Critical Assessment and Aftermath of Art School
This is an updated account on how things are going years after having left art school, the effects it's had on me, and my personal thoughts on attending. My views here aren't wholly different than the few rants I've had on the subject in the past, but it's one I believe I have to continue talking about to assist others in making the right decisions for themselves and their future path. (I should also mention that this is the viewpoint of an american in America.)
It's become increasingly clear to me over the last year that out of my 25 years on this Earth, there's only one decision I ever truly regret: and that was going to art school. Now, there's a good chance that I may not be saying this had I attended a different school, but there's no way to ever know, so what I'm really saying is "I regret going to the school I chose, not school in general." I feel as though I was let down by my school. I held up my end of the bargain (some $80~$90

Biweekly feature vol.1Hello everyone, I'm very happy to present the very first of the many
feature journal. I'll be doing this every 2 weeks so this will allow the
feature art work to get a decent amount of views.
The feature journal is where I'll be posting some art works from artist
on DA that you guys suggested that don't have many views or favorites
and that deserve more. For the feature journal I have picked suggestions
for different category to make it more diverse.
Again, thank you allfor posting suggestions in my previous journal, sadly space is limited
so I will not be able to feature all the suggestions.

For the next feature,
If you have a piece from an artist that you really like and feel like
that they need some exposure, wither its photography, Crafting,
Painting, Drawings,etc please post below. Please make sure that they are
legit (not stolen art) and has below 1,000 faves.
without any more delay Lets get started : )

Merry Christmas to all my friends, supporters and family. Have a great holiday and open a lot of presents for me

Usually we have a lot of snow in Germany but this year it's just too damn hot and actually I walked around in a T-shirt today...what a crazy climate!
Working on some pictures at the moment which I took last week with our 7th grade in ski camp. We had a blast and there are some great shots among the pictures.
Greetings and

happy holidays - Kris

20 questions for you!Hey hey heyy, I'm kinda bored and wanted to entertain you with a journal!
I'm quite curious of what kind of persons are watching me, so I'm going to write few random questions for you. Feel free to answer them on this journal! :--) If you find some of the questions too personal, just skip them!
1. What is your favourite band(s) and/or song(s)?:
2. Who is your idol(s)? (Does not have to be an artist.):
3. What is your favourite food(s)?:
4. What is your favourite drink(s)?:
5. Are there any IRL friends of yours here on dA? (You can put their icons or names if you want.):
6. What is your favourite animal(s)?:
7. What's your favourite/dearest dream you've seen while asleep?:
8. What's your favourite colour(s)?:
9. Are you on Facebook? (No need to tell your name of course.):
10. Where do you come from? (Country or mainland.):
11. Do you have a favourite country(s) for its culture? (Other than your home coun

Gorgeous doll photosSome of these are old, apologies for that. But if something hits me, it hits me. I looked for photos that had mood, movement, concept and/or impact. I have to say that I'm not a fan of two or more photos together in the same image, but I couldn't avoid all of them (the first photo of all multi-images were the ones that caught my attention).
This took me a while. As I've said, I don't follow other doll photographers/owners that much, so I spent a lot of time doing searches for photos I've seen sometime but didn't remember whose they were. And another good chunk of time just browsing through bjd photos and people's galleries. A lot of good ones are still missing, but not all of them are in DA and some have already been removed. It's been a while since I was active in this hobby outside of my own stuff.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy these as much as I did.

LOOPERSSo... anyone else watched this movie? Because, in my opinion, it's simply a MASTERPIECE. Best movie I've seen in a long time (and YES, includding AVENGERS).
I won't spoil but feel free to drop me my opinion.
I think I'll be writting a proper review asap because it deserves it. OMG. I'm totally speechless right now.

Batman ain't gonna save youSo, almost at the anniversary of the Utoya clean-up, there was a mass shooting in Colorado, USA, at the premier of the "Dark Knight Rises" Batfuck movie by a neuroscience drop-out James Holmes.

I have to say about this 2-3 things, primarily.
First thing – finally someone used a fucking bulletproof vest and ballistic armor for this sort of an activity. The thing that always sort of baffled me, is why no-one uses any self-protection. A bulletproof vest, ballistiic helmet, collar and crotch protection, anti-shock kneepads and self-made composite body plating made from something like Protech steel-n-fiberglass plates isn't THAT expensive. A police-grade tactical vest in the US and Russia, either anti-smallarms or anti-rifle, costs roughly between $1,500-$3000, and the plating isn't that expensive too.
So – good strategic

tumblr sketchblogHey there!
I got one of those infamous tumblrs quite a while ago, thinking I wasn't gonna use it much ... by now it's become pretty much the only place I post any stuff at all so I thought I'd finally link to it ---> Here you go
Sketches & doodles, no reblogs except for occasional music. Would be smashin' if you would swing by : D
cheers!

TumblrI have finally clawed my way out from under a rock and made one. No thanks to ~DarkKitsunegirl
Now I've made it I have no idea what to do with it. So I'll throw it in your faces. http://indecisivebrit.tumblr.com/
As with everyone else on this godforsaken website, it's where I'll post my sketches. And chances are it might be where I move to permanently.
