Yet again we find are selves at the end of another year, they seem to come so fast now just flying by changing so much then they end only to ring another one, another year to make acheivments, mistakes, progres, and falls. But no one can deniy that every year past has changed them in a good way even if it doesnt seem like it at first, every experience, good or bad, makes you stronger and better, this year for me inparticular has been a big step for me, a step that will progres for a long time.

Over the past year I started to loosen my grip on my love of space art and really start to broaden my skills which payed off almost instantly with the introduction of my first paid commission, a big momment in my life which has onyl fueled my passion to progres further in the field of digital art. Now several months since my first commission I started to get more and more, some which where a big deal for me. With every commission it drives me forward into previously unknown waters which is a great motivation to progres further.

But nothing I have acheived over the past 2 years since I started my digital art would have been possible if it wasnt for this place and the people who make it what it is, a comunity of artists always willing to help, it is becasue of all of you who have gave me helping comments, constructive critique, faved or even just passed by to look, because of you I moved forwards, strived to beat my self with every image made so for that I can only thank you and hope you stay with it through the new year.
Also I have had the honor of being part of a big new art group the Luminarium which is growing larger each day and is now being recognised for the work its artists do, so expect some new cool anouncments and stuff fom them through the new year.

So now to personaly thank those who have helped me the most, pushed me in the right direction and pestered me continuously until I get things right or even just seeing their work in general, its these people who have had the biggest impact on me and I owe them the biggest thanks.







And to the person who as stuck with me for so long and has aways been there to give their truthful views and opinion, my love Frances if it wasnt for her I wouldnt have got as far as I have, she is my world and is always there when I need her.

So thats my end of year ramble over, 2009 will be, in the words of the crazy Cliffy B, Bigger, Better and more Badass.
Have a good one yall
