                <description><![CDATA[ What a strange winter...hot, cold, hot, really cold, colder, colder?, HOT, warm, cold...<br /><br />Needless to say, the weather has not been kind to my immune system. Round after round of something has been keeping me in zombie mode for about three weeks. Good times, people, good tiiimes.<br /><br />I haven't had much new work to post in the last three months. That isn't to say I haven't been working on projects, because I have two paintings in the wings (one of them quite large) and I have a ceramics project that I'm eager to have returned to me. Someday soon I'll have a new object to post, but until then I'll just continue to browse and check out the other brilliant artists here on dA! <br /><br />Truly, some of the work I've seen here lately has blown me away and I love to continue to find inspiration in such an awesome community of artists <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br />In other news, I found out today that I only need six more studios before I'm done with the art program at my university (not done with my degree, mind you, but at least with the studio portion of it)! I'M ALMOST DONE. This is a very exciting revelation <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br />Have a great week, everyone! Stay warm and stay well!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hey, guys!<br /><br />I wanted to thank everyone who's been visiting lately. I'm truly amazed at how many page views I'm suddenly receiving, and how many comments and favorites you've been leaving!<br /><br />It really makes my day when I see comments in my inbox, so thank you!<br /><br />I just wanted to let you know, that I appreciate everything, and while I try to respond to everyone who faves and comments, it takes me a while to get back to all of you. Especially in the last couple weeks...life has...been throwing curve balls from every direction.<br /><br />But hopefully in the next few days I'll be able to sit down between classes and take a look at your galleries as well and return the favor! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br />Have a great night, everyone!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN!? Usually it takes me a YEAR at least to get that many views <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br />This makes me so happy! Thanks for viewing, everyone! I appreciate all the comments left and the works added to favorites! It means a lot!<br /><br />Things going on in art-land...<br /><br />1. I'm making a basket as a fibers project. It's due on Monday. Will it be done? Prooobably not. But whenever it gets done, I'll post some pictures. It's more of a sculptural piece than anything else.<br />2. INTRO TO PHOTO. I finally got into the photo course at Uni -_- That only took...TWO YEARS. I've already learned a lot from the first three weeks, and while I'm still not entirely fond of black and white photography (I'm a color girl, myself) I've really come to appreciate the techniques and process of developing prints. I've also come to really despise dust. Who knew such a small particle could cause so much woe?<br /><br />In other news...<br />Still writing fanfiction. Final Fantasy IV is still getting a healthy dose of loving from me with the new DS release, and if you care to find any of it...I'm pretty sure I put the links up in another journal entry...I'm too lazy to re-post them right now ^_^;;<br /><br />For photos...my digital camera battery is currently not re-charging and this indicates I must buy another one...but SEEING as I just bought two expensive batteries for a film camera, I'm kind of crabby about spending more money. Until I figure all that out, photos will be scarce...<br /><br />Grawr.<br /><br />If I manage to get any of my black and white prints posted, they may appear grainy. I apologize, it's my scanner's fault ^_^<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Because of this, I can check this page a lot more often, and I'll be able to keep up on my messages! (hopefully)<br /><br />I haven't updated in quite a while, but I plan to post a few photographs and photograms within the week.<br /><br />Beyond that, still working on fanfiction, but...not much else.<br /><br />I'm a bit tied up with Chaucer, Defoe, and Beowulf...speaking of which...I should probably be reading ^_^;;<br /><br />Have a great week, everyone!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ It's been a great summer so far, but sadly it's approaching its end. Classes start in three weeks, and while I am, admittedly, twiddling my thumbs, I'm not ready to go back to the daily grind of buses, hauling heavy supplies, and the chaos of the city.<br /><br />The temperatures already feel like fall, and I keep thinking that there were so many things I wanted to do this summer that I never did...I was going to finish at least three paintings...I'm not sure how that's going to work out with the time I have left...This is always the crunch time of summer for me when I suddenly find motivation that I wish I'd had back in May.<br /><br />In other news, I have finished my epic and very long fanfiction, "The Summoned Land" and am now on a bit of a hiatus, drawing plans for the upcoming round of fanfictions. And as I am currently in an emotional slump of equally epic and doomful proportions, most of those will probably be filled with large amounts of angst >_><br /><br />But...the wheel keeps on turning. Hopefully things will get better, and this fall brings a happier season in my life than previous semesters...<br /><br />(plus, returning to campus means consistent access to high speed internet, and therefore more artwork posting on my part)<br /><br />Have a wonderful evening everyone. Enjoy the Olympics!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I absolutely suck at keeping this journal updated...<br /><br />Let's see...what news is there to advertise...<br /><br />1. I passed last semester--HURRAY! It was getting a bit scary for a while if I would even SURVIVE through the end of finals.<br />2. I've been working on fanfiction and have almost completed a two year project.<br />3. I've completed one painting, started two others, and have plans for yet another.<br />4. My photography has slowed down considerably, but may eventually start up again...providing I can get my lazy butt out of the house and remember to charge my camera battery.<br />5. I have watched three seasons of Bones, watched seasons 1-10 of Stargate SG-1, all four seasons of Stargate Atlantis, finished two seasons of MacGyver and begun an unusual descent into anime. It frightens me how much TV I've watched this summer on my computer O.o<br />6. FFIV was re-released for Nintendo DS!!! It is shiny and awesome and it's been consuming my time for the past week or so.<br /><br />And there you have it...my summer thus far <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br />Boring entry. Oh well.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Fall has arrived and with it a whole new semester of classes and a lot of work to be done. <br />
<br />
I haven't been too active lately. College is eating up all of my energy and my time, so it may be a while before any more traditional art goes up. I'm planning on taking some more wildlife and plant shots this weekend so we'll see how those turn out and I may post them within the week.<br />
<br />
I'm also going to attempt doing a piece for breast cancer awareness. It's taken me almost seven years to get working on a piece for this cause, and I figured it was due time. I'm currently working on finding resource images for the project and it might not even be finished until November...but that's something I'm going to be working on in my spare time over the next month.<br />
<br />
I hope all of you are well! Thanks for taking a look at my page! ^_^<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I've been a tad bit frustrated with this site for quite a while now. I might go so far as to say I want to leave, but I know that will never happen. I'm too lazy to shut down a site I've been updating for almost two years.<br />
<br />
At any rate, I've taken to checking this site rarely because it seems I get a message, a REAL message, once every three months or so, adding to my persona as one of the wee little undiscovered pages on the web. Perhaps I speak for a lot of users with pages that go unnoticed. Maybe I'll start my own mini crusade...<br />
<br />
Frustrations aside...I'm going to just hammer this through...LINKS BELOW TO TRADITIONAL ART, I AM NOT SINGULARLY A NATURE PHOTOGRAPHER, I'M ALSO AN ART ED MAJOR WHO WORKS IN MANY MEDIUMS, BUT MOSTLY WITH ACRYLIC PAINT.<br />
<br />
Also, thought I should note--that favorite deviation of mine posted to the left??? That's not a photograph. It's a painting.<br />
<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Been out of classes for three weeks already and good grief I've been busy. I don't work a forty hour work week like most people I know, but I've kept busy enough. (and my job doesn't give me that many hours anyway)<br />
<br />
I finished one painting so far this summer, and that's quite an accomplishment, as paintings take me an incredbly long time to complete. I've also completed the first chapter of my novel...again. That is also great progress. I've read one book (haha, how sad...), done a lot of gardening, and my fiancee even got to come home for a week and visit!<br />
<br />
At the moment I'm recovering from a long stint of eating way too much food, and junk food at that, while trying to get myself back into a healthy routine again...my body's pissed.<br />
<br />
I plan on working on two more paintings in the next few weeks, we'll see if either of them gets done in that time, and afterwards, I'll be heading off to Texas. I'm wrapping up a flower series of paintings, and then I'm moving on to mythological subjects. I owe a coworker a dragon ^_^ And I think two other people as well...<br />
<br />
This is fairly random, but if any of you want some reading material and are fans of the video game Final Fantasy IV, you can check out a fanfiction of mine based on the character Rydia here: <a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2805280/1/">[link]</a><br />
<br />
I'm too lazy to post it here when it's already up somewhere else. Therefore...clicky, clicky.<br />
<br />
I believe that was all...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ My camera has decided to break...work again...break...work yet again...and break. This destructive cycle has been ongoing for the last week and has put me into a state of high concern. IT HAD TO BREAK WHEN THE FLOWERS ARE COMING UP!!! Hopefully it will keep working long enough to get some tulip shots and other things...and then I need to take it in for a check-up and find out what the heck is wrong with it.<br />
<br />
Until then...I am a bit of an anger ball. I have a lot of photos to put up in the next few days, mostly from this entire month. I've been a bit lazy when it comes to editing and framing...and I am still on dial-up and that just...well, sucks.<br />
<br />
I'll post stuff soon...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I think what I may end up doing is going through my gallery and framing all of my photographs...This could be daunting as there are so many.<br />
<br />
Also, there are a few that will be edited that I was GOING to do a long time ago, but got distracted.<br />
<br />
I've been meaning to do a lot of editing and re-shoots, but somehow time slips away from me without me realizing it. <br />
<br />
This will probably be a summer project, so if you see things changing, or familiar shots being reposted in different editions that's why.<br />
<br />
What else...<br />
<br />
hmm...<br />
<br />
I also plan on learning how to use photoshop...FINALLY. Well...learn how to use some of its functions to some degree of competence. That's another thing to note, none of my photos are digitally altered in photoshop. Some photos, the only changes made to the original were color balance, contrast, and in some cases brightness. There's a lot I'd love to do with some of them in photoshop, but that will probably be something else to do over the summer.<br />
<br />
That's all I've got for now. I should really be working on my art homework...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
Am I the only person who spends their week off doing housework and catching up on things that have needed to be done since January and are just now getting done?<br />
<br />
Oh well...<br />
<br />
I've been doing some writing lately. I probably won't post any of it because I'm strange and dont' like posting my writing a whole lot, but now that spring is coming and things are growing I'll have more photos again. It feels like ages since I've had things to post consistently.<br />
<br />
As for artwork...uhh...working on it. Class keeps me busy and doing anything on the side is just more work so...yeah. <br />
<br />
I suppose that's it for my monthly update! I'll keep you posted!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! Hope you're lucky enough to see your significant other today if you have one! For the rest of you...I hope you get as much chocolate as possible! And for those of you who don't like chocolate either...I have nothing for ya.<br />
<br />
Haha, I'm just a bit bummed...my fiancee is half-way across the country from me training with the Marines. Ahh well, I know he loves me long distance anyway ^_^<br />
<br />
On a non Valentine's note: I might have more pieces to post in a little while! My art classes have been keeping me extremely busy the last three weeks. I've already finished one project that consisted of eight separate drawings, and I'm busily working on constructing a stapler out of illustration board for 3D. When these are done I'll upload the results. <br />
<br />
I'm enjoying my life as an art major these days! I'm busy as all get out, but it's fun. As long as I don't think about how much I spent on supplies, I'm good.<br />
<br />
And that's just a short mid-winter update on my end. Hope everyone is doing well!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I recently finished an 18 x 36 inch painting, but for some reason...my camera bends the image, making the lines not entirely straight. This is a cause of great frustration.<br />
<br />
At any rate, as soon as I edit the photo, I'll put that puppy up. Took me a good six months to complete (mostly because I got distracted by school...and life)<br />
<br />
I've got another on the way, a much smaller canvas, and most likely another two following close behind. I've felt rather lazy on this site...I haven't taken many pictures for the last two months.<br />
<br />
I'll get back to it eventually...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I think this Thanksgiving weekend I'm going to attempt to learn a bit about photoshop. I've used it for very few things, mostly removing red eye and re-sizing ever since the HP Image Gallery debacle that was October.<br />
<br />
Now that my computer is fixed, running smoothly, and I have some time, I think I may finally kick myself in the butt and fiddle around.<br />
<br />
Yeah, for all of my previous photos? Next to no editing, just re-sizing, and whatever else I was able to do on Microsoft Paint of HP Image Gallery, which is no longer on my compy ^_~<br />
<br />
I really want to learn how to do layers...<br />
<br />
Plus, I'm backlogged with DOZENS of photos from all the way back to...the beginning of October? I'll start to get them up eventually, maybe edited a bit...<br />
<br />
I really need to start updating all my websites...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
Well, if that explains at all what I've been up to and where I've been, that's why I haven't been around much lately. <br />
<br />
I have 100 deviations to sift through right now, so I'll be getting to all of your work as soon as I can! I promise!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Yup, yup. An official journal update. My photos have significantly slowed down for a while (I'm sure some of you are relieved ^_~). I haven't been carrying my camera around mostly because I'm trying to milk this battery for everything it's got.<br />
<br />
Anything I put up within the next couple weeks are photos that have been sitting on my hard drive for a while. There are lots...I believe I have about four or five thousand photos on my hard drive right now...and there are lots to sort through. My Pictures is eating my soul at the moment...<br />
<br />
However, so saying, I'm going to another wedding this weekend and that means more wedding photos!!! Oh dear...<br />
<br />
We'll see what happens.<br />
<br />
As for traditional art...I'm currently working on an 18x36 canvas. It's the largest canvas I've worked on yet, and it's a full panoramic landscape. I've never done a panoramic landscape so we'll see how this turns out in the end. Could be a couple more weeks before it's remotely near completion.<br />
<br />
There are a few more painting projects under development but who knows when I'll get around to them.<br />
<br />
That's all for my update! Have a great night, everyone! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I'd just like to announce that I am back from a week long absence...<br />
<br />
My modem was zapped in a lightning storm, and I didn't have a chance to look at anyone's galleries, let alone get on a computer, for the past week.<br />
<br />
I'll try to get caught up on the new deviations as quickly as I can!<br />
<br />
Hope everyone has a fantastic Wednesday! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Now that it's almost July, thought I'd update on the progress of some things...<br />
<br />
Now that I've been on vacation for a month, my camera and I have been having a lot of adventures together. Unfortunately, my poor hard drive is becoming more and more filled up with photo files!!!<br />
<br />
I am currently working on...six paintings (I think it's six, I could be wrong), but they are fairly slow going, and some of them are very, very large. They may be done within the next two months, so I'll keep you posted.<br />
<br />
May also have some more sketches and other drawings up to spice up my otherwise photo dominated gallery...<br />
<br />
Maaaaybe I'll even post some writing, but I don't know if I'm that bold, haha, we'll see...I should probably start to own up to that "fantasy writer" title I've given myself.<br />
<br />
aaaand I'd like to thank all of you who have found my page and have commented on my deviations, I really do appreciate it! ^_^<br />
<br />
BUT I MUST WARN YOU ALL, I may be a bit slow for a while to browse other galleries and comment, life is very busy right now and I have limited internet access at the moment...<br />
<br />
perhaps within the next couple weeks I'll be able to give everyone's galleries a good look through ^_^<br />
<br />
Have a good one, everyone! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Phew! That was an unbearably long semester, glad it's over! I'm still working on multiple projects right now. Although I AM getting some fanart worked on! I'll probably start swaying back towards traditional art by mid-summer (when things might start to get finished).<br />
<br />
Recently, however, I've been doing a lot of writing (as my profile says, I'm a fantasy writer, I just don't post anything O.O), so that's been a big time eater. Not that it's a bad thing, I'm finally breaking down the writer's block!<br />
<br />
Buuut, to tide me over in the middle of all the paintings, drawings, writings, and other madness I'm creating, my camera still accompanies me everywhere I go to be used at any given moment (I've started carrying extra batteries ^_^)<br />
<br />
I will note that all of my photos on deviantart are small because I'm on a dial-up connection, and can't handle the submissions of much larger pieces. That's why the smaller views may appear a bit blurry, sorry about that!<br />
<br />
Aaand, with such a wonderful day outside I may just have to do some more gardening... *scurries off* ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Alright, haven't changed this darn thing since February, figured it was about time. Anyway, I'm sure some of you noticed that my gallery is filled with photographs...yeeah...<br />
<br />
second semester has been unbelievably busy and stressful, sooo...no fanart finished as yet, no paintings started or being worked on at present, and no writing material I'd like to submit either. But since photos only take me a few minutes to do, they're far easier for me to take and submit ^_^<br />
<br />
You'll probably be seeing quite a few of them in the next couple months. <br />
<br />
Once summer rolls around, I'm getting back into my groove and I'm hoping my muse comes back!!! I need inspiration!<br />
<br />
We'll see. I may mix things up a bit soon...don't know ]]></description>

<br />
I may do some other versions of it, maybe keeping the stem black and have the flower itself by vibrant red. We shall see. I'll post all versions here when I've got them! ]]></description>
