[ Sketch Kiriban on 25,000 ]

Well, my Subscription time had run out some time ago, I´ll have to be creative until I solve this with simple Journal Features! =]

---------------------
[ News from Real Life ]
---------------------

More than three Months have passed since last entry on my Journal.

Lots of good things happened, and altough I was not able to be active here on DeviantArt, I´ve been working with Art pretty much.
On last months I worked drawing and coloring School Books for Children. Very nice but I thing I won´t be able to submit them here on DeviantArt.

I also got some work drawing Tattoo designs. This was the first time I worked with this seriously, but I think the results were nice, I´ll fill my gallery with them in a while!

And my Job as Digital Art Teacher is something that I love.
Students are amazing, the School is awesome! The atmosphere is fantastic.
I can´t explain how, but as a Teacher I´m learning a LOT on Ânima.
Today they´re my Work mates, but all Teachers on that school will always be my teachers, for I´ll have always something to learn with them. On the past they teached me Art, and now they´re teaching me how to be a good professional.
I´m very thankful to Emerson, Marcelo, Gisela and Maurilio! I can´t fail them.

[ Ânima Academia de Arte ]

I also have to thank my GirlFriend for supporting me on this time of Professional growth, most of my strenght comes from her and there are no words to say how important She is for me! I love her very much!

Thanks for everything, Folks!!

[ Ragnarok Online ]
-------------------
Well, on last months my Guild Broke and I´m almost quiting the game, due to lack of time, and the server terrible situation.
The time I spent and the people I knew on this game were very important on my life, and there are lots of friends that I´ll never forget, so the time I played this game was absolutelly not a waste of time.

Thanks for everyone!!

Before my head explodes /o\

Well. Last time I updated the Journal was talking about Karma.
This month lots of things happened and I couldn´t run away from it.
Some people got hurt on a way I didn´t want to, but that was the price to have the peace everyone seeks.
For five years I tried to run away from the pain and sorrows.
For five years I tried to put Goals before Relationships even knowing that inside me that this was not my way.
Five wasted years. But maybe I´m back now.

The Concrete Jungle


News from the Real Life

Yeah right, I´m still alive!
And to be honest, the problem is that on latest times I´ve been too alive XD
Lot´s of Job oportunities appeared, so I´m kinda busy here with some ArtWorks that I couldn´t submit yet.
My Deviant got little dusty on the last weeks, but I´ll try to catch up.

I started my Job as Digital Art Teacher, and I love it! It´s simply awesome watch people learning and evolving at each class.
I also got some other Job about Tattoo Designs, so don´t be afraid if you see some of these on my gallery.
Some other jobs are just waiting for my Phone call, but I don´t want to get overloaded of work and blow up everything being unable to follow the Deadlines.

Another awesome oportunity I got here on DeviantArt:
For those who don´t Udon Entertainment, is the Company responsible for the amazing Artworks found on Capcom Products, Comics Like Agent X and some other bussiness.
They´re promoting Street Fighter Tribute Contest and I´ll try to submit some Art Pieces. If won´t make me part of the Crew, but at least they may know that I exist.

Does someone here belive on Karma ?
Every certain ammount of time, the same situation appears to me. Sometimes it´s different people involved, with some different details, but the major Issue is the same. If forces you to decide things that you try to avoid, not because you´re afraid of it, but because you don´t want to betray yourself.

What happened to me: Some time on my past, I was badly injured be other people.
After that, I promised to myself that I´d never hurt someone on the same way I was, but constantly oportunities to solve some of my problems appear only through hurting people on that same way. I want to be happy, but I also don´t want to hurt anyone.

It´s like being on that mouse cages, you run and run never going nowhere.

Well, There´s a long time I don´t submit any Journal entry here!!!
What can I say? Things started to happen way too fast and I couldn´t update here properly...

First of all: Happy New Year, Folks !!
Didn´t have the oportunity to say it to you, but I hope all your wishes come true ;D

2008 Started to me with lots of job oportunities, I feel like blessed, couldn´t be more awesome.
After quiting my old job, I luckly talked to some people I know and things just started to happen!!
I got about Two or Three Freelance jobs, and something new: I was invited to become a Digital Art Teacher!
That´s just it. I began this year with the chance to work on things that I really like, with people I really like. I´m very very grateful to everyone that gave me this oportunities.

The only problem (That is not actually a problem) is that for some time I won´t be able to submit too much entries on DeviantArt because almost everything I´ll draw about next two months will be exclusive to this Jobs.

Dreams coming true.
Nice jobs appearing, surrounded by awesome people. Now I just need to become filthy rich! Bwahahahaha /o\
Just kidding xD (But Still, An artist have some food needs)

Some things have changed this year to my guild and we started to grow with a new alliance, with the "Holy Thunder Force" Guild. Our teamwork is getting better everyday, and I think we´ll be able to hold or position on the server as a respected Alliance.

Another GREAT new:

Broadcast Translation: The Godly Item [Brisingamen] was given to [Den~], leader of [~Harmony] Guild.

So amazing!! This is almost an Year of hard working with this awesome people and this great Guild. This kind of item is just impossible to be done alone. I thank everyone that helped on doing it, some people spent a whole weekend on quests do close the 4 Godly Seals, I was really surprised with so much dedication.

Thank you, friends! Couldn´t do it without you!!

A Dread and Fugitive Mind


Before my head explodes /o\

Last week my computer broke for about two days, and I got a lot of time to think how needed this tool became. Without it, I had no news from the world, no music, no videos, no friends, no refference Images, and even no work!!
It´s more than two years that it became part of my life, and being forced to be Plugged out (Even for only two days) was a weird experience. Everything is kinda silent, lol.
I mean, even when you´re busy with some other thing, there´s always something you have to comment to someone and time runs like faster on the web, if you´re out for three days you get kinda outdated and people think you died or something!!

Some people will read it and say "You´re just a Computer-Geek-Freak-Webtard, get a life!!"
But It´s not like that. I work, I play music, I do phisical activities, I have friends and stuff, I have a social life... But at the same time, being connected is part of it too.
I don´t know how much people live like me, but sometimes I think about if this is a new lifestyle.

I mean, nowdays being plugged is the closest thing of a "Collective Intelligence" we have. I know 70% of the web is Junk information, but someone used to the internet can extract useful information in seconds! I just can´t remember the time I didn´t know about some subject and couldn´t learn about it within few seconds, with someone or on some website.
If you know how to use this tool, it´s just like you know everything, but actually not knowing everything. You just know where to look for the information you need and want.

I wonder how our information needs will be on a near future...

The Concrete Jungle


News from the Real Life

After a long time not updating the Journal, here I go again =p
I´ve been still submiting some Sketches, whenever my short time allows me.

Last weeks at work things were kinda complicated.
My boss got another bad customer, and we didn´t know if we were going to receive payment.
This client got involved on serious law problems and nobody know what was about to happen, and our only option to continue following the Schedulle.

So lame x_x
Some years ago, my teachers worked to this guy, and on that time he already had bad customers issues... I don´t know, maybe he doesn´t know how to choose reliable people to work for, and if he didn´t learn it on the last 6 years, we don´t know if he ever will...
Well, I´m counting the days to get out of here.

And this is the good part, on the Second half of January I´m heading to São Paulo (One of most important Brasilian cities) to get some interviews seeking more Illustration Work. Gonna need some luck.

MUSIC !!!


Did someone here listen to the lastest Nightwish works ???
What the hell is going on ???
I think everyone was expecting some visible changes on the band, but not like this. And Anette´s voice is NOT exactly the problem! I know, on a band image is a secondary thing, they should worry about songs first, but they didn´t need to use this kind of marketing.
Nightwish´s a good band, they don´t need to use the "Girls on mini-skirts = More Fans" =[
Well, see for yourself:
[link]

In my opinion they should give up this 'Female Vocal Nightwish trademark' and put only Marco as Lead Vocals. He´s great. Emppu´s riffs are also unique! Well, I don´t know what they´re trying to do x___x'

And good musical news too...
HOLY CHRISTZ0RD MATT BARLOW BACK ON ICED EARTH !!! *____________*
Greatest singer ever. I always knew he was going to come back someday.
If there´s some Brasil Tour, I´ll be there /o\
Gotta get ready D:!

But I couldn´t do it alone, thanks for all my friends that helped me, that was just beautiful!
And the Dead Branch party afterwards was the one of the funniest events ever, I hope everyone enjoyed xD

About our guild, We got a new Alliance with HolyThunderForce Guild, things are going well.
Harmony went trought 4 awesome sieges with high attendance (More than 50 people), but this last one was just awful >_>
Only 30 members came to play, kinda disapoint... We were doing such a great campaign, and suddenly everything goes wrong. Well, shit happens, gotta try harder next time u.ú

I don´t give much details, some facts on being a Guild Master are really uninteresting to be told, but if someone wants to gossip about it I´m always here ;p

This year is almost ending up, and I´m starting to think about the things I did and the things I couldn´t do.
Time´s running faster and faster as we grow older, I couldn´t acchieve half of what I wanted. Is that normal or am I wanting too much things ?

Anyway, it´s time to plan next Year, I hope I can see more opportunities and solve the main issues of my life.
