I know. >_>
But I swear in all of my existance I had a legit excuse this time! D:
My move to Chicago went super, and I really want to thank everyone who wished me a safe trip It's you guys that got me over my fear of planes! D: D:
I was settling in nicely with all of my friends, but after being there for less than a week, I recieved a call from my mother that my great aunt had passed away. I can safely say that she was the family member I was the closest to, and I was really upset about hearing that she passed away so suddenly. She was 83 years old, so I know she lived a long and fruitful life, and I will miss her dearly. I flew back to Tennessee for her service.
A few days later I came back to Chicago and was able to settle in comfortably. World of Warcraft took over my life for a week or so, but it's not my fault I swear >__>...
My awesome roommate Liz is letting me borrow her super sexy tablet, so I can finally try some digital work again
I also got a really great update on school. I am now officially a student of the Illinois Institute of Art at Chicago! I promised myself I would never go to an art school, thinking them all to be expensive and pretentious; that, and I never saw myself loving drawing so much that I could actually have a career in it.
AI changed my view on that completely. One of my roommates is a graduate from there, and he convinced me that they were not a school that "taught" art. Rather, AI is a school that takes what you already love to do and helps you apply that to the job market. As successful and amazing as HE is, I can't wait to see what I can do if I put all my effort in to improving my faults. (Go see Brad's awesome work at his site: www.planetbrad.com/ ! You know you want to watch that sexy demo reel.)
As for the greatest news of all, I found out that not only is Kristyrat coming to live in Chicago as well this very month, but he will also be attending the same school as me! I'm so giddy about having him back that I can barely stand it!
Thank you everyone for all of your kind comments, as well as the nice congrats on my placing in yuumei's contest! I'm so stoked that I was one of the winners, but there were some spectacular entries in there, and I know that contest made a difference in a lot of peoples' hearts.
You all have made these past few weeks, even with it's downs, some of the best of my life. It only gets better from here, and I am working really hard on improving my art and getting better for myself and all of you, who support me!
I wish dA made a bigger heart than , because you all deserve it :3

Working through my messages and absence
Hello all! This is, as seems to be my habit, an apology for being absent for such a long period of time. I don't ever mean to be gone to so long, but I was so SO busy with school and work that I had absolutely no time for myself. I have loved school so far, but the projects are so enormous that I don't have time to draw anything personal or anything outside of my schoolwork anymore. My mother and grandfather have also been sick these past couple of weeks, and in my free time I have been flying home to spend time with them.
I have decided to take all online classes this quarter, so I can play catch up big time on all of my obligations and res
Sailor Moon Reboot - Feedback?
I've been wanting try my hand at comic/sequence art for a very long time, but any ideas for comics I had were too personal to waste on my first go.
So i've had this idea for a long time, and I wanted to run it by you guys for opinions.
The comic would be somewhat of a Sailor Moon reboot, and gritty one. It would be free and online only, not for profit for obvious copyright reasons - just an homage.
So! Throw some ideas at me. This would be something I would do in my free time between school, work, and other commitments, so it would be a long process.
I need some ideas for:
-Story line I need it to still roughly related to the original ma

everyone should go over there and look at how amazing this is.
and don't tell him I said to, because then he'll be all like "ohhh no don't make everyone look at my horrible crap blah blah blah" and you can tell him to shut up and stop being so damn modest.
i give you permission to tell him to shut up 8D
Got all my acen commissions done, working on one last commission I had from a little bit ago. So, now that my commissions are in the mail, i'm going to work on a few personal things for some friends for a bit. Also, my small summer break starts soon, but I will be go

Thanks to all who came by and said hi at acen :D I got swamped with commissions, so I'll be finishing those up this week :)
I was sharing a table with JocelynAda (https://www.deviantart.com/jocelynada) and sitting next to Maxx-V (https://www.deviantart.com/maxx-v). We had an AWESOME time, and i even got a tiny bit (like 10 minutes) of cosplaying in. Whoo!
Except we got stuck across from psycho sylvia, so that was no fun. Got tired of staring at shiny desu all damn day.
HOWEVER.
Fun times otherwise! My boyfriend Kristyrat (https://www.deviantart.com/kristyrat) and Ileia did their Iron Editor thingamajig. I played a guessing game while we waited for the contest to finish and swore and hollered a whole lot. I lost :c Oh well, Andre lost too
