Moving back home has been the most irritating of irritating. But you must do what you must! I have a few things I want to finish this week and the drive to do it just needed time to get back. I think I'm going to push myself. It's so strange really... Being home again near my family. No privacy, nothing is secret. No respect I tell you. lol But I think I've learned to live with it slightly!

I have a prospective job too. I hope it becomes a book in the future.

All in all, I want to know what motivates you all, what fuels you to do the art that you do? Stories, artists, links... I'd like to hear about it.

My friend sent me this link I thought was interesting when I said I had trouble coming up with color schemes. It helps since I have a problem visualizing what goes well together. I hope it helps any of you!

In my freetime, which was lacking, I lurked pretty hard. Watched a few new people here and there. But yeah, for the most part I'm back. Uhh... I graduated, FINALLY. I can now put that behind me and move fully into the work force. For now I am still your friendly neighborhood waitress. Maybe it'll be something more in a few months.

So yeah, still need to pack my things and move. If I don't find a new place in DC I may end up moving back with my mom which is not good. Not only will I feel like a burden, but she's like in the middle of nowhere in a two bedroom condo. Not to mention both my sisters reside there as well. And since my sister decided to move back home from college first she sorta usurped the available room when my youngest sis is at her dads. So yeah, NOT a good idea.

Anywho, I'm going to draw a bit and hopefully get my mojo back... I think I'm going to start with the basics again because I still have trouble thinking up poses.

As for commissions I don't mind doing them but lately I've been stuck on one in particular x.x I have a hard time making characters interact with each other... So I think I'm going to stick with single character pin ups for now. No backgrounds, if that interests you definately send me a note and we'll talk. If I owe you, I'll contact you right now! (and if I owe you, you paid me and I still haven't contacted you, yell at me)

Net's out again and I need to pay rent and graduate! lol, I'm fulltime now at work (I am but a lowly humble waitress) and at my last quarter of school. I have no days off and find it hard to make time even for myself. I'm not really into my art as much for now. I know alot of people say they aren't where they want to be with their art but it's been that way for a while with me... PLUS... been too busy. If you commissioned me I'm going to refund your money! Just note me~ I feel really bad about not getting work out in a reasonable time. I start it, get somewhere, then see no end in sight. I know people hire me because they like my work but I don't see it... and things take me too long. People might think it looks nice but it just doesn't make me happy. When I find myself again I'll be back.

Till then I'm taking a break from art! Just not feeling it right now... But I'll be around! Happy arting to you all!

Lol trying to work but the job isn't giving me enough money for the hours I work. Went through 2 of 3 interviews to become a waitress with flying colors. Hope hope HOPE I get this waitress gig. So I can throw the money at the damned internet providers. So yeah, work and interviews have been taking up my time. Gotta update the commission queue. Don't worry! I haven't fallen off the face of the earth. I'm working on commissions and things as we speak. I keep getting stuck with certain things about them but then I have to remind myself that people wouldn't have PAID me to draw if they didn't trust what I'd give them >.< So yeah, confidence issue there. I have a hard time just getting things on paper and liking it the first and second time. Terrible habit, hope to break that soon.

NOW FOR DRAWING EXERCISES!

My house is a mess...

P.S. I thought watchmen was awesometastic.

P.P.S. I finally got my mug from deviant art of the lovely pyawakit's art. [link] It is gorgeouuuuus!

Yeah, I'm there. Yesterday I had to work and came there with nothing! I'll have like 4 choices of prints to buy, and my new VDay picture

Unfortunately I can't get the prints done that I wanted to for the people I said I'd have stuff for. My computer is nearing death and I'd bring it to show people my progress but there are no outlets :/ I remember last katsu I could leave it unplugged for 8 hours!

Anywho, I hope you all have a lovely valentines day!
