Hi! 
This semester is kicking my butt as I write this. I lost a week due to migraines and I'm still trying to catch up with midterms looming over the horizon- oh joy... *sarcasm* But, I am ok, just tired.
I am enjoying my painting class. Check out the progress on my painting so far!
Decided to go with a deer dragon with an elf friend. I'm trying to get better with textures, shading, and anatomy. So I figured tossing them all in one composition would work, right?
My other classes are sadly not as relaxing as this one. You'd figure Tai Chi would be, but after being out a week I felt like I lost my "center" , my "ground"- the concentration. *sigh* I need to get back into it. The only class I truly despise out right is math. I get all the processes right, but get the wrong numbers...
Figures the last semester would be the hardest and I'm so close to being finished it hurts!
Good news is that things in my personal life are looking better and I'm healing- slowly, but getting there.
I'm trying to be less anti-social and anxious; getting out there and socializing. Getting over old fears. I'm tired of hiding behind people, a wall, or a screen. If I'm going to be a bodybuilder, shynesss is my enemy! 
My weight is getting somewhere, I'm gaining more muscle, but the fat is taking its sweet time melting. I've reached a fat burning plateau. I still work out at my University's gym and I enjoy it. I'm not a "cardio queen", I like to lift "heavy" (if 15-20 lbs dumbbells are heavy) with the guys. I see some girls in the weight room, but not a lot. Sometimes I'm the only girl (and the only thick one at that
). I don't mind it though; just an interesting observation. Good to have the guys' respect at the gym. The desk guy already knows me by name because how often I'm there hahaha! 
I'm starting a fat cutting diet & exercise thing soon. I'm nuts doing it so close to Halloween and the other fatty Holidays (Lord save me! Pumpkin pie and candy everywhere!!)
So yeah, big update, eh? I'm ok really. And I thank the people who have been talking to me online and in real life helping me through all this. You've been helping me with the stress and helping me cope while I grow. Thank you!
Keep me and my family in your prayers! God has things moving in His direction-always!

Doctor approved vaccine!
I'm so happy! I was able to get my first dose of my Covid19 vaccine! My doctor went over the updates and ingredients again and he said it was safe. It went through without a hitch, thank God! Just had to carry my benadryl and EpiPen with me as usual. That was a great birthday present lol. So I'll be fully vaccinated soon! Hopefully this will make getting a job a bit easier. But I still have to take extra precautions. Work from home would be the best choice.
Commissions open!
EDIT: I was able to get vaccinated! Read here Commissions are still open as I'm looking for safe work from home options! Please visit the links below to support me! Especially my ko-fi! ☕🐶 I’m still looking for a job; preferably work from home, since I’m allergic to the covid vaccines. T-T My doctor advised against me getting vaccinated, even with an EpiPen available. So I have commission slots still open for digital or traditional art. Shipping is always free for traditional pieces. Check out my commission terms and either note me or order through my ko-fi! Please check out my etsy as well. I’ll be adding new stuff soon!
Still here. Mostly? Stay Creative!
Getting used to this new format. Easier on my eyes thankfully. Dark mode needs to be more of a thing. Less migraines while being on the computer. Thank God! Just working offline staying creative and taking time. Make sure you all do the same! Not everything needs to be uploaded, but its always worth to sketch it out. :) Remember to relax and not owe a Raccoon a ton of bells; unless you know how to make money selling bugs to a goth Chameleon. ;)
Busy as an Art Teacher!
Hi all!
I've been a bit inactive here due to being busy at work as an art teacher! It's a really rewarding job and I'm glad to be able to make some art with my students too. I work with disabled adults and foster kids. It's a very rewarding and challenging job but I enjoy it a lot!
I will be posting art I make at work up here too. And I hope to get back into making cartoons again. So I hope you enjoy the art I end up posting up here.
And if I owe you art, I haven't forgotten, I'm just swamped with work and migraines also. Migraines have turned chronic now and I've been dealing with that stress through art at work as well, as I feel that I

Best of luck in your school and weight loss ^^
I've been thinking about going to a gym myself after gaining a little more weight. But, work is more vigorous then before and I've been walking long distances every day, not to mention I never take the elevator up or down in my new apartment anymore ^^
