I normally write very little in my journals as I enjoy featuring the people who make kickass art. However, this time round I'd like to additionally explain my absence. My day job is taking me out of the country and I'll have limited, if any, Internet access. Even if I can get to the Internet, it's likely DA will be blocked as my work and the host country feels the nude human form is inappropriate.
I'll miss you my friends. I'm already looking forward to my return (this fall sometime) when I can catch up on all the wonderful stuff you've created.
In the mean time, here are some people I admire...
