I am been soo very busy with work and opening a new store. I am exhausted! :faint:

This week though I will have some time off and hopefully soon my schedule will be more free so I can get more art done. I keep getting messages and activity I appreciate every one of them but honestly I am not sure if I can get back to everyone to thank them. Maybe I will make a thank you card for you all and post it in my gallery. :blowkiss:

Well that's all for now got to get ready to go back to work soon!
Take care!

:heart: Feature Artists



There are a lot of artists on here that I admire and so many pieces of art that I love. Here I want to feature some of my favorites...



*Medusa-Dollmaker
with "Le Chat Noir Romi Meutriere"
This is a big inspiration to me! I absolutely LOVE this style and the skin tones with the lace texture. And the whole concept that it is a woman and not just a cat. ;)





~Wings-of-dust
with "To break free"
The red tones of her hands looks as if stained I really love this effect, it gives a lot to the story of the images as well. Great use of color and movement with the red leaves.





`loish
with "crimson petals"
This image is soft, delicate, and feminine. I how her pose, the use of curved lines in the background and flowers.

Messages for you

I am trying really hard to get back to everyone to thank you for your support as it does mean a lot to me! It is slow going but I am getting there so don't think that I have forgotten you!

I hope to also be getting a new PC soon, I keep having on going issues and need an upgrade. Lots of glitches with programs, drivers and even hard drives crashing. Right now I have an issue with my Wacom it keeps double clicking on me every third click and in Photoshop CS4 in a new document it draws on its own a line from the bottom right to the top left of the document and then scribbles around. Yes I have downloaded the new drivers for it and installed them several time in several ways. Just a wee bit annoying and hard to work like this anymore. So I am not sure if it is Windows or the Wacom itself. If the Wacom is broken I will just buy the new Wacom Intuos 4, it's better to upgrade anyways.

Well that's all for now!

Sad

Journal Entry: Thu Oct 15, 2009, 1:52 PM
  • Mood: Sadness



I never really talk about my feelings on the net much anymore, as I feel like they are silly to others and often misunderstood. Today was a hard day, I am working on a piece in remembrance of my almost 19 year old cat who pasted away a year ago this Oct 18th.

Off and on I have been trying to work on it but get distracted or choose to do something else. I think it is subconscious, but today I had to go through some pictures of him and I just started crying and a lot. It's still hard because he was really close to me and always in my life. I had him at a certain time in my life from when I was 10 till I was 28, that's a lot of time. I think what makes it worse is that he passed away with a terminal illness, a tumor in his liver, which he was diagnosed a year and a half before he past. It was hard to see him like that but I do not believe in just euthanizing when they can eat and walk around and enjoy there favorite sunny spot on the window bed. I did everything I could every day to make him happy and comfortable that whole time. I am just so sorry he had to go that way.

I am trying to get it done and ready for the 18th, I feel a little bit better after letting out some emotions but it is still something that makes me very sad. This piece means a lot to me so I am trying to put my emotions into it to express the kind of love and connection we shared. He was the best thing that happened in my life. Find it funny or not but he was.
