I'm pretty proud of it! 
I have done other things but haven't been 100% proud of them, so I haven't posted them, maybe I will someday. I'm working on my final now, which I should post the charaacter sheet for... in fact, I think I will! 
Twitch, Life, Whatnot
So, it's been sooooo long since I've done any updates over here in deviantart! Despite the fact I *think* I still pay for premium.... ah well. Hello anyone that's still lurking around!!!
I wanted to just have a bit of an overview of the last few years! It's been a bit of a rollercoaster - moved to Michigan, had a cool job there, broke up with my bf, moved back to AZ, freelanced poorly for awhile, got a job in Denver, loving it! Still managing to pull off this whole "being an animator without being in Hollywood" thing so it is absolutely possible!
I also have started doing twitch streams! It's so fun! I have an animated character who talks w
''To Calarts or To SCAD'' - 5 years later
So, I STILL get comments on a post I made back in 2010 called "To Calarts or to SCAD, that is the question", comments from art school hopefuls looking at schools and finding themselves in the exact same position I was in over 5 years ago. So, I thought I'd write an update sharing my thoughts on my overall experience.
1. Overall, SCAD was awesome
It was awesome you guys. I went there September 2011, with only two suitcases, having never been that far from home by myself before, having never visited Savannah before, leaving behind a wonderful group of friends and one of the best years of my life in Arizona. It was terrifying, but it was worth
Oh hay, how about an update?
Oh my goodness I miss deviantart. I miss making fanart and I miss posting it and talking to you guys. And fanfics. And all that stuff. Why must life take up all my tiiiiiime??? ;____;
So here's what's up with me right now.

I'm doing all the backgrounds myself (all cityscapes, FUN TIMES), and I've done a majority of the rough animation as well. Super nervous about next quarter - I am not very good at cleanup and color (it's essentially the lineart and color phase, f
Green Light!
So, my senior film has officially received the green light from my concept development teacher!
This is a big deal. I have had this film in my head since I was in high school (which was awhile ago). My friend Monyee gave me a playlist of music, and there was this song on it, a beautiful little piano song, and I couldn't stop listening to it. I listened to it on loop. For days. And as I listened, this story emerged in my head. It has changed very little since then, and it has lingered, like a little itch in the back of my skull that wouldn't leave me alone. It's that little itch that made me want leave my old school and come to SCAD….
