Well there are a couple of reasons...I have actually managed to score a couple of jobs, so that takes priority, the more I draw the faster ideas come to my head so the more I need to get them out. My priorities in drawing have changed, they are the same but expressed differently. For this painting it was about form, composition, value, depth, clarity, accuracy. Lately I still pursue that, but color is of most importance. Where before I was heavily influenced by japanese manga style and classical wastern art. My role model then was Degas, and now I am studing Mattise. And there is also no moneys from drawing bloodlines and I need thats to live 
So you see when I draw bloodlines is pure love., but lets say I want to practice a new techniqure or theory I turn to the fan art and its a compromise. Yeah the idea of teaming up with another artist is something I've always wanted to try, so if you have a collab in mind I am game. I never unistall the game, it got me trough some some of those difficult periods in my life so I am going to be stuck with it forever it seems... and I don't mind at all 
Yeah being commited and dedicated to drawing at all times is what will separate being able to live from drawing or not, can't be a flake, I would have been upset with her. What was the idea?
By the way, I've just finished my Jeanette fanart! YAY!
Are you an art student or do you teach by yourself?
About my ex-collaboratrice, well, I wasn't upset, I do understand she was in a busy part of her life but it's just that I don't have that much time for painting and my envies come and go quickly so eventually I got bored of waiting updates. Too bad. That being said, her initial sketches proved that our styles couldn't match so I have no regret. The idea was to paint a guy in the middle of a toreador and a malkavian girl in a bar. I liked the idea of a poor guy trapped between two girls hitting on him and not knowing the dangerous place he is.

Yeh I teach myself I guess although I learn everything from others, I just don't go to a school. Hmm I am not too draw to that idea. I saw in your gallery the Dansel one, and Deb of night and those where cool, your new Jeanette one is great too. For some reason I've never actually drawn them interacting with non game characters, I like to play with the realation they might have amonst themselves, eccept for the malkie, shes more like a muse to me.
Yeah, I saw that. Actually Malkavian was the first character I had thanks to the questionnary. Never regreted it, lol!
