If you're here only because you like feet and don't give a damn about art, you might as well stop reading here.

Because I'm sick of that last journal, I feel the need to shed a bit of light on some choice pieces of gift art I've received from my very dear friends! I also want to ensure that all of you give these galleries a peek.

I find it hard to believe people aren't swarming to this account. It's the one and only Cheshire Cat! The very same man you knew from way-back-when who mingled in the TK community among such artists as Poisonous Monkey, Ozzy, and Scamwich! And he's come a long way! Cheshire and I met through the first edition of the S4 project, to which I was invited as a guest artist and newcomer to the scene. I think it really helped me get out there, so I have to thank him for that. He's also a terrific guy with a great personality. Thanks for everything, man.

Who the hell is this girl? She's certainly not a part of the TK community. But she is my friend. My best friend Sara, in fact. She lives right here in Owensboro, KY just a few blocks from my house, and we've been tight ever since high school. Sara's definitely a unique one with an art style unlike anything I've ever seen, constantly evolving and rarely consistent, but still appealing and enjoyable to look at. That said, she has been sweet enough to draw me some gift art on occasion, and it's always a pleasant surprise. Those of you with eclectic taste in artwork, I urge you to give her stuff a look.

Maybe shining the spotlight on an already renowned artist is redundant, but, who gives a shit? I don't!! June's been a sweetie to me ever since we first met, and we hit it off so well, I believe, thanks to a certain purple-haired rocker of mine you know today as Regina Venus. Since then she and I have done our share of art for one another, though I'm pretty sure she's done more for me than I have her, which I intend to make up for in due time. I already have ideas~ I showcase her here because she's been nothing but an excellent friend to me in the juuust shy of a year that I've known her, and I only hope things get better between us. She's a dear~

I bet this icon's shown up a little too often in my gallery lately, hasn't it? Link may not be an "artist" under the definition you're most aware of, but he is a writer all the same, and he does what he does for the pure purpose of having fun. I'd say that qualifies as an artist, when you express yourself through any medium. The creator of the one and only Tsu-maru, you ought to be sure you give this guy's work a look. He's begun a second season of his Mahou Shoujo Kusuguru Tsu-maru series, so what's stopping you? Get caught up and enjoy! _{My apologies for the cruddy thumbnails, it can't be helped D:}

I'm sure a great deal of you are familiar with Ross and his work. He's done more giftart for me than I can name in a single sitting and definitely deserves his share of thanks. In fact, I only discovered him because of a piece of gift art he had drawn for me, without ever telling me about it! Since then we've socialized and gotten better acquainted, and he's now a very dear friend of mine, despite his silly attitude on more than one occasion You're like a brother to me, Ross. I'm happy to talk with you as often as I do, and more than happy to show your stuff off here



Annnd I suppose that's it for now. I hope some of you discovered something new there!

Before anyone asks, YES, I'm still working on the comic!! I took a different approach to inking this thing than I probably should have, but it's far cleaner than any other method, so in the end, it shall be a testament of my hard work! And slacking off! Yeees, because I'm a lazy bastard if ever you knew one!

That's what you wanted to hear, right? Just hold your horses, people. It will come. I have a promise to keep. _{And a reputation to bring back D;}
