I'm going to keep this as short and simple as I can, to prevent confusing.

I'm leaving Deviantart.  

Although I love all my friends and followers that I've made here, I just feel that, as an art website, this place is just not working for me.  At the risk of sounding emo and angsty, I just don't feel like I'm appreciated here, and uploading all my pictures just for a fave or two and basically no feedback is not worth my time.

Just to leave it at that, however, does not properly express how much this place meant to me.  

:icondragonzero200:,:iconbasstheyoshi:,:iconstevejones313:,:iconaternity:, you guys mean the world to me, and I really hope that our friendship can continue.  
Steve, you especially were one of my greatest friends and inspirations.  I really hope you don't think I abandoned you, because I would never want to hurt you.  I hope you know that.  And I'm sorry I haven't talked to you in forever, and hopefully that can change soon.  But whatever you're doing right now, I'm sure you're kicking ass, taking names, and writing all kinds of beautiful shit about it.

Besides that, it would take too long for me to address you all personally, so I'll just go ahead and apologizing for not having time to talk to you guys anymore.
The same goes for all the rest of my friends here.


Now, on a professional level, I will be leaving all of my artwork here so that hopefully people can continue to look at it.
All of my new artwork will be available to look at on my facebook page at: [link]

If anyone wants to talk, always feel free to email me at gabriel.j.rosenberg@gmail.com.  Every once in a while I may check my AIM or MSN messenger, but don't get your hopes up.

And for the people who are still reading this, I do hope you don't think less of me for quitting DeviantArt.  



Best luck in all your endeavors,

Gabriel Rosenberg (aka BlackPeregrin)

I'm a modern hippie liberal, except without the drugs.
I'm also a Jew. Go ahead and be jealous of my minority-ness.

On my desk is a miniature Buddha, and a typewriter that I bought from a garage sale, for the heck of it.

I'm addicted to my music, and don't care what you think, though I'd love to hear any artist suggestions.
Did I leave anything else?
Oh yeah. I hate lasagna.

I stumbled on some of your stamps I really liked them, so I faved them. I realized later they asked you to go to a link to fav them, when I did it was down. Hope it is ok if I keep in them in my faves anyway.
But by doing that, I came across your page, you look like a really great photographer. :clap:

Yeah, sorry about that. I took down all my stamps in order to direct people to my photography.
But thanks so much anyways. ^_^

Yeah, I've done time.
You know those "DO NOT REMOVE UNDER THE PENALTY OF LAW" stickers on mattresses?
Yup. Cut it right off.
