Sorry I haven't been around much lately. My life blew up and it hasn't stopped blowing up for about the past year and a half or so. The situation I'm in is pretty bad and there's really no way out so art has had to take a backseat for a time. Being an adult sucks. :\ I miss the days when I could just sit around painting whatever I wanted. But that's life, I guess. We can't stay young forever.
On the upside (sort of), I believe I've finally figured out the root cause (or at least part of it) behind my weird eye problems. Fibromyalgia. Yipee... because I needed that on top of PCOS and YYDS.
But on the actual upside, DRAGONS! <3 Dragons. I don't draw them nearly as often as I should. They're one of my favorite kinds of fantasy creature, right up there with mermaids, unicorns, and gryphons.

oh gods, i'm so sorry to hear about the fibro, my friend had that and it was a brutal on her day-to-day life. it is sad that we no longer live in a world where we can always do what we love, but i guess, it's got to rain so you can appreciate the sunshine
excellent execution on both colour harmony and details

Thanks. :)
And yeah, Fibro really, really sucks a whole bunch. The worst part (for me at least) is that it makes maintaining a healthy weight extremely difficult. It was already difficult for me to begin with thanks to PCOS and an eating disorder stemming from childhood when I learned to use food as a coping mechanism for abuse/stress/anxiety/depression. I used to jog an hour every day but now, a lot of the time, the pain is too great, especially in my hips and knees, or I just have absolutely no energy regardless of how healthy I eat or how much sleep I get. But the absolute worst is when the migraine train rolls around. I was on one that lasted TWO MONTHS once. Egads, that was awful.
But on the (sort of) upside, I've learned that there are triggers which can make it worse and I've learned to avoid them so at least I'm functional now most of the time.

not really. cbd oil from Hemp was never outlawed. cbd from marijuana is schedule one as with pot (which is stupid)
heck, they sell it on Amazon for goodness sake https://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&a.....vpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=b&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9019203&hvtargid=kwd-57578903459&ref=pd_sl_3clqolj2q5_b_p20
I hear good things about BlueBird https://www.bluebird-botanicals.com.....idiol-cbd-oil/
Google Is Your Friend. I know FLA just barely Didn't pass legal pot in the last election, which is also stupid with president cheeto-face-small-hands.

Fibro Today has a couple of articals on it http://www.fibrotoday.com/5-facts-a.....-fibromyalgia/
there's even a patch https://fibromyalgianewstoday.com/2.....y-for-release/
for a while we thought my brother might have fibro, but it's Scheuermann's Disease https://www.spine-health.com/condit.....d-lumbar-spine
along with several degenerative bone diseases. bulging disks, burst disks, impinging disks... and that was the last time he had an MRI
so I spent quite a bit of time reading up on this stuff.
truth be told I have not touched pot since before my son was born in 1997, but I would consider it if it were legal in my state for recreational, AND I could get enough time off of work so it wouldn't show up in a piss test. (I get drug tested anywhere from twice a year, to twice a month based on D.O.T randoms)

Just what you didn't need on top of everything else. At least you have some of it figured out, even if you can't live the way you wish to. You're damn right about being an adult sucking! I know the feeling.
Dragons! Very nice!! I don't see froggie in there though. Is he hiding well or what?

Well poop! You've gotten too darn tricky for me finally. I think this is the third picture he's in that I haven't been able to find him. I even cheated and went into photoshop and played with all sorts of contrast and saturations 'n stuff to see if I could bring him out and failed.
As someone who has fibromyalgia, I am so SO sorry to hear you're having to deal with it as well, especially on top of your other issues. I can sympathize omg.
Also, this is BEAUTIFUL! Yay dragons! Sorry my commentary on the actual art isn't that great. Brain fog. lol

Yay! I love dragons! *happydances*
Also, I've REALLY missed your artings.
Almost been getting withdrawal symptoms without those regular glimpses into that amazingly detailed world of yours that I wish I could just live in all the time and explore.
Also...
Found the Froggie! MwaHaHaHaHaaaa!
