Been a while

So, it's been a long time since I posted anything. I haven't been drawing much lately. Of course, life has to get in the way. It's hard to drag that inspiration out when I'm constantly exhausted. My day job takes a lot out of me. I love it, but it leaves little time for much else. Hell, I don't even get to see family and friends often. Let alone take on other projects.
With the holidays coming up, I do have 3 requests for pet portraits so far. It'll be nice to do a few again.
Maybe some day soon I can actually concentrate on my art for a while. I'd like to see what happens if it's the only thing I have going on!
For now, I will hang on to my ideas, do what pet portraits I can and see where things lead!

The Yorkie Rescue Yard Sale

So, the yard sale went alright. It was a weird venue for my stuff, considering it was a yard sale...but I did hand out a few cards and got a bit of interest from people there. That was all I was really expecting, so yay me! :P

I've got about 4 portraits to do right now and hopefully they will be done soon!

I'm getting my Etsy shop ready for me to start adding my pet portraits up there for sale. And now I've got a bunch of cards and framed work; maybe I'll start getting into some craft shows or something!

Pictures of my new stuff!

Here are some new pictures!

Beginning sketch of JD!

This is the piece I'm still working on in art class. Still have a long way to go...I'm kind of getting unmotivated with it, but I have to keep going because I know it'll look awesome once it's done!!
