Every time..

I always go months without being on here, and then I get back on and upload newer stuff. 

A lot is going on but I'm close to transferring. My drawing skills have developed so much more and gotten so much better. The rest of my classes are just all art related now, which is wonderful. My cats are well, recently rescued a new born kitten, found a foster momma cat with a litter to nurse it and help it grow strong, in 3-4 weeks I'll take it to it's new home, and also finally know it's gender so I stop referring to the kitten as "it". 

Over all doing well, and pretty happy that I was able to help that little kitten.

So I went m.i.a again, but that's not new.
Let's see... The past year has in fucking insane, a lot of stress, trying to stabilize my living situation, trying to concentrate on school, trying not to go insane and kill myself (I wouldn't, don't get all sentimental), taking care of my cat(s), I got a kitten, she's insane, but awesome. 
Anyways, my brother's wife was diagnosed with breast cancer, so that kind of took it's toll on all of us, it's been really stressful. I've been terribly depressed. On the bright side though, her surgery was in August, it went extremely well, she decided to have both breasts removed and had reconstructive surgery done in the same procedure. She pulled through and the first thing she said was "can you fix my wig please". She has one last round of chemo, then recovery and she's done. This woman is such a trooper, she's strong, kind, understanding, she's never cast judgement on me, and has always been there for me no matter what. Seeing her get better has brought the joy of life back into me, it's been a tough year.
I've also gotten a lot more good news, this having to do with school, I've been attending santa monica community college for the past 3 yrs trying to figure out what it is I want to do. I decided I wanted to got Otis College of Art and Design, to get a Bachelors in Digital Media which encompasses video game design, animation, special effects, character design, storyboarding, etc. It's been quite stressful as well because I changed my major to art therapy but then realized I'd rather go for my original plan. Well, all my hard work has definitely paid off because I now have 2 classes left and I can transfer into Otis next Fall 2014. Which is awesome, because I thought I was going to be stuck at smc for another 2 years, also! I don't have to take ANY math! Which makes me sooo fucking happy, because I SUCK at math.
Any who, that's basically all I have to say.

It's night's like these that bring feelings of nostalgia and a longing for those beautiful days.
I did have an amazing day today though, and last night was very touching as well. Listening to Fleetwood Mac right now is just making this feeling even better. I feel tired but I don't at the same time, probably cuz I don't want to go to bed yet, I feel like I should be doing something but I don't know what exactly. I guess it's just that anxious feeling you get when nostalgia creeps in.

Things have been going well for me, even though this year was a big slap to the face I feel like I've grown so much. I really can't complain because when anything goes wrong and I really need something the universe provides. I guess I have good karma. School is a bit stressful, I got into a bicycle accident so that set me back a lot. But I'm catching up fairly well. I luckily got an art class so I can get started on that and continue on to my next step which is developing my skill as an artist. Then I can move on to developing my style. I'm really happy that I got a Wacom tablet recently too, I can get started on that too and then develop my digital art skills which would be really great!

The only thing that sucks is that lack of sleep only makes it worse because then my brain starts to fuck with me... I should probably get to bed.. maybe...

I haven't been on in quite a while. I've been so busy with school and work just trying to get myself together. Since I'm out on my own now, I'm realizing a lot about life. I've known these things before, but its never really hit me until now. I have my own place which is great. It's been 2 years now since I moved out. It's nice because I feel so much more independent. I have a lot of responsibilities but I like it. I'm learning more everyday and realizing more everyday. It's a great feeling of accomplishment. Speaking of accomplishments, in August I will be a part of an art show. The show will be in at EM's Artist Cafe here in Los Angeles. I had been waiting for this place to open for a while, not too long a go i passed by and they were open so I came in. I asked about the paintings on the walls and whether they accepted outside artists. They said they did so I came back the next day and showed them my portfolio. They liked my work and squeezed me in for the show. Ironically the owners son is in a band called Ship of the Rising Sun and about 2 years ago I got one of their albums. The cafe is great, its laidback and so chill. Everyone is friendly, just like any artist would be! I've been coming to the cafe or at least trying to come as often as possible.
I'm really excited, this will be my first and I can't wait! I have several pieces already and a few more I'm working on.
I'm almost done with one and I've started two others. Now I just need to keep it going, keep following the steps, and try to be a little more social!

I'm so excited!

I love portraits of people, and I don't mean just the average portrait, I mean those really nice portraits where you can really see who that person is. Those are my favorites.
And here are some more I found that I really liked :)
