GENERAL UPDATE

Hello there, friends!

I have a couple of things to share with you, actually.

1) As you may have noticed during last two months, the process of accepting/gods forbid declining your artwork was quite slow and evaluating even slower.
I temporarily allowed my day job to dominate my life, but since it's brought me nothing but headaches and suffering, I'm coming back to my artistic side of personality, so to speak. So, it should go smoothly again from now on.

2) I would like to call upon new contributors for our group. This time I'd like to attract only experienced artists, mature people, who have many things to share with us and they want to. Anyone who qualifies for these criteria will be warmly welcomed in our Masters inner sanctum.

3) Since several individuals felt it was necessary to share with us their whole artistic galleries in one day, we are back to 1 drawing per day rule.  I don't like this rule, but I refuse to decline 40 drawings again from the same artist any time soon.

4) The curious question for the Masters of Graphite no.1 went rather well. It's given us a better overview of the general maturity of our membership base. Please let me shortly share the results with you:
38 people out of 53 are younger than 30 year old.
8 people out of 53 are between 30-39 year old scale.
7 people out of 53 are between 40-49 year old scale.
From these results you can see that we have a solid foundation of young promising artists, but there are also elder, more experienced individuals among us.
Yes, this is just a little sample to make any reliable conclusions out of, but I'd like to thank to those who participated anyway.

5) Onward we go then, and I'd like to introduce you a brand new Curious Question for the Masters of Graphite no. 2.
It's much more interesting than the first one and I'd like to kindly appeal to your curiosity and ask you to spend two minutes of your time by reading the question and answering it, alternatively leaving a comment beneath the voting window if no answer suits you.
The question itself and answers you may find here: nikakrae.deviantart.com/

All right, guys. Thank you for your attention. Let us go back to our heaps of graphite and scrolls of paper then.
