My Bio
I'm a musician (sort of), photographer (not much anymore) and art-lover (for the most part) living in Colorado.

I've been on dA for over 13(!) years now, and by participating here I have learned more about the fundamentals and aesthetics of art than I have from any art class. I'm here in hopes of improving my craft.

It's been quiet here on my little dA page. I've been lurking, I'm here every day, but I haven't submitted a photo in almost a year, nevermind been at all social. I don't even browse much anymore. I took some photos over New Year's when I was in a beautiful mountain cabin in the middle of nowhere. Those photos are still on my memory card, which has not been removed from my camera. I tried to get my website nailed down and functional, and that simply slipped out of my grasp. The idea of picking up my cameras seems more a chore than a delight. I've tried everything I can think of to renew my interest - browsing inspiring artwork, buying equipme

All of my photography - the raw images, the photoshop files, everything from when I first started in 2007 to the most recent strawberry photo - they're gone.  The external hard drive that held everything was knocked off my desk and broken.  The files are probably retrievable, but I don't have a spare $1,000 sitting around to pay for it. I'm still not sure how to react.  Five years of photo work, gone in the space of a few seconds. Stuff is still online here and elsewhere in small, low-res form, which is good.  Little windows of the real thing. :( EDIT I did some digging on my computer hard drive, a

Thanks for the llama :happybounce:

I knew a llama once. At least I thought I knew him. I mean, how well can anyone really know anyone, much less a llama. With their air of mystery and thinly veiled contempt. It’s hard. But I digress.
His name was Kevin. But for reasons I will never understand, he would only ever answer to Albert. Identity issues aside, things started out okay. The usual introductory sniffing and sneezing went well, despite his allergies, but then things started going downhill during the ritual licking phase of the pleasantries. We pushed through. And had it not been for the spitting, we might have even been able to make it work, but alas, after just 3 seconds of bittersweet brotherhood, we finally decided to part ways. It’s kind of sad, when you think about it. Spitting seems like such an innocent thing to fight over, but he was pretty adamant that I should stop and that was just never going to happen. We might have overcome that issue, but Kevin, like all llamas, was very competitive. First came the stench competitions. Then it was belching contests. And lastly, a painstaking count to see which one was hairier. You can clearly see why our relationship was doomed. The poor fellow was a bit of a sore loser.
So he snuck out, taking with him a failed friendship, an obliviously optimistic dread of the future, and my sixth favorite toothbrush. Now that he is gone, I can honestly say, it's for the best. He was too much of a chick magnet anyway and who needs that drama? :shakefist:

Full disclaimer, as Kevin’s official biographer, a position of which he blackmailed me into (don’t ask), I’ve been instructed to inform you about his ongoing series. The journey starts here with The Kevin Chronicles - Chapter 1, and this gallery contains the rest. You should check it out.

*End of cue card*

And don't worry, they're pretty short.
No pressure though, only if you want.

:D 
"He was too much of a chick magnet anyway and who needs that drama?"

Super casual sexism there dude. :yawn:
Yeah, I can see that. Sorry. ^^;
Considering the complete absurdity of the whole story, I just assumed that people wouldn't take any aspect of it seriously. That's kind of the point.
Absurd sexism is still sexism though. I thought the story was cute until that line.
