Ive decided to subscribe to the adobe creative cloud service. Its running a modest 29.99 per month and offers access to the entire creative suite. While the programs are ran locally, the cloud checks for updates and handles the subscription. Good news is Im back to painting. I logged about 7 hours last night and about 5 hours today.

Starting the day with some warmup sketches to loosen up with. I didn't paint much last night since it had already been a rather long day. Ill be double timing it today.
