Long time, No See

Wow, haven't been here for awhile. Thanks to everyone who has commented on my work, even if I've never gotten around to responding. I have a bad relationship with my art as I think its all crap. And I'm so out of practice with my creative writing that reading even a single chapter of my old work makes me want to cry.
At this point in time, I've gone about four years without even picking up a pencil to do any artwork. I just don't feel it anymore. And I haven't felt it since I graduated with my BFA in 2003. I think I will always hate University for taking my love of drawing away from me. I have been taking more photographs however!
After I kind of burned out on cosplaying, I moved onto the dreaded creepy elitist snobby ABJD scene. Yeah... they're expensive dolls. And yeah, a lot of people like to think they're special and part of the I'm Better Than You (tm) club because they have one. Still, I like them. Actually, I thought they were pretty damn creepy at first, but they've grown on me and now I have 5, with 2 more incoming. But they are each very distinctly different from one another and I really don't see myself having anymore than that. 7 is too many as it is.
Almost all of my current photography has centered around them. I find it enjoyable and I end up liking my dolls in my photos MORE than I like the dolls in person. Its about capturing a bit of feeling from an inanimate object. I do have a bit of a hang-up in that I'm a bit obsessed with portrait shots.
Ah well.

But yeah, they are creepy. When I first saw them, I was really wierded out by them as well, particularly by the seperate eyes. But then I saw one I actually 'kinda' liked and it all went downhill from there.
