Been working on a new project going on 2 weeks now. Yes, it's yet another Gargoyles fanfic and I have a new OC. But I have a passion for this one that I haven't had since 2009 when I came up with Iridescent-Princess. I've gotten pretty far with the story and I'm having a lot of fun with it. I don't get much time to write or draw anymore, but I've been trying to find time for it. Getting back into writing and drawing has been helping me re-discover myself and re-discover my creativity. I'm a mom to a soon-to-be 2 year old (next month!!) and I work 40 hours a week, so it's VERY hard to make time for myself. But with the help of Google Docs, I've been able to work on my story both at home (when my daughter is napping or when I get home from work) and while at work on my breaks (typing on my smartphone). I've also finished my very first drawing in almost 2 years! It's a pic of my new OC, Xeenia. I'm kinda falling in love with her, and I've created a story sorta inspired by Love Hina. The pairing in this story is actually Puck/OC/Coyote (the trickster). And I have a lot of new ideas I'm going to introduce that I came up with that I haven't seen in any other Gargoyle fanfic yet (then again, I only read Puck/OC fics, so I don't know if they've been used in any other Gargoyles fic.) Hopefully everyone will enjoy this story as much as I am writing it. I have chapter 1 up on fanfiction.net, but I want to wait until I get a few more chapters written before I start posting them to deviantArt. Please remember, that I MIGHT be able to upload a new chapter about once a week, considering how busy I am. But I've been working faithfully on it every day!

Cleaned up my dA Page
So I've been doing a lot of drawing lately. It started with a fanart contest hosted by Pearl Abyss (creators of Black Desert Online), and I drew a picture to submit to it (here), and I actually had a lot of fun with it! I pushed myself to do my absolute best, even though I'm still not very good with anatomy or backgrounds (I used a LOT of references, still didn't get the background to look the way I wanted it to, but it's definitely better than it was when I first drew it.) I think getting into this game, and then participating in their fanart contest was the best thing to happen to me in a long time, it made me re-discover my love for art! I'm almost finished with my second drawing for this year (got the base colors down, just got to do the shading and highlights!) and I've already got a third one planned (a request from my step-daughter) and I've got a lot of ideas buzzing around my head for more drawings. I'm wanting to get away from the anime style, I have been for a few years now
Commissions?
Would anyone be interested in buying commissions from me? I'll only accept Paypal at the moment, since we're so tight on money. (If you guys are wondering about that job I had posted a while ago, it didn’t work out since it required driving to several places just to rake up hours and we ran out of gas before my first day of work, we just couldn’t afford the gas off just my hubby’s income…) So I thought I’d try to make some extra money doing something I love - drawing! Plus it’ll help me get better the more I draw. :)
Another question I have is, how would I set Paypal up on dA so I can receive money from pe
Flower Children
I'm working on re-drawing my Flower Children manga. :) I know I only drew 2 pages before, but I'm hoping to finish it this time. Even if I have to make it short (I'm thinking of "movie length", not episodic.) It's a part of the Inktober event, so all if it is drawing completely in ink on mixed media paper. I kinda like drawing manga this way, instead of digitally. There are some things I need to get better at though (like hatching...ugh...I'm great at cross-hatching, but I'm terrible at hatching lol.) I've almost finished page 1. Looks like it might take me 2 days to draw one page. That isn't too bad. :) Maybe whenever I'm finished with it,
Got a job!
Hey guys, I got a job! And it looks like I'll still have time for art! It's a part time job, and I'll be working in the mornings, so my hubby can watch our kids, then when I come home I go through my normal routine and once I put the kids down to bed, I'll still have the same amount of time that I've always had to work on new drawings! I like this job too. I have a little control over my own hours. It's a janitorial job, and I'll be sent to different places. Once I'm finished with my assignments for the day, I can either go on home or call my employer to see if they have any other place they want to send me so I can get more hours.
