If you guys haven't gotten on yet, you totally need to get on Flight Rising, a dragon breeding game. Today is a registration day (they only open it in small windows) so you should totally go right now and register. If you like, you can put me (BGArts) as the one who referred you! I would love to surprise you with gifties. C:

I think it's a totally fun game, and the art is incredible! Go now! http://flightrising.com/index.php

My bestie and her fiancé adopted a pup and it turned out to have parvo. The treatment is expensive and so they need the help of the fandom.

You can find information here http://www.furaffinity.net/view/13131779/ and here http://www.furaffinity.net/view/13131731/

I'd be up to doing some thank-you sketches if you show me proof that you donated to their cause plus a ref sheet of your character. $1-5 bust, $6-15 3/4ths, or $16+ full body

How is everyone btw?

~Bell

It was kinda a bleh day yesterday, but you all made it a little better.
At least this weekend will be better-Weegee06 is coming over to celebrate. 8D Expect silly doodles in the near future.


So how have all of you been?
~Bell

Would you guys be interested in seeing some of my personal elfy/humanoid-ish characters posted here? Or what about avatar fan-characters?

I know this is a furry site, but as I've kind of abandoned dA I don't have very many places to post that sort of thing...

~Bell

Sounded like a good idea, especially when I haven't done it in a while....

So ask away, just don't get too flirty, k?

I'm not going to abandon FA, mostly as I'm watching too many awesome artists that are not moving. Buuuut you can still find me at:

https://www.weasyl.com/~bgarts
(I don't have much posted there now, but will start posting new stuff there at the same time as here in the future so that those who are leaving FA can still see my art. If you want me to post anything there that's on this account now, let me know. I'd be happy to transfer it over there.)

http://bgarts.tumblr.com/
(My art blog that has mostly non-furry things)

http://naranjslog.tumblr.com/
(Flight Rising art blog)

I am going to be there tonight, tomorrow, and early sunday. Find this fluff if you dare~

Also will be suiting in my older suit Baily as well as debuting Gondwana, a suit by Mordrude'sMonsters.

My face went from 8D to :C rather quickly...
Goddamn it Peter, you gave me hope from none right at the very beginning then you dropped me into the pit of despair that much harder. Or maybe it's Howard Shore fault as the theme music was what got me all happy, then the visuals were disappointing. Just sit in Bree and eat carrots Peter. You do much better at that...






At least I got to go on a date with my love. o3o;

I've been in school, sorry for not telling you guys sooner... Life has been busy.

Summer was fun though. I went to China, Pittsburgh (AC), Texas, and all around SoCal. Had both my grandmother and thatloserguy123 visit (with a little overlap). And then BOOM school. UGH.

I may open up some commissions as I've been closed all summer to work on my style. I'm still not happy with it, but with those who have been asking, I owe it to you guys. The commissions however will not have my 1 month guarantee, as I know I get swamped with schoolwork easily....

So how have you guys been?
~Bell

BUMP C:

Sorry guys I haven't been around much. I've been busy with life. visited me the last few weeks, but he's back home now. This weekend I went to the Monterrey Bay Aquarium with me mum which was pretty awesome, but the internet at the motel we stayed at was CRAP so I didn't really get to look at messages. Will slowly get back to all of you soon, and hopefully more art to come.

To entertain you all, here's a meme I filled out:

1: Could you go the rest of your life without smoking a cigarette?
Yes, most definitely

2: Are you single/taken/heartbroken/confused?
Taken<3

3: What if I told you that you were pretty?
I would look a bit surprised, but say "thank you."

4: Ever been told “it’s not you, it’s me”?
Nope, I've never heard it and never said it. I usually am the one who dumps the guy, and it's from something they've done that really made it impossible for me to feel right dating them, and from my track record, usually never talk to them again.

5: Are you interested in anyone right now?
Only the one I'm dating.

6: What are you looking forward to in the next week?
Sleeeeeeeeep

7: Do you want to be single?
No, not really. Being single is depressing as everyone seems to pity you and also that'd mean that the relationship I have right now would be gone, which would be rather devastating...

8: Did you go out or stay in last night?
I was vacationing, so "stayed out" from 10am to 9pm sightseeing and things

9: How late did you stay up last night?
11pm. I fell asleep rather early....

10: Can you recall the last time you realized you liked someone a lot?
Every time I say "I love you", which is rather a lot.

11: Last three things you had to drink?
Soda, water, iced coffee.

12: Have you ever pretended to like someone?
As in friendly, yes when the situation called for it. Romantically, never.

13: Have you ever told somebody you loved them and not actually meant it?
Yes, when I was pressured to say it by an ex. Made me realize that that relationship was very bad for me.

14: Honestly, has anyone seen you in your underwear in the past 3 months?
Yes, one purposefully and one by accident (why doesn't motel6 not have locks on its bathroom doors?)

15: Is it hard for you to get over someone?
Yes, it can be.

16: Think back five months ago, were you single?
Nope.

17: What were you doing at 12:30 this afternoon?
Sitting in a car, riding home from mum and my long weekend excursion.

18: Hold hands with anyone this week?
Yes

19: Could you go for the rest of your life without drinking alcohol?
Could I if I really wanted? yes. Do I want to? hell no.

20: What would you name your future daughter?
Brenna

21: Do you miss anyone?
Quite a few people. Some who have passed on, and those who've cut ties with everyone they knew so I can't reach them anymore...

22: Have you kissed three or more people in one night?
As in family, yes. Out of the family, never.

23: Did your last kiss take place in/on a bed?
No... Last one was in the airport....

24: Are you good at hiding your feelings?
Sometimes I'm very quiet with them, sometimes I'm a bit loud with them. Matters on what people I'm around.

25: Have you ever cried from being so mad?
Yeah...

26: Who did you last see in person?
Me mum

27: Are you listening to music right now?
Nope.

28: What is something you currently want right now?
The Memphis Burger that used to be at Carl's Jr. It was nummy.

29: What is the last thing you said out loud?
Goodnight to my love.

30: How is your heart lately?
*pokes at chest* Same as ever...

31: Do you wear the hood on your hoodie?
Do I put the hood up you mean? No, unless I'm REALLY cold.

32: Are you wearing socks?
Nope, I hardly wear socks, and only if it's freezing out.

33: What do people call you?
My family and my friends HS and below call me by my given name, everyone else calls me Bell. I prefer Bell.

34: Will you talk to the person you like tonight?
Already did.

35: Are there any stressful situations in your life?
OOOOH YEAH. Too many. For sure.

36: Who did you last share a bed with?
Me mum as the hotel put us in the wrong room the first night and mum REFUSED to go get it fixed until we hurt our backs laying down on that crappy mattress.

37: Did you do something bad today?
Grump at someone who didn't deserve it. Not really.

38: When was the last time a member of the opposite sex hugged you?
Thursday.

39: Do you get stressed out easily?
Yeah...

40: Will you sing today?
mmmn probably not.

41: Have you ever wanted to tell someone something but didn’t?
Yeah, I usually forget what I was going to say too fast...

42: Who do you go to when you need to talk to someone?
It kinda matters on what it is and what the situation is. I talk to who I think of my best friends: my love, my mum, Weeg, and Wander. Each person has certain things I talk about to them about...

43: Have you ever been taken to the emergency room in an ambulance?
Nope, though I've driven myself there in severe pain. C:

44: What are you listening to right now?
My computer fan working its butt off.

45: What is wrong with you right now?
Well besides the usual problem that crops up right about now,

46: What is on your wrists right now?
Nothing. I really can't stand much on my wrists. I like them clear of anything that would clink against computer/tablet.

47: Where did you get the shirt/sweatshirt you’re wearing?
Well the one that I was wearing was from Monterrey Bay. It's a joke shirt advertising "Drunken Otter Lager-It'll put you on your back!" It was a cute find in a touristy store on Cannery Row.

48: What do you like better: hot chocolate or hot apple cider?
Hot chocolate. Much yummier<3

49: Do you make wishes at 11:11?
I just point out any times like that. It's just an amusing thing to do when stuck in a car or something.

50: Are you a good artist?
Uuuuuh is it prideful of me to say yes?

51: Love really is a beautiful thing huh?
Mmmhm...

52: Do you miss the way things were six months ago?
NOPE, not at all. At least it wasn't as bad as 7 or 8 months ago I guess....

53: Ever been on a golf cart?
Yup

54: Do you have trust issues?
Yeeeeah, a bit.

55: Ever stayed up all night on the phone, with who?
Not stayed up, but woken up in the middle of the night and talked them through morning, more than once, for sure.

56: Do you own something from Hot Topic?
Lots of things, as they stock Doctor Who things as well as i do love me some gothic styles every once in a while just to throw people off a bit. C:

57: Do you use chap stick?
Not chap stick. I really like some of my liquid lip balm though. I just have to remember not to put it on right before kissing my love....

58: Have you ever slapped someone in the face?
Nope. Wanted to though.

59: Do you have a little sister?
Nope. I'm the youngest of all my step-siblings if that makes something....

No, but DANG I want to. That Natural History Museum UNF

Yes

Two people I believe.... Mum most recently and then my love before he left....

63: What were you doing at midnight last night?
Playing with dragons.

64: Have you ever regretted kissing someone?
I guess in some ways....

65: Is there one person in your life that can always make you smile?
More than one actually. I be blessed.

66: Were your last three kisses from the same person?
Yes.

67: Have you kissed anyone in the last five days?
Barely yes.

68: Would you rather sleep with someone else or alone?
I would rather sleep with someone if it was my love. Otherwise alone is preferable.

69: Will next Friday be a good one?
I guess? I dunno.

I um... have been a bit busy... doing commissions, enjoying the company of my bf who's out to see me, and stuffs....

But hey! I have a new tumblr! http://naranjslog.tumblr.com/ It's all FR related, but wheeeeeeee I had to put one together with all the doodles I had. I have some portraits on the way that I've been using as warm-ups, but for right now, I hope you enjoy what's on there now...

What have all you been doing?



p.s. Hi there new watchers. o.o How did ya find me?

Go here-> http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/4799560/

As I said on my other account, I'm headed off to see this weekend. Won't be back until the 25th-ish. Soooo say what you need to say to me tonight or tomorrow, or wait for me to come back. I won't be doing much interneting as I'll be in gosh-dang-awesome China<3

Will be finishing up the two commissions I owe at least. Any more art I dunno if will be digital or traditional... But it should be happening, AT LEAST on the plane ride. I think it'll be something like 13 hours or something? I dunno, my math is all funky. But it'll definitely be enough time to arts...

Miss you all already!

I just started classes, so arts will be slower, as will response time to messages. I will try to get once a day at least though...

That said, I've been planning on trying to get my characters proper refs, since I've been neglecting them so much. :/ So look out for that!

Anything else you guys would like to see?

Take care!
