I just want to thank all of you that have shown compassion to me after Ted passed away. I love all of you, you are all such loving and kind people and I wish I could know you all better in real life! 's for all!!!!

Also, I got another entry for my contest!!! Check it out below!


I woke up this afternoon to my little green budgie, Ted, dead...
Bill, his companion , has now lost two of her friends. (Her first, Hanibal, died last March) And I've come to the conclusion that I am just not a bird keeper.
I have better luck with the scaled and furry creatures...
So I'm giving her to my friend Justin. She might have a better life with him since he has a few already.
I can't tell youhow depressed I am about this right now...it feels like my heart is wrapped in iron straps. (I know that sounds really emo, but I'm really attached to my pets, regardless of what they are and I'm sad, so anyone that doesn't understand how it feels to lose a loved one can bugger off!)
I'll be better in a few days, most likely, I just need to grieve and clear the air. Thanks for listenning...

Also, since there are a few people entering my contest that might need an extension, I've decided to extend the contest to JUNE 8th!!!
It's an extra week, so hopefully that will help.


JUST A REMINDER!!!

YOU HAVE UNTIL JUNE 8th TO GET YOUR ENTRIE(S) IN FOR MY CONTEST!!!!

I only have two entries so far and I really, really want to see more, so I look forward to what you guys come up with!

Thanks and best of luck to all of you!

Out of the characters featured in the link, I'd like to see your interpretation of them in PERIOD GARB!!!
It can be any period you want, and you can draw them in any style as long as they still look like my characters and you give me credit for creating them of course!!!
You have until JUNE 8th to enter!!! Thanks!!!

I have added simple Bio's to all of my characters now, and more detailed ones are on the way. (I just have to spend more time developing some of them, lol) Hopefully this will help any that are wanting to enter my contest, but are unsure of what the character is like!



Another entry for my contest! Yay!
I can't wait to see what the rest of you come up with!




Enjoy!!!






Just an FYI, I have a new Stock gallery for everyone to use if they want! It's a Nature and Texture Stock gallery, and all I ask is that you give me credit if you use anything there!!! Thanks!

Then, on top of all those for other people I'm working on numerous peices for myself, since I'm sure you all can understand that doing nothing for yourself and everything for others tends to dry you up pretty quick. Not to say I don't love doing for others, I do!!! I just need breaks for stuff I want to draw, just for me, too!

Sooo, as you can see, I'm uber-busy! Working has taken over a majority of my time unfortuneatly, but I am trying to get these done as quickly as possible, I swear! Please be patient! Thank you!
