What can I say – life often gets in the way and you have to prioritize what’s important over everything else. My updates have been sporadic at best this summer due in large part to a number of things – but mainly travel, work and health concerns. I’m sorry for not being able to provide on a routine basis as of late – I’m hoping this will all change once the school year rolls around and there is a sense of normalcy in life that has been lacking for a long time.
Enough apologies – updates are what’s important right now! Check out this cool stuff and let me know what you think!

With the upcoming school year looming closer, idrawdigital will be looking to update more frequently with drawing tutorials, featured artists and many more items from my personal portfolio. The back-to-school special is coming soon…
