Hey guys! I don't know if anyone reads these or truly gives a flying fuck, but just in case, I wanted to drop you all a note to say that I'll be posting some new material soon--additional installments of "Scenes from the Life," as well as a new chapter for "The Paper Man." Sorry for the long delay; I know it's been ages since my last update. It's been a hell of a summer, what with graduation, moving, and adjusting to a new job, but hopefully I'll be back in business asap!

Also, I'm game for taking requests, if anyone out there's got a good idea they'd like to see me incorporate into an installment of "Scenes from the Life." Please don't be shy--I'm thinking that having some actual obligations will get me drawing more, even if it's just silly Sherlock doodles :)

THIS IS AN ADVENTURE.
Artist | Professional | Varied
United States
O me! O life!...of the endless questions of these recurring;
Of the endless trains of the faithless, of cities fill'd with the foolish;
Of myself forever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?)
Of eyes that vainly crave the light--of the objects mean--of the struggle ever renew'd;
Of the poor results of all--of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me;
Of the empty and useless years of the rest--with the rest in me intertwined;
The question, O me! so sad, recurring--What good amid these, O me, O life?

Answer:
That you are here--that life exists and identity;
That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse.

"Oh Me! Oh Life"
Walt Whitman

Oh wow, thanks! It's always awesome to hear nice comments like that. I'm trying to work on Chapter V now but it might take some time; I have some family stuff going on and I'm trying to get accepted at a new job... Anyways, I'll be sure to have it up as soon as it's finished!
