I may not have been posting often on these other platforms lately due to my continued full time employment, but I do post there more often than I do here, and I have more exciting updates lined up soon as SYNTHESIS' production ramps up. While both Twitter and Tumblr will have a lot of the same updates, I use my Tumblr for more lengthy posts and article-like submissions aside from art and life stuff.

• I plan on creating an ArtStation or Behance soon to have a more traditional project-based log of my work, and I will post links to those on Twitter/Tumblr when I do. Lastly, don't forget my work will always be at my website, ORIANART, where you'll also find an updated hub of links for social media connections, including my formal contact address which is matt@orianart.com.
  

It has been years since I've returned to use DeviantART and I think it's time to throw in the towel. DA's cumbersome layout and usability leaves a lot to be desired compared to other more streamlined platforms out there, to the point that this place is unfortunately just an additional chore to upkeep after other places (and I don't like doing chores.) There are other criticisms that keep me using other platforms instead, but I won't go into that here. Instead, for any of you who are still hanging around, let me just say a big

--- THANK YOU ---

to everyone who has followed me and supported me through these earlier years. (DA says I've been a member for almost 15 years but let's be fair I haven't really been around for the last 4.) The support helped me a lot through college and the years after. I promise that I have great things in store if you stick with me beyond DA.

I'll be leaving the account officially at the end of the year.
