no hate

Hi.....sorry I haven't been posting, I'm currently doing some research and have literally been sucked into it.

I just wanted to come and post some good news! Prop 8 was overturned!! Yay! And as much as I want to rant about this, I will not but I will let you know exactly where I stand

I am a Christian, by following God's word I am here to love everyone.

I am also a minority...that should say enough to you

This being said, there is never a reason for me as a person to stop what others do because it's against MY morals...see that? MY morals. Civil issues should never EVER EVER EVER EVER be decided by the majority. Hell if they did, I'm sure I'd probably be a second generation out of slavery (I'm like 5 or 6th I believe...maybe more).

I myself will not marry a woman, but I will not stand in the way of any of my many many friends who want to marry someone of the same sex.


I  love all my friends equally!!!! LET'S US STOP ALL THE HATE!!!!!

Till next time suckas

Peace

decisions

Sorry about not posting yesterday, I was in such a bad mood I couldn't muster up the strength to draw. But after drinking a big glass of wine and watching UP (and also talking to a good friend) I felt much happier and it helped me get into a better mood.

My life isn't filled with many tough decisions. Most of the decisions I make are arbitrary or wont really matter later on. So when I have to make a decision that matters I tend to panic......

I swear I'm an adult, I swear. I'll also admit that my life has being seemingly care free...and things tend to get brushed under the rug when I don't want to see them....it's pretty bad.


I promise...I am an adult!

Anyway! It's Mad Men Sunday! And I'm going to finish out my tribute with Betty Draper! Day 35 of 365, Betty

I like this Betty the best. I based it off the Betty from last season. The one that was getting all independent. We'll have to see how this season plays out for her...I think she kind of latch onto a guy right when she was getting all Free Betty on Don...I don't like it. So here's to our very childish Barbie, Betty 

birthday suit

Hello again everyone! Packing is going all right....it's kind of sad that it doesn't look like I've made much of a dent but I have over 20 boxes packed up in the attic

Now it's onto the important stuff...yarn, fabric, clothes, and shoes

It's pretty exciting, by next weekend I'll have a month left in California!! Woohoo!

My mother's birthday was a couple days ago, and it reminded me that my birthday is 2 months away. Okay, I know, 2 months isn't for a while...but with all this moving stuff and trying to get together with people, I'm pretty sure the month of August will go by in a snap. And then moving in September..getting settled...etc, it's going to be a doozy. So I need to get started soon.

I sketched out some designs that I'd like to wear for my big two-four (whoop whoo)

Day 34 of 365, Birthday Suit

1. 60s style brasierre and slip inspired dress. Basically a dress based off 60s underwear but in a classy fashion (and far thicker fabric haha)

2. An off the shoulder surplice dress

3. A modern military inspired wiggle dress...which pretty much is a knock-off of my Fall 2010 line (can you knock off your own things? Is that allowed?)

So peeps! Which one should I make?!

Help me out suckas

Till next time

Peace

i hate packing

There, I said it! I really do. And you would think for someone who has moved 8 times in the past 6 years I'd be used to it.

And then there's this word called settling. I settle every time and quite quickly, then the mess grows and soon

I am devoured.

I'm undoing this process right now...which is why I've started packing a month early (plus I need to send some stuff to my new place! So I need to pack now)

My mother advised me to 'pack like I was going to college', I chuckled to myself. Did she not remember that I didn't really live in a typical dorm room? Through my entire college career I lived in an apartment (of various sizes and occupants)

But my will has been tested, I have to fit most of it in my supah-compact car, Kia, the Rio.

We can do it!!

Anyways, since I am the queen of procrastination, I took time out to draw like I'm supposed to. Day 33 of 365, Peggy Olsen!

Ok, so it doesn't look like her at all...but did I say I was going for likeness? EVER? No, so don't complain. I really love Peggy, ever since she was a secretary for Don, and then a Jr. Copywriter, to now her big bad Copywriter self...she's awesome. Thanks for paving the way Peggy.

Also, she's a trend follower. Watch her sense of style progress throughout the seasons. Her clothes change faster than anyone else's on the show (besides Betty...well sometimes). Good things are coming for Ms. Peggy...I can't wait for this season to unfold!

I also want her to reunite with her baby...oops...spoiler

Oh well.

Till next time suckas

Peace

mad men

ALL RIIIIGHT!
I'm back! And look doesn't it look nice? Okay, so I know that some things aren't as visible as they should be (but they aren't that important so I'm not worried)

Today is a wonderful day! Besides grueling over a hot computer for 3 days to finally get this blog looking snazzy...my favorite television show is back

MAD MEN!!!!! This is the moment I've been waiting all summer...well actually since March for!

Thus why the next few illustrations will be dedicated to this wonderful wonderful show.

Without further adieu (is...is that how you spell it?...I think that's wrong) I present Day 32 of 365, Joan Hollaway.

I must say, my favorite female character is Joan (Don and Peter are my favorite male...yes...Peter). The first time I saw her on screen my girlish dreams bloomed. YES! A full figured woman did actually exist in the 1960s!! Well Joan isn't real....yes, but every item of clothing that the characters wear in Mad Men are vintage pieces, that either the costume designer has found or has had donated.

How awesome is that?!

I love this show.

Till next time suckas

Peggy or Betty are next 

Peace

pardon the dust

Ok, so I got away with it yesterday but I can't get away with not posting 2 days in a row for no reason.


Well not NO reason, I have a reason....


I'm currently updating the look of the blog...notice how it looks different? Well that was an accident, this is not what it's going to look like.


So far it's looking pretty decent, but I'm brand new at this HTML hoo haw so it's taking me a lot longer than I originally expected.


Tutorials are really vague these days man....seriously vague.


BUT I am making progress...it should be done by tomorrow's post WITH a scheduled illustration.


Sorry about the wait!!!!!


I love you all 


Till next time suckas


Peace

phew!

Hi! I'm baaaaack! I had an awesome day yesterday...and man am I beat! 


Good news everyone! I found my Wacom pen! All is not lost! I also got my boxes too! Time to start packing


....it'll be nice to see the carpet in my bedroom again. 


Now since my Wacom pen is back and I can go back to being the normal digital artist that I am, I present to you day 32 of 365, the afrodesiac logo (yes...afrodesiac is NOT uppercase...why? Because I don't like uppercase...it's still the name and it's proper...it's just not spelled with a capital letter...get it?)

What I like about this logo is that it's interchangeable...meaning I can put whatever pattern color or what behind it. Ahh, I love vectors!


Till next time suckas


Peace


(p.s there will be a surprise tomorrow...so tune in!!)
