End of the decade! What I’ve been up to
Posted 6 years agoHello everyone sorry for not posting much. I’ve been so focused on work and the last few months have been quite challenging emotionally, spiritually, and physically. I suffered a major loss I never thought I’d deal with and it really took me down.
I haven’t been doing so well with my mental health and I’m quite tired of fighting but I’m going to keep pushing forward as much as I can.
I got a new iPad and Apple Pencil for myself to further my art. I’m going to try and upload as much as I can in the new year to come and I hope it’s a better year for me and a good start to the new decade. It’s a personal goal to start challenging myself and try and make something at least once a day.
Thank you to all those who have supported me along all this and thank you to all the new faces I will meet.
I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and an even better new year!

Happy new year to you all! Plans for 2019
Posted 7 years agoHello everyone happy New Years! I hope 2019 treats you all well.

Currently working on my own original species. They are super cool so be on the look out for their species guide sheets. They will be a closed species (for now)
I will be doing more YCH artwork most will have unlimited slots!
I have a YCH ref sheet in the works and will be uploading it very soon.
I have some original adopts coming up soon as well!!
I plan on having some free art raffles as well. They will be on here as well as my Twitter MightyWalross
I look forward to working with all of you in this coming year.

Coming back! .... again
Posted 7 years ago Jesus I haven’t updated in a while.
Life and art block are a bitch.
I’m coming back and I plan to be much more active now that I have plenty of time on my hands
My commissions are now open as well! I’ll be working on getting up a price sheet soon.
I will be on daily and I will try to upload more art on a more consistent basis.
I'm back! Sorry for my long unannounced break
Posted 8 years agoWowie I'm back. I haven't been here in ages. After my grandmother passed in January, school, and work taking over my life I just disappeared for a while and realized I didn't say a word about it. Life got in the way and I just couldn't focus on anything art related.
But now the summer is here! I can relax for a while and get back to doing what I love!
I'm a little rusty though. Hoping I can get back to bettering my abilities.
So again I'm sorry for vanishing! I plan to upload more often
Love you guys <3

Dealing with a loss
Posted 9 years agoToday I got a call at 10:30am from my dad saying that my grandmother has passed away.
I was told she died around 5 in the morning peacefully in her sleep. It's still hard to grasp and I don't think it's really set in that she's gone.
She was 103 years old. She gave the biggest hugs strong enough to crack your spine. She was full of sass and playful until the very end. I wish I would have visited her more but lots of things got in the way. I was happy that I visited her just over a week ago. We sat and talked for a bit about the old tv show she was watching.
She wasn't able to walk anymore in the past few months so when I was over it was snowing pretty hard. She couldn't see for herself so we talked about the snow.
"Is it snowing?"
"Yeah grandma it's snowing"
"Is it pretty?"
"Yeah it's really pretty :)"
"Oh that's so nice"
This morning it was snowing. I took my dogs outside to let them run around and all I could think was "look grandma, it's snowing"
She adored butterflies. Her casket is going to be beautiful snowy white with gold trim with embroided butterflies.
She was so full of life and was the realist person you'll ever meet. She saw people for who they were good bad or indifferent and she accepted you for who you were. What hurts the most is that I have her a kiss on her cheek goodbye and I said "I'll see you soon I love you" which were the very last words I said to my dog Brandy who also died very close to today. And it snowed when she died too. I can only wish that it was Brandy guiding her to her new place watching over our family.
I love you so much grandma. You lived one hell of a life
You're free from the cacoon of mortality and have become a beautiful butterfly. Just don't forget to stop by and say hello from time to time okay?
I will be uploading some pretty emotional art concerning my grandmother and I will be very busy with her wake and funeral services this weekend so I may not be on for a little bit while I mourn.
Thank you for taking the time to read this if you did.

Welcome to the new year
Posted 9 years agoI apologize for my sparatic apperences. The holidays are generally a hectic time for me so I haven't been able to draw much or get around to much on here.
The last month took a big toll on me emotionally and physically and it's still taking a toll coming into the new year.
Though with some very generous gifts of LOADS of new traditional materials for my artwork for Christmas from my sister and fiancé I do hope to gettin around to having some fun and trying out some new styles as well as working with some media I never really was able to such as good colored pencils. I cannot tell you how happy I am to have a fresh supply since I haven't been able to afford much since I was in highschool.
With that being said I don't know how active I will be with work and a very important semester of college just a bit more than a week away but I will try my best to do as much as I can.
I hope you all enjoyed your holidays and your new ear and I wish you all the best coming into a brand new year.
Xoxo

Eat till you are stuffed and hate yourself for it lol I know I will.

Eh venting some feelings
Posted 9 years agoI've felt this way for a while about my art and I can't seem to shake it.
I feel sometimes I'm not a good or legitimate artist because I can't work with a digital medium or that I don't work with markers, colored pencils, or water colors.
I've been raised on and adore traditional art so much.
But buying supplies for it is so difficult for me right now with how pricey it can be. I work a minimum wage job and I go to school and pay for that too that it's kind of impossible to get all the supplies I want to work with.
I want to work with digital art so I can maybe make some money. With me getting into my program soon (hopefully) I won't have any time for my job and I need to survive somehow.
I don't have a computer to work with my bamboo tablet and working on my phone is very time consuming and tasking because it's just using my finger with such a small screen.
I'm trying to work up the courage to ask for a means of working digitally for Christmas but it's so expensive for what I want that I'm too scared to ask.
I just don't know really how to feel. I know I'm a good artist I just don't feel that way.

Crisis averted
Posted 9 years agoI found my sketchbook. I really thought someone stole it. After retracing my steps for what seemed like forever I finally found it in my class but someone had moved it and it blended in with the table it was on.
So yey no embarrassment or art theft for me or losing my art

Stolen sketchbook
Posted 9 years agoSo my sketchbook got stolen at school today somehow. I must have left it somewhere and someone stole it cause I've retraced my steps exactly and I know the place I had it last was in class
So if you see anyone posting my art around (most of the sketches in it I've uploaded) as their own or making fun of it (because I have two drawings of mature nature)
Please say something
I feel mortified and angry as fuck because I had so much art in it. I wanted to draw because of the election.

Sorry for not uploading much.
Posted 9 years agoThings have been pretty hard for me lately and I'm dealing with a lot right now. It's really hindering my ability to draw.
I hope to shake off this funk soon and be back to drawing and uploading more art.
Sorry again for my absence.

Posted 9 years agoHey everyone this is my new account which I'll be active on (or at least try to be with work and schooling and what not)
I'm currently open for SOME requests. If I find that your request doesn't inspire me or I find it not up my alley I will respectfully decline.
Otherwise feel free to ask. I'm looking for some more practice as I've fallen out of practice from furry art and most of my art in general just from my depression and other hectic life issues.
In other news I just bought my first partial. I've wanted my own partial for years now but haven't had the funds and with being a walrus it was very hard to find someone willing to take up the challenge to do such a unique species.
I decided to find a premade and I found the perfect one. His name is Toki and I've been obsessed with creating his character. I cannot wait to have him as he in on route of delivery. I will post pictures of me with him on as soon as I get him! <3
I welcome friendly conversation and I look forward to being more active in my art.
Thanks for reading guys!
