In my first week or so here,

I've worked fairly hard to create some fun artwork and I have been anxiously awaiting the results. After a number of satisfactory, but generally quiet days, I've been hammered with upvotes and follows just this morning.

I'm DEEPLY appreciative of everyone's recognition and kindness. I don't think it's too early to say this community is giving me hope on a lot of different levels. I'm rarely one to get emotional, but I'm totally stunned.

I should prevent myself from waxing eloquent and just give everyone a virtual high-five. Fluffy talk isn't my scene. Just know that I'm very grateful.

Thank you again. And sorry for the crummy photoshop on this one.

My life is very hectic now, but this morning I have a renewed sense of purpose. This lights a fire under my pants to push even harder to bring my small but growing group of fans my very best! Stay tuned!

Upcoming projects:

I am going to colorize "Crypto Bottom Feeders" and I'm planning to enter SteemIt's pixel art competition.
