I am going to Perpich now. It has been a good year and I have produced only one peice I have yet to put up here. I have figured out that I love dark room a lot more than Digital. It seems more soulful. My darkroom obsession is made up of mostly pin hole photography, which I will also be uploading soon. I have met many great people and all of them wonderful artists. I go to school every day with the best minds any teenager could ask for. I have a lot of work to upload here to feed you all.

On a sad note. My darling wonderful pug dog Winston passed away. [link] It was really hard and recently those mourning thoughts have awoken and it's like he passed away yesterday. We put him down September 15th from a collapsing trachea that a lot of small dogs get.

I really miss him.

Perpich my arts High School is finally starting! Next week. I am very very exciting. I'll make sure to post my class mates DA's so you guys can see who I am working with and such. I'll have many projects to submit more than just every month or two. I miss you guys and I'm surprised at how much you guys seem to like my Cigarette ID! Thank you for reaching 100 favorites.

ALSO! I have re-done my deviation Airborne Thoughts. There was a DD today that had the same concept so I wanted to get it in tip-top shape. So go check it out and tell me what you think! Vast improvement from my old edit-scheme. Still the same photo shot a year ago. Your comments mean everything so thank you!

I always feel so rushed after I shoot people. I don't charge anyone a penny. After the night or day I shoot I get constant text messages "hurry, I want to see my pictures! ". I feel that I should be allowed all the time I need to edit them and look through them. Of course unless I told them I would get to them at a certain time. What do most of you guys do in these situations? I feel pressured and it makes me not want to even do shoots for people.

I was away from DeviantART for a while around 2 months no work submitted and only checked once and a while for the Daily Deviations. I come back and submit a few pieces and this is probably the most attention I have ever gotten on this site. I don't know what sparked it? But I want to thank you all for it very much. Each comment makes it all worthwhile and it every smile and that feeling of accomplishment I get when I get a comment will never fade in a million years! So thank you all very very very much. Means a ton to know that I am doing a decent job on my art work.

I am right now shooting or re-shooting some shots for my new and improved portfolio. I really am also enjoying messing around with paint and stuff, nothing special. My friend Ariana is an amazing painter and it getting so good every day. She has the passion for it and I think I am going to make her join. You can see her in my photo of her : [link] . I'm taking shots of her soon, experimental of course. She's my best friend so I don't know why I don't have more shots of her! But yes, I am reshooting a lot of my stuff- by reshooting I mean similar ideas shot in an improved way.

I can't wait for Perpich my new Arts High School to start!
Thanks for the comments and favorites and watchers.

Ahhh I'm over the hill

It was exactly one year from now that I got my Canon Rebel XTi with a crappy little lense.
I had no I idea I would become a "photographer". I had no idea where my camera would take me!
It's interesting seeing what I have taught myself with the ghetto Elements 6 program, and lighting.

I just want to thank my models my friends and everyone who helped contribute to everything I accomplished in my 15th year.

Getting into Perpich

I have to say though, I really hope this year is better than my last!

Thank you to all
