The title started with the above quote. It's a simple quote but has a great message. Dreams come true if you act on them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't recall the original motivation for starting this blog. It might have been from the expectation that an artist must be posting work 24/7 to prove he/she is an artist. Perhaps it was to prove to myself that I'm an artist. Or maybe it was to add to my chances of getting a job. Whatever the case may be it doesn't matter any longer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For some time I've thought about taking this site down. My mind is in a different place now. I still draw but not like I used to. Drawing is more personal for me now. I still do my own 3d work but with varying reasons. I don't feel the urge to prove anything in these mediums any longer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This blog will end as of this post. I removed all the old posts because they no longer represent who I am and what I intend to be in this life. I enjoyed it for the small time that I particpated in blogging my artwork. I never got much out of it as much as I did seeing others posting their work. Although I'm grateful for those that stopped by my blog and took the time to comment. Thank you. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ending this blog doesn't mean I won't be creating original art or being productive. Those close to me know I have plenty of creative outlets. But what it does mean is that I can move on. With the end of this blog I can wake up again.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2304885659865593600-6706909849379233826?l=tynanart.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tynanart.blogspot.com/feeds/6706909849379233826/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2304885659865593600&amp;postID=6706909849379233826' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2304885659865593600/posts/default/6706909849379233826'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2304885659865593600/posts/default/6706909849379233826'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tynanart.blogspot.com/2010/12/adieu.html' title='Adieu'/><author><name>John</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10607956752811661060</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e293/BingoBiffulo/meAVATAR.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
