So... after so long of not posting anything and just barely keeping up with the notifications I watch, I have returned! Sorta, maybe. lol I was prompted that I might wish to post a picture of a recent project of mine here because some people either don't know tumblr or don't use tumblr and it's a recent site for me so it's not like I've used it TOO much yet other than to follow authors and other artists. 

I've pretty much gone away from the 2D arts of drawing and painting for the time being though I do want to go back to watercolors and acrylics eventually, and have gotten more into other crafts like sewing, embroidery, beading, and crochet. Crochet has been the big thing that I've been doing recently, starting with making a bunch of hats a couple years ago for my grandmother, up to more recently making myself a blanket that I might submit a picture of later when I get a decent one, to the octopus plushy I just submitted and had so much fun making even if my hands were rather sore for a day after finishing it. 

Anywho, I can't promise to be more active or anything, but I'll try? And when I make more interesting things, I'll try and share them here too! :D

So... I have a new drawing I wanna upload, but I have no scanner access at the moment. I went to my grandparent's house last weekend, but I hadn't gotten the drawing back from my teacher... so yea... heh.

I won't spoil what it is, but it did get an A and a comment of "Beautiful" which makes me very pleased, especially since I really like the drawing.

In other news... I'm very very close to getting a new laptop! And hopefully, shortly after the laptop, I'll be getting a printer/scanner thing... even if I have almost no room for it, I'll figure out something... though THAT might wait until after gettin a new bed... we'll see how things go!

Time for me to go, but hope to be back with new stuff to upload soon!

Heeeeeeeey there peoples!

I finally managed to get some stuff uploaded... >.> Though not all of it is very good images. I'll work on that if I can...

A bit of a life update: I got a nice little raise at work, so I've been saving most all of it and putting it towards the eventual (like in a few weeks) purchase of a new laptop... as the one I have is 5yrs old and starting to really head downhill... Also, I'll try and look into printer/scanners and try to get one at the same time... preferably something I can easily store when not in use... THEN I'll have no more excuses for not uploading stuff!

Also, a new laptop will let me connect to the cable net connection my bro is paying for... my wireless card currently refuses to like his router so I'm stuck on dialup still.

Hopefully I'll be able to be submitting more things soon... ^_^

I don't  usually do these things (i also don't get tagged very often) but whatever, here's mine... lol

Here are the rules:

The player of this "game" starts with the topic "6 weird habits/things about yourself" and people who get tagged need to write a journal about their 6 weird habits/things as well as stating the rules clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "you are tagged" in their devpage comments and tell them to read yours.... "

1--I have a thing for tweezers. Sometimes, I get REALLY bored and pluck at the hairs on my legs... (if I haven't shaved in a few days, man I'm wierd and lazy and such... think I've gone mostly numb to the pain though XD)

2--I collect some of the most random seeming things... to myself anyway. Collect such things like my school notes (I'm gettin better, I no longer hold onto them for years afterwards... O.o), colored paperclips at work from the mail that comes in, pebbles, mint tins (more like I don't throw them away when they get empty...)

3--Totally not an addictive personality here, I'll play vid games for a couple days/weeks, then stop cold turkey for days/weeks/months on end... I've got games I've had for years and still haven't finished cause I get bored... >.<

4--I sketch ALOT at work. Like, I've got to have several blank-ish sticky notes spread on my desk and a pencil near to hand for when I draw stick figures or other things...

5--I have a strange bump on the inside-side of my right wrist. It's probably been there years, but it's one of those things you just never notice... like the other strange thing on that same arm/hand, three freckles on the heel of my palm that form a near equilateral triangle. They're slowly fading though, one is practically non-existent.  

6--I've got to have a tin of mints somewhere near to hand. I eat those things alot... PREFERABLY Peppermint Altiods. It's my addiction! XD

Let's see... who should I tag... XP

Noone! ^_^ That's simple enough! lol specially since most of my list isn't active enough I don't think... or they've probably been tagged already... so yea. heh
