Hey there guys! How is everyone doing? Sorry for the lack of activity, but it's time for some big changes for the new year!

First of all, and after 10 years of arriving here, I've decided to part ways with deviantART. Just don't see the point of continuing to post here, with ever more choices available now, from Facebook to Instagram to Tumblr, etc. Those didn't exist back in 2005, if you remember!

This might come harsh if you truly enjoy the girls and might hesitate to use other social media, but it's a must if I want to take them forward. They simply can't be here alone, and proof of it were all the new people and projects I met last year. None, NONE of them would have arrived to my life had I sticked to dA the same way I've done for these last years. And while they might be somewhere here on dA, most prefer other sites, too. Sorry to say but we've yet to watch each other here... if they are.

But wait, that doesn't mean at all that the Friendsies are over! Not at all! That's why if you really love them, and haven't liked their FB page, now it's the best time to do so. Or to drop by the page, like once or twice per week, if you already liked it. Yes, best if you show up there: don't rely on your news feed alone or you WILL miss most, if not all, of their posts! Especially if you've never liked or commented anything. And don't let Spanish put you off either, because everything is bilingual.

And finally, I won't deactivate this account. Not everything will make it to other profiles, especially the older (pre-2009 or 2010) stuff, so this will still be the place to go if anyone is desperate to see a full portfolio. I might still sneak from time to time to hoard faves and such, or for the odd journal in case something big and awesome happens to them, but not for new Friendsies drawings.

Finally, as of following you outside dA, if you also have your art on a FB page, please let me know to check it out and like it. That would make it easier to keep track of what you do, too.

See you soon on FB for their first drawing of 2015! There's already a preview of it since last Saturday...
