Hello again friends! Yes I AM alive, shocking as
it may be. Seems like all I was doing in DA was
just favoriting artwork from others while
completely ignoring my own "work."

Needless to say, I think it's well past time for
a much needed change. Now it goes without saying
that I'm not much of an artist. Although there
is nothing that is preventing me from learning
or taking the time to learn, I find that it most
likely is not my strongest suit at this current
time.

Writing is more my passion, yet I haven't
written anything or posted anything on here.
Not because I have any fear of copyright
infringement or in anyone stealing it mind you,
I'm just somewhat of a perfectionist, and find
that I'm always re-doing or changing what I've
previously written. Kinda lame especially if
you have readers and they go back to your work
to find new additions or things completely
removed.

So what is this new art direction I'm taking
then? Simply put, myself.

Confused? Allow me to elaborate. Outside of
DA, amongst my personal life, specifically
around my friends, I am known as somewhat of
a pervy and creepy individual.

Also mean, as shown in the one Motivational
poster I have. I think you all know which one.

Aside from all that, I very much purposely
embellish and comedically put myself on a
high pedestal, and act very much like a total
narcissist. Mind you it's all an act, and
they find it severely enjoyable. My antics
as they were, revolve around me adding myself,
either perversely or creepy-like, into
pre-existing media.

Furthermore, each narcissistic act has it's
own character, a twisted or unusual version
of my own self. For example, my "dark" side
is known as "The Shroud" (You'll also notice
much references from pre-existing media,
again, part of my schtick as it were to
egotistically put myself in it and make it
"better".) and another is known as "Hollow
Eric", which I'm sure you Bleach fans can
recognize.

So how will these new art be made? Well I won't
deny that I will be drawing some, but the vast
majority will be done in some form of photoshop.

The purpose in all this? Simply put, I enjoy
entertaining others, and I find that the crazy
ego-maniac can entice a lot of funny-bones,
and the more random and weird, the better. And
what better way than to watch some dude toot
his own horn while making fun of things along
the way?

I'm sure this probably is NOT the most original
idea on the internet, much less DA. Still, it is
worth a shot, and moreso, I think I will have
a lot of fun doing it. Bear with me if it sucks,
I still have a lot to learn, and so I welcome
any and all tips regarding my new approach and
art.

Furthermore, let this new crusade of art be
known as,

"The Marvelmalleneous Adventures of Eric"
