So I WAS FEATURED IN AN EXHIBITON AT MY SCHOOL. I even got to sell some of my litho prints too! I'll be scanning and posting them later once portfolio reviews are over. I've never been so proud my myself before

So now that I've got an actual fuckton of art and not really a lot of things I like from before I'm going to be deleting some stuff, I know not many of my watchers probably think I'm active right now and that's okay! I'm out of the rough place I was once in, and want to delete things I'm no longer satisfied with as a result. Whether that be because of quality or just not what I'm making or right now.

Thank you for your patience!!! <3

Buckle Up Buds

I've got a lot to get off my chest, and I'll try my best not to sidetrack but hhhhoooooo boi
I've been struggling to pay for college for the past couple years, and yeah I get that most people do. But I've been either driving myself mentally in the ground or just free falling into fuck knows where.

It's been hard, my federal loans only cover my tuition costs, and my school requires that you live on campus for a set amount of time, and that's where I've been having issues. Which sucks it really does, and the little to no help the school offers besides that are all dead ends for me, because they seem to magically think I can pull money out of my ass. So then after all these false hopes that neither I or my mum could control, it came down to the ultimatum. Ask someone else in the family for help.

So we did, and we've begging and waiting for months now. But they've got their own issues too y'know? This whole financial aid system for my country is a fucked up labyrinth, that always leads back to the center where you see a sign in glaring red letters stating "Welp, better luck next time". My mother, just to ensure that I could even have the chance of enrolling for the past fall semester pulled money out of her own retirement fund, and god just typing that makes me want to cry all those big fat ugly tears that hollywood likes to hide from you. It hurts, and it sucks, and no way in hell am I letting her do that again. But thanks to that I also got a job as an art assistant who knows my situation and is willing to pay me $10/hr, and then bump that up to $12/hr after a month or so of work, which is nice, but still not enough.

I'm hounding the school day in day out, because honestly their lack of transparency concerning students having access to information or gaining assistance with anything is appalling by every meaning of the word. _{I argued with a woman for 3 months over email because she would never meet me in person or take my calls}

So my current situation is this, since I'm not enrolled currently I have to move off campus. If our current plans don't burn in hell I'll be moving into a new apartment in 2 weeks, pick up another job, and also I'll be opening up for commissions. Yes I do them currently, but never really online as I've got a contract with a tattoo shop. But they know what's going on, and don't mind me trying to make this extra money.

Long Story Short

I'm hard pressed for money that I don't have, actually wished Satan would appear to strike a deal with me, and will be creating a commission sheet in the near future in order to help make some extra funds on top of my jobs.

I miss you dA, why on earth did we ever think breaking up was a good idea? It eeally wasn't was it?

Ah well it's New Years Day yeah? And that's in the past

SOOOOOOOO

After moving into my college dorm, I've been here for a week I can finally breathe!
I've gotten used to my schedule and juggling all the craziness around me, so I'm giving myself a challenge of uploading things once a week or more. We'll see how this works out and if I can even keep up cause i suck and make false promises to myself</sub

On the Brightside!

All my roommates are close friends of mine since middle school and despite what most try to tell us. No we haven't had a fight, and if we ever have a disagreement we're mature enough to talk to each other about it. But the closest thing we've had to that is selecting our beds, which took 5 minutes haha.
