Hi Paul. I thought I'd drop by to return the visit you made to my gallery. I feel badly that it took me so long to get here, but real life has kept me busy. From reading some of the comment replies here and in your Wyvern library, I know you can understand how that goes. Your dragons are really interesting. They're a lot more realistic than mine (even my newest ones, that are currently in the queue). I also want to thank you for the support you gave me when some mean-spirited children found their way to my comments block. I appreciate it.

This is how my Elfwood bio should look. Elftown has become a much better place now, though there will always be some problems (just like anywhere else). Let's just say the drama's 99% gone, and I have no desire to be a drama queen. ;-)

Anyway:

IN LOVING MEMORY OF JUDITH ANN DOYLE (MY MOTHER)---12/12/44 - 6/30/03 RIP
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Paul J. Doyle, 31 October 1973---<br> I'm married and have a son. I have been working on my novel, artwork, and have been dealing with a lot of real-life stuff lately. Currently (In addition to everything else) I am researching ways to get buy a first time house, despite numerous financial setbacks for my family in the past year.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Elftown is starting to get more art scene-friendly again. Useless mindless cyber-turds are starting to emigrate from Elftown to Elfpack, which makes many of Elftowners more comfortable to be on there now However, I will never again be quite as active on Elftown as I used to be. Some really unsavory things happened there which I cannot completely forgive. Besides, I have a real life. Elftown has many good things, but word to the wise: as an Elfwood artist or an Elfwood writer (or both) you have no more say on Elftown---the very community originally designed for YOU, the Elfwooder---than some brainless disruptive turd or fourteen year old cybersluts who belong in an AOL chat room.<br><br> Anyway, enough of that. I will add a lot of new pictures in the next few months. Please understand I can't put my novel here, because I'm concerned about copyright issues. There's also just too much violence, profanity and sex to get anywhere past Elfwood moderators. <br><br>Anyway, that's where I've been lately o_o<br><br>ART EXPERIENCE: I have only been drawing actively since June of 2003, around the time my mother passed away (a much better coping mechanism than alcohol, tobacco, television or drugs, in my opinion.) I am slowly getting better. I have a huge amount to learn. I have no pretentions of my art abilities. They aren't bad, but they aren't great, either. Keep that in mind if you are thinking about a request or a commission. <br><br>WRITING EXPERIENCE: I have been writing since I was a small child. Always have, always will. Now I am trying to get published the old fashioned way.<br><br>COMING SOON: Elfwood Elftowner links, other links, etc. Busy, busy, busy!

Just thought I'd pop in from elftown and take a look at your pics, you have a great talent in getting expression in your dragons faces, I admire the emotion that you can show in your drawings.
see you around town

After a very short look i realized that you have unique style so, keep this up!

Dude, you are f'in sick!

I wish to say you that your art is great. I like your way to draw and I love your dragons. And yours ideas are very originals. Congrats and thanks to sharing your art.

Your art sucks ass!

It's pretty good, but I don't like the way you draw the eyes... that, and the hair. ...*eats ramen*... what up with that, yo?

Hey! Elfwood is back up. You seem to have disappeared from the face of the web. Hope everything goes well!

Wow . . . Elfwood has changed o__O

Updating ASAP
