# About me
I'm a musician (sort of), photographer (not much anymore) and art-lover (for the most part) living in Colorado.I've been on dA for over 13(!) years now, and by participating here I have learned more about the fundamentals and aesthetics of art than I have from any art class. I'm here in hopes of improving my craft.

Thanks for the llama
I knew a llama once. At least I thought I knew him. I mean, how well can anyone really know anyone, much less a llama. With their air of mystery and thinly veiled contempt. It’s hard. But I digress.
His name was Kevin. But for reasons I will never understand, he would only ever answer to Albert. Identity issues aside, things started out okay. The usual introductory sniffing and sneezing went well, despite his allergies, but then things started going downhill during the ritual licking phase of the pleasantries. We pushed through. And had it not been for the spitting, we might have even been able to make it work, but alas, after just 3 seconds of bittersweet brotherhood, we finally decided to part ways. It’s kind of sad, when you think about it. Spitting seems like such an innocent thing to fight over, but he was pretty adamant that I should stop and that was just never going to happen. We might have overcome that issue, but Kevin, like all llamas, was very competitive. First came the stench competitions. Then it was belching contests. And lastly, a painstaking count to see which one was hairier. You can clearly see why our relationship was doomed. The poor fellow was a bit of a sore loser.
So he snuck out, taking with him a failed friendship, an obliviously optimistic dread of the future, and my sixth favorite toothbrush. Now that he is gone, I can honestly say, it's for the best. He was too much of a chick magnet anyway and who needs that drama?
Full disclaimer, as Kevin’s official biographer, a position of which he blackmailed me into (don’t ask), I’ve been instructed to inform you about his ongoing series. The journey starts here with The Kevin Chronicles - Chapter 1, and this gallery contains the rest. You should check it out.
*End of cue card*
And don't worry, they're pretty short.
No pressure though, only if you want.

Super casual sexism there dude.

Yeah, I can see that. Sorry.
Considering the complete absurdity of the whole story, I just assumed that people wouldn't take any aspect of it seriously. That's kind of the point.

Absurd sexism is still sexism though. I thought the story was cute until that line.

Thanks for the llama. Got one for you too.
I'm not nearly as gifted a photographer as you are. Do know a thing or two about that creative spark to weak to catch fire though.
Can't seem to find the one thing that ignites me, not writing, music, drawing or photography. May just be that pesky mid-life crisis thing I got going.
Anywho, hope you find a way around the speed bump and get back on track doing whatever feels right for you at the moment, Shelagnoa

Thanx for the llama!
I hope that someday, you'll be able to pick up a camera again and find what sparked that initial interest in photography. You have taken some incredibly beautiful photos <)

For sure <). I know what it's like to temporarily lose interest in a hobby but eventually, something inspires you and ultimately recovers that lost interest. You'll find inspiration somewhere, just remember to keep an eye out as you never know when it'll sneak up you
