OK So somewhat suddenly and mildly unexpectedly, and I have closed our site, FlirtyPhoenix.com. After many long talks we decided for various reasons that the site had run it's course, and we chose not to renew the webspace. More than likely we will opt for a new personal site rather than a group site, if anything. Between her modeling pictures and my art, we aren't exactly at a loss for content, just rethinking the process and approach. Just taking a break and regrouping and gonna see what we come up with. We had deliberated on this very notion when we decided to open Phoenix, so the idea stems from there. I am still gonna post up shots from her last several sets. (Gee I should really get around to doing that, huh?)

I'm playing with some ideas about coloring some pieces I've seen around here, I'm all jazzed with some fan-art collabo's which I am gonna start working on... I've been horridly behind in doing much of anything, and if the spark is starting to ignite, I don't wanna lose it. I haven't picked up a pencil in AGES, and am dying to shake this drawing ennui that I have been feeling forever. I need to get reinvigorated... maybe without the site taking up all nighters several times a month I can shake off the dust from my sketchbook and get something down. Usually when this happens, I have some weird genesis of a new phase in my approach that I feel is a greater step forward in my craft, so I pray the same is true again. I hate these droughts, it's a horrid thing. I can't call myself an artist if I don't create art... and I hate not having anything to show for recent work. So here's hoping I can get back on track and actually *DO* something. I will continue with the photography for cuz I absolutely love what we create together. Now I need to push that drive in my own direction as well and bang out something crazy.

Shooting for the next level... there's a ammo pack and a power-up out there somewhere...
