Original plan was to purge and deactivate this account, but I am currently researching it's effectiveness a a piggy back to promote my FineArtAmerica prints account. In my nearly 2 decades of this account existing on deviantART I have never sold a single print, even more I've heard from many who have that any profit is very mini-cue. That being said to promote sales I focus on my FineArtAmerica, however I am researching to see if this lf deviantART can be used as a promotional tool. It all depends on average number of views. If the views are too low and I find it a waste of time I'll just deactivate and move on, if I find it useful I'll return but not as active in the community as I use to be. I have found other mediums to be much more vibrant and reliable than deviantART.
Still miss me here? I see 500 watchers are still even in tact more than 5 years after I left deviantART! I still stop by out of curiosity, but it appears that to me deviantART has only become even less useful.
Meanwhile if you want to see what I've been doing here's the place!
It's been nearly 3 years since any of you have heard from me, and I want to inform you of a spot I moved onto.

I am wanting to boost my views and sales and I have sold more prints than the 0 I sold in nearly a decade of being active here on dA.

For those of you who miss me here since I decided to ditch this platform in 2016 feel free to follow those pages! The odds of me returning to dA are sadly almost 0, but I am hoping to use the rest of this pages existence to forward to progress to my new pages. Eventhough I left dA I did get my start here as a 15 year old. But the future is now and sadly many much better platforms have surpassed dA.
As for this account it will remain abandoned probably until I et the time to purge images that were not documented as saved then finally deactivated.
