Sorry for my language use. I've been sick this past week as of typing this journal. Forgive me and bear with me.
I didn't know that I was appreciated as an "artist" for a long time. I didn't know that people liked me for me and my artwork for being artwork. I apologize for misinterpreting everything as a skill and popularity contest. Once I lost track, I worried too much about making sure my anatomy was okay and not my artwork. I apologize if it ever felt like I wasn't appreciative of any feedback.
I want to say that I apologize if I ever, EVER worried anyone about anything.
++++++++++++++++++++++
I planned on holding off saying this but if the current inactivity didn't show it already, I've kinda taken a semi-hiatus of sorts. I don't feel like an "artist" so I have taken a break from lots of activity online so I could focus on just me and my artwork. It hasn't been going well as I've been stricken with confidence issues etc. along the way and my illness or whatever that was messed me up this week so I have to start over again.
I really wish I could try to get back to the times or mindset, whatever, where I was an artist. You know, where I would draw, scan, edit digitally with SAI shading, and then call it a day. I really had something going then. Same for graphite but for the summer, graphite has trouble sticking to paper so I've tried ink kinda.

9th dA Anniversary (for this account)
I've held this account ~Dark-SpectrumDS (https://www.deviantart.com/dark-spectrumds) for almost exactly nine years today. I've technically been on deviantART for about 11 years with my first account being this old thing: :iconDark-Spectrum:.
I don't feel too different though. I actually miss the days back in 2011-2013 when it was more lively (and I felt that I meant something to the community). Nowadays, it's way different especially with inactive accounts and people moving away as a whole (at least people I know).
I wasn't going to have any time to draw anything commemorating this (not like it's necessary) because I have to work the rest of the day away (not art-related). But I
Some Updates
I sincerely apologize for the lack of activity as of late yet again. I'm just going to discuss updates.
First off, I'm a bit confused at the sudden influx of views I got around Easter/April 1st to April 2nd. It was about 50 pageviews or so when normally I've been getting about 10-20 thanks to my inactivity. Did people think I was gonna draw a bunny picture or something for Easter showcasing my guys? That's cute but not at the moment. I've been busy (and I've been inexplicably sick but it's probably worsening anxiety).
Oh yeah, and other than that, I've been further developing my characters and I've done over 10,000 of those little gesture d
Thanks for b-day wishes + Updates
Hello, I apologize for the long absence. I still won't consider myself to be "back" if you will. However, thank you for the birthday wishes! I didn't really expect any after my inactivity and that's okay. If you didn't know, I just had a birthday December 7th (I also like to refer to it as Pearl Harbor Day).
I probably won't fully be back until I can create something I'd not be embarrassed to upload. I've taken a break from social media communication cold-turkey because I desperately needed one and it allowed me to think about what's more important. I've still been deciding on how I'd like to organize my accounts better either for artwork, p
DeviantART 8th Anniversary + Updates
Hello everyone old and new! I SINCERELY apologize for the absence/limited activity. (Would've been back earlier if dA hadn't any issues with my 3-month membership rebilling so I apologize for having nothing fancy...ever.) I do, however, have to mention that today marks the 8th anniversary of this account's creation. Oh, and please don't misunderstand. I've actually been on deviantART since 2007 so this year also marks my 10th anniversary here altogether.
My original account: ~Dark-Spectrum (https://www.deviantart.com/dark-spectrum) (Please excuse the old art styles. I was 14-15 back then.)
I'm not sure if I will ever get around to making any commemorative works. I can't make an

I used to feel the same way so I can relate, I hope you feel better and can enjoy drawing again, cause I know how that feels. ;;
