Happy New Year!
Wow.. It's been almost six months since I last updated this journal. I don't think I've ever gone so long without updating, but life has been a big roller coaster during all that time. I apologize to all of you who are still with me, since I haven't done much of anything on this site at all. I've actually been far more active on my Tumblr art blog. A lot of that is because I only just got a scanner, and I've been doing a lot of traditional artwork for the last couple of months.
On top of the new scanner, my new beau bought me some new painting stuff, since I lost all of my old stuff, so there is likely to be even more traditional art in the future for me. I'm going to have to start sharing some of my newer stuff, obviously, I just haven't decided if I want to bother scanning any of the traditional work I did the last while (aside from my last two drawings, which I have already scanned).
Anyway, out with the old, in with the new. Last year was... A learning experience. I am really grateful that I have gotten to where I am today, even if it was a struggle. So many wonderful people have come into my life since my ex kicked me out, and I feel like I've started a whole new chapter of my life. What the future holds, I really don't know, but I'm looking forward to finding out. So, thank you again for still being here and reading this. I hope that 2016 will be a better year for us all.
Cheers!

Art Influences
I've been thinking a lot about art influences these days, since I always find it interesting to read about where other people's. Looking at all of the people who have inspired me over the years, I can definitely understand why my style is such a mixed breed, as I don't really feel my style is strictly cartoon or anime or comic book. So, I'm going to list a few of the people who come to mind as inspirations to me, and if you'd like to share yours, please do! I love seeing what inspires people and seeing how it can affect a person's style, it's fascinating!
So, some of my influences are:

Hello again!
I'm super pleased that I got such a warm welcome back, and I wanted to thank you all for that! I'm still going to be slow at doing stuff, since I work quite a bit these days (six days straight next week - rip me ), but I'll try and continue my activity!
That being said, I had a bit of a rough week, as a long-time online friend of mine passed away... It was a huge shock to me, and I'm still not entirely able to wrap my head around it... Honestly, it's reminded me again how short life is, and how important it is to make the most of the time I have. Also, to make sure the people in my life know how much they mean to mean. Please,
It's 2018, and I am Back!
Has it really been a year since I uploaded a journal on here...? Wow... :faint: Okay then! I guess this is even more overdue than I realized. *brushes off dust*
First off, hello lovelies! <3 I'm sorry for my absence, but the last year has been... A very insane one, let's put it that way. I won't bore you with too many details on my personal life, since it would honestly take a really long time to fill you in on all of the craziness. You're best off following my Twitter if you want to know that sort of thing, as I'm quite active on there these days.
In terms of art, I feel like my art has changed a LOT over the last year. Or well, maybe

Happy belated New Year, DA! :w00t!:
A lot of stuff has happened over the last while, yet again, but here I am! Still standing - sorta. :XD: I hope you all had a fun and safe holiday! For me, it was... Not so fun... There was a death in my boyfriend's immediate family right before Christmas, and then I ended up having to move on New Year's Eve (longgg story!). Oh, and I turned the big 2-9 last month as well. @.@;
So, here I am now. My new place is finally getting more or less setup. I got my scanner working again, which is great! The internet here actually seems to work, so I may be around a bit more, if I am able. However, on top of work a
