.

I just want you to know that I like your style and drawings ;-;
And thank you for all the motivation and hope that your art has ever given me.
Being a true artist is really hard and amazing. And you will always be one.
