To update people my being alive or dead, I pretty sure I fit just below the border to being dead. Reason being is because I haven't updated or submitted anything new in months...Many sorries all around. Life for me has been running late nights fueled by caffinee. Sleep is nearly non existat to me these days. This very much cuts into my time for drawing...I think its getting so bad, that my hand for drawing is starting to diminish. I tried and tried to get back into the muse, but everything I've done has been...well to put bluntly, a failure. I feel like I just came full circle back to where I started as a beginner in drawing. I think it will take me some time to get back into drawing...all the progress I made thus far seems to have been in vaine. I blame Caffinee for this...but yet it has kept me saine. >.< Anyways, will keep trying to put something up worth your eyes. -.-;; Till then keep hope!

Now, I really am not one for tim burton. Nothing against him or his brilliance, just not a worshipper of le' mental weirdness. On the contrary here me say, that god can't keep that man's imagination at bay. Dark, humor it interpreted to me. Again another aspect tim reminded me.
Bottom line?
Go~

See~

Heh, here I am. Here I was. Here is where I can be. I never used this Journal to express who I am as a person so on this page I shall do just that. Cause right now I don't think any of yous who watch my art even know what kinda person I am. O.o; To you, I'm the guy who draws pictures that you seem to like. XD
A mystery behind transparent curtains in retrospects. I don't know, maybe you all do have some Idea of what kinda person I am as an Artist.

*takes a deeeeep breathe, then coughs under the strain* *Ack!* <cough!>

Erk! Sorry. >.< Gotta have air to speaken my mind here.@.@

Alrighty, here we go. Koomji Tsurakashi on the observation table! Muwahahaa!

Heh, well as you may or may not know my real name isn't Koomji Tsurakashi. Yes, people it's true. Koomji Tsurakashi IS an alias I go by. My name is Derrick Curley and I live in Arizona. >:3
So, nice to meet you all I suppose! XD

I am considered by many of my peers to be tall...which in my defense I just think they are just too short. >.< But then that can be an argument not in my favor. T-T Heh, anyways I like Drawing in the Anime style, cause well...I like anime. O.o; To be accurate I don't like...LIKE, LOVE, WORSHIP anime if that was what you where thinking...Noooo, I take a more neutral stance on Anime. I as an artist can draw a wide varity of styles. Just depends what the mood, or what the situation calls for. Here on my DeviantArt page here, I try to devote it to primarily Anime pencil/line drawings. I can draw and had/have drew landscapes, buildings, vehicles, and all the goodies that go with that. Heh heh, as that may be a wide varity there is one thing I know I lack as an artist...which is color. -.-;

I rarely get to do anything, rather rarely get to finish anything in color. Thus, my skills or sense of colors are lacking. >.< Yes I am lazy...HEY! An artist can be lazy at times RIGHT?? ...Right...?? >.<;

Eh heh...well that aside. I'd like to thank you all for taking the time to browse through my evolving gallery here on DevianArt. :3 Me praise you all my life for doing so, prolly won't fulfill the time I have stolen from your lives. >.<!! I honestly will try to get alot of my drawings that I have here finished for you all to view. I been planning to help a friend of mine start a little comic he wanted to do. So, that collaboration has taken a good part of free time I use to have. So, meh...bah to the time for not giving me more allowance to get everything done! *sniff*

Whheeeoooo~ I got side tracked there. O.o; I forgot the purpose of this journal, which was to introduce who I am as a person. ^^ I do have a sense of Humor as you can see, and I do like a joke here and there. I am patient as a person, and tolerant of many things. ^^ Some times people miss understand that to make it seem like I am going to break like a dam one day and murder them all... O.o; So they kinda stay away from me cause of my patience with them. I really am not one to get angry for non sense, and I rarely do show my anger or take it out on people. I guess I do have a good self control as a person. :3
Which is good, cause sometimes people say I am a good person to talk to at times? But if I would describe myself, I would say that I am not a judgmental person. I kinda do judge the quality of my art work, but that’s a different story all together. Chivalry, (if I spelt that right o.o is something I like to practice at times, because it's well...a good sense of practice in manners, and being a good person in my opinion...
Yes, I try to be polite when the time comes to it. Though among people who I know I don't put that as a priority. I like talking to people and sharing ideas, with them. Chatting with peeps is good way to learn about the times. Best people to talk to is Old Folks because they have soooooooooooo much wisdom in their words and stories. I usually like to spend hours talking to my grandparents just to learn from them. Heh.

I guess that will be it for now...I'm getting tired, and running outta ideas. >.< I dunno if you have questions just ask and I will answer them I guess...But anyways. Hi, to you all again. ^^ and thanks for your comments and suggestions on my Art work here on DeviantArt. ^^

Koomji Tsurakashi, (Derrick Curley), signing out! >:3

Whooo, first time in a long time I written in my Journal here. Say the last entry I had in this was what? 2005? Nearly two years ago? Hahahaa, yes I been a slacker for that long. XD Well...not too much of one, but yes some. I can't deny the fact. Anyways back to business here. I been browseing my gallery here on this page, and it came to me that my style has...well been changing over the years. I mean it is starting to vary as if each of these drawings I have submitted really isn't me. Well, doesn't seem like me at all. It was disturbing, being it seems that I never drew these drawings at all. Given how I draw now. I don't know I just saw it as I sifted through my gallery and some of the few who I watch. See other people's galleries are consistant with the person doing the art. They have a refined taste which is like thier personal signiture in the movement of the art. Sadly the drawings I done vary so much that it seems like I lost that little aspect. Kinda throws me in a melstorm a bit. I dunno, maybe I'll just start putting my name on my drawings to pick up the lack thereof among other things. Heh, well thats my thoughts I had today. (my brain hurts...)

what is life and how is that created? what purpose is there for a death to life? if we dont fully understand life then we will never understand death. its like we make up reason for the unreasonalbe with life in death. to comfort the fact that we as living human beings will never understand that which compels us in the end, or in the begging. what came before? what comes after? why think of the alpha and the omega when both those can be sum'd up to how we feel now. life can be life as it is, its different for every one. which make it change and unique, as with death. something we must do as our now comes to birth, and death. we should live life for now and enjoy what we have, will have, or will leave behind for the ones we love. to be remebered for living a life as we saw it is the greatest glory and the best comfort for someone to remeber your life.
