Over the past two months I have been job hunting like a fiend! Unfortunately, it doesn't seem anyone is hiring before the New Year... Le Sigh. Due to lack of employment I am having to leave Toronto and move back in with me Mom in St. Catharines. Cannot say I'm thrilled, but at least I will be able to save some dough. I have quite a few pieces I would like to post! However, due to moving I won't be able to post for about another week or two Excited to be posting some X-Mas gifts I have been working on!!

Until then my Lovelies! Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, if I am not back on before then!!
Thank you Sweethearts

It would appear over the past year I have lost myself. Over the past three years I have been barely drawing or doing anything artistic as it is... have you ever felt as though you've completely lost all of your creativity? That whimsy? Your passion? That's the cluster fuck of emotions I have been feeling over this past year.
My focus has been work, which isn't a bad thing. It does support me and the critters. However, about a month ago, after my contract position (Junior graphic designer) ended and I began job hunting yet again. Only to shortly thereafter have a massive melt down. After receiving a phone call to do a training shift at yet another cafe, I went for the two hour training shift. Once I returned home  and with a few hours of reflection, I couldn't do it. I just couldn't work in a customer service environment again. Retail I could deal, but another server position where you are the one who has to wait on people, majority treat you like dirt on their shoe and busting my (your) ass to barely make rent... No thank you.  Especially right after having a job in a related field that I spent five years of educational studies on and wanting since the age of ten. Something inside me cracked. I spent a good two to three hours balling my eyes out. At first I thought it was because of the job shit. Nope. It boiled down to the fact that I, myself was miserable. I had no passion, barely any artistic drive. I felt dead inside. Just coasting through life.
After this revelation I took some time to myself. I turned down the cafe position, applied for EI and deleted all aspects of social media for two weeks. This was to help me sort out my priorities in life. As an artist, social media is great for putting one-self and our work out there, but you don't realize the horrible habits your develop and checking Facebook, Twitter and Instagram ever 5-10 minutes. There is no reason. It's just habit. To be frank. I want my life back. To be able to look at the world around me and be inspired. So when I get home, I pick up my sketchbook, not sit infront of the computer or on my phone and forget whatever inspired my imagination.

This has been a dismal "Back to Life" journal entry. I apologize. My new goal is to post one piece a week. Whether it is completed, a doodle, sketch, WIP, whatever! It just has to be something!!

So lets see what happens my Lovelies

So I know there's a couple people that are going to kill me for uploading so many deviations at one time... I apologize! Don't kill me! -_-"
I spent all day yesterday going through my artwork, looking for the pierces that I deemed good enough to be posted. They are all from my first year at MTM. Either I never got around to posting it or I didn't get the piece back until the end of the year. So uploading them now... at the end of summer... seemed like a good idea lol I am going to do my best to space out the uploading process over this week.

On another note, I have started redoing the Marie & Me Comic pages. As of right now I have only fished the first page of the EA Prep comic fav.me/d2cxokw in full colour. To be honest I do not like the inking. I'm experimenting as I go, with different styles of ink. We'll see what ends up working best for me However, the use of colour is more to my liking. I would really appreciate feedback and constructive criticism! If you like the comics for whatever reason I'd greatly appreciate it if you check out my fan page --> www.facebook.com/pages/Marie-M…

Love Ya SweetHearts!!

Alright, soo I've been dead for the past little while. I'm starting to get back into my groove. Too many things just go wrong at once that way you down...
Anyhow, I'm going to be posting some of my older work that I found recently and have never photographed, oldies, but goodies? lol
I am also redoing the Shem and Marie comics, which I'm going to start calling Marie and Me. When I get them finished and caught up I'll go into more detail about it... I have a plan. Lets leave it at that lol

I just did a fairly large update on my blog about school and how it went so if you'd like to check it out go here:

Luv You SweetHearts!

So I just realized I reached 100 Devations Wow...
That's insane.
And I'm bordering 5000 page views so I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who has looked at, commented or favourited any of my artwork! Thanks so much guys! it means a lot <3 ^_^

I had a good x-mas holiday. I got to spend time with my mum ^_^ and... SLEEP! Which was wonderful beyond belief lol
New Years however sucked balls. I was sick and bed ridden. So I stayed up till midnight texted everyone and went to sleep... exciting I know lol
Hopefully this week I will have the second comic of Shem & Marie dead-rose-16.deviantart.com/ posted, soon to be followed by the third. We have a feeling it's going to be quite the compilation
It's great to be back at school. Kind of feels like I'm back with the family... They're great people! I missed them all over the Christmas break
And this is my update in a nutshell!!
Hopefully I didn't bore anyone! >.<
And thanks again to My watchers and Random People who have taken the time to look at me shit
Love you guys <3
