the cuties

I love love love my turtles. They are so awesome. I got them  into the big tank today and they're loving it (even though it's pretty bare...I still need alot of things).


They do have names. I've decided they're both boys...and when the time comes and I find out their sex...they will still keep these names


Everyone meet Miroku and Tsuka



Yessss, these are my babies. In the clearer picture Miroku (the bigger one) is on the left. Tsuka (the smaller one) is on the right.


As of now Miroku is very energetic, loves to swim and sit at the bottom of the tank. Tsuka on the other hand is very mellow, loves to bask and float around the tank.


I love them both so much haha.


About their names...I did name them after some *cough* characters. Look up Miroku on the good ol' Google to see who he is


As for Tsuka, he belongs to me...and this brings us to Day 4 of 365!! Tsuka Anoya


Their personalities match (Tsuka the turtle..and Tsuka..the character) awww I love them both


Okay I promise no more turtle gushing until they're used to me (they're both shy..as you can see in the photos)

till next time suckas!

Peace <3

a gift

Ok, so I had a different topic all lined up and rearing to go

and then a few hours ago my dad walked in....inside a clear container were two tiny turtles

I haven't squealed in delight in such a long time....oh my, I now own two ADORABLE turtles

yessssss...dreams can come true

That being said, I don't know their sex yet, let alone what kind of turtles they are. I'm going to take some pics of them soon...I was playing with them and I forgot I had to draw! Both of them are very awesome and I'm already in love with them

my sweet sweet suckas.

so expect turtle love tomorrow <3

...and btw, congrats once again Lakers...sorry Celtics fans 


Ok, Day 3 of 365, this is Evan <3


I'm going to be frank with you all (haha get it? Frank? Like my last name? Nevermind...>>). I am trying to get better at drawing different ethnicities. With my style it is...difficult. So Evan is supposed to be Asian, Javia is black,  Sadee is actually a mix of European and Native American (what a mix <3) and the other girls well I'll tell you later.  It's going to be a journey.

Till tomorrow my loves

Peace <3

crochet crochet

So, anyone else bombarded by summer weddings this year? I say bombarded because I'm going to two in one month....though I haven't even been to a wedding since 2007 (and those weddings were in the same month as well..strange) ah, never a bridesmaid!...yet. I'm just waiting for those other friends of mine *cough* to drop the bomb on me..it'll happen eventually.


Anyways, so I'm not a rich person...and I've decided the best way to show my best wishes to these couples is to make something for them. Screw store bought things (though yeah, I never did look at their registry..not like I'm making a crock-pot or anything), people want things made from the heart! So, I'm crocheting.


I do love crocheting guys, but Lord help me if I turn into one of them. You know who I'm talking about. Always having some sort of awkward conversation with you and then making a craft related joke that doesn't even fit in? Then the two of you stand around with thick air before you slowly walk away. If I even start to sound like that...shoot me..and make it painful please <3


Down to business, Day 2, June 16th...I present to you: Sadee Eugene <3



mmm...does that look fuzzy? Uh *clears throat* so Sadee...she dresses alot like how I want to dress...well exactly like I want to dress <3

I love her style <3

That's all for today! Tune in tomorrow my loves <3

p.s I will show you what I'm making after the weddings <3

Peace

so this is the beginning

Hi!!


Okay first off I apologize for this being so so basic....I gotta learn some HTML stuff before I can make it look decent and not...boring <3


I'm just going to get going with this. From today until this very day next year you all will be graced with an illustration a day. Yay!!..Whooo!! 


What's the meaning of this? For you..uhm...<3...for me I get to practice and now that I'm out of school it's nice to have a few people look at your work..(you can critique if you want but you don't have to...). So! In these next couple of weeks it's going to be an introduction. Y'see, there are several 'girls' and 'boys' (and 'kids') I draw as my fashion croquis. And let's face it, I'm a nerd...so each and everyone of them have names (etc)


they're my babies (oh what is a single girl to do??)




Soooo, June 15th is the start of 365 days of Illustration! Day 1 starts off with Javia!






Oh? It's in B&W? Yeah...sorry at least once a week I promise to do a color picture (yes even during this introduction week). If it makes you feel any better, she's black (check my facebook if you're able...she's in there <3 )


Thanks for reading! Come back tomorrow! Sadee is next <3
(again I apologize for the basic-ness...it will get better I promise)
