Here's to a successful year for all you strive to accomplish.

Be yourself. There are a lot of bullshit people in this world who are insecure with themselves and project their insecurity onto others. Folks that sweat destructive criticisms and spit toxicity. 

Now I don’t mean people who simply disagree with your views, but folks who actively try to ruin your good time unwarranted. Fuck those people, to be frank. Don't let other people steal your sunshine. But remember to stay respectful and tactful with your encounters, because you don’t just represent yourself but others who engage in the activity or community that you partake in. 

Please do not feel ashamed of your work. We all start somewhere. Whether you be an artist, animator, game designer, filmmaker, voice actor, editor, etc. SFW or NSFW, be proud of the work you put out because that is an extension of you. Art is art.

Be open to constructive critique some people genuinely want to help you thrive in your chosen path. As for destructive critique, a lot of people are simply jealous that they are not where you are yet or that you have success. Despite ignoring the destructive, one should still pay attention to the critique because it grounds one in reality.

Those of you who have been at this for however long whether you have 10 or 10k fans. People want to see your work, that is why they followed in the first place. That’s obvious, but sometimes we need to be reminded of things like that. We are all creators, and a lot of us are in the same fields. So you will always feel like an imposter. But that’s okay, you’ll feel like that but that does not take away from the work that YOU put out, that YOU made because it's YOURS. We all have our ways of doing things and that is what makes our stuff ours. 

So get out there and follow your dreams, do what makes you happy and get good at it, treat others the way you’d like to be treated, be humble, be kind, be helpful, be respectful, be honest with yourself and others, live your life, and don’t let the negativity of others douse your burning fire. I have been on this site for almost 10 years and I am so proud of the folks I’ve watched grow and the folks who I have recently discovered. All of you are so incredibly talented and it brings me genuine happiness to be a part of such an immensely talented community. 

I have been struggling with so much in the past years, and feel like I have lost all traces of optimism and hope after these last few months. But I don’t want to be defeated. We all grow up eventually, but inside we stay that kid with a passion. No matter what people say or what life throws at you, you’re still that kid. So stay with you.

Rough week. But I just gotta stay optimistic and motivated. All the new art helps. So many new talented accounts it's awesome. Keep on pursuing your dreams, everyone!

Still here...Happy I still get to see so much amazing art and see new artists get featured every day. Keep up the great work everyone!

Life has thrown me some severe curveballs these past years, but this year...this month just threw something at me that I couldn't have imagined being prepared for. Despite imma keep on kickin' I enjoy doing this too much to give up. Keep pushing for the things you are passionate about and for those who are passionate about those things.

It always seems like once I get started, something else comes along and pulls me away. Rotten luck is what I have, but I have still been attempting to create despite of. I just want to make more.

Thought I’d try something new. I’d like to improve on my art and include my writing as well, I really would like to grow and get better in all of my facets of interest. Myster S (Mr. S) is more than a handle as a lot in my life especially recently, has changed quite a bit and I want to match that energy. Excited to do more of what I love and share it!

Been MIA the passed few years, been drawing just ain’t post shit. Been getting in and staying in my head too long, imma try posting more.

 Small break from my hiatus to just thank you guys. I am on the best art this month page! This is so cool I never thought I would ever get on the popular page let alone the best of the month page. Thank you guys so, so much. I will be back soon and I have been drawing, trying to improve (mostly on my style). I also have some sketches I would like to digitize and make pieces out of. Anyways, gotta get back to studying. I'll catch you guys later, stay you 

Holy Shit wasn't expecting this. I don't know if this is a big deal or not, but it's hella big to me.
