... because i tend to forget these things!!!
So yes, overall, it has been a good year.

A bunch of epic highs and some crushing lows… but what’s life without a bit of both?
So, here’s to simply wishing for a better year filled with love, life, art and cheer! (notice how “cheer” rhymed with “year” on that last bit? yes, i’m a poet now)

From,
, in a "i'm lookin forward to next year" mood...17 years on dA... and I finally did it...
One of the few goals I set for myself when I decided to become an artist full-time almost a decade ago was to hopefully be good enough to do art for Wizards of the Coast one day... And that day came last May. For the first time in my life, I was drawing D&D art that wasn't fanart, a personal commission, or one of my OC's... ... after 17 years on dA, I finally had my first batch of official Dungeons and Dragons art approved. The hardest part about the whole thing was having to reply to that first email in a calm, professional manner without giving away the fact that my heart was beating out of my chest. Just thought I'd share it here... specially since dA was where I first really started building up confidence in my art. I made it to Wizards... and I'm happy. I think-- more than the fact that Wizards pays better in general-- the best part about all this is I feel like I no longer have anything to prove to myself... so I guess that's something. Now officially a freelance artist
September 2020 update!
Time for my (what's looking to be) bi-annual update. Not dead, just busy (until last week that is). It's been a strange year so far, but good, all things considered. So now I've been spending my free time catching up on some games I've been meaning to play (and by games, I really just mean League and Warframe), working on some personal art, and just trying to catch up on sleep as much as possible. Hope everyone's been doing fine.
March 2020 update
First update for the year.... My grandfather passed away last month... and I swear, it felt like it was meant to be. We went to China last January for my cousins wedding and stopped by my grandfather's house on the way to the hotel. His dementia had been getting worse for years now, so he could barely recognize us. But I was happy to see him nonetheless. He only just recently retired to China a few years ago when he got much older, but for most of my childhood, he was very much a big part of our lives growing up. We haven't seen each other as much since he moved out of the Philippines, but getting to see him one last time before he passed away was a blessing. I'm just glad he can rest now. Then I lost my hamster last week. I know people might think it's weird, getting depressed over a hamster (that first day was the hardest... having to hold her rigid body in my hands), but I loved her very, very much... the day I decided to take her tiny life into my hands I promised
December Update!
The weather is finally getting chilly.... it's starting to feel like December. While waiting for client feedback from my current project with the studio... I figured I might as well use my time productively.... (LIKE GRINDING THE CRUCIBLE IN D2... just kidding...) So... Agenda for the foreseeable future (in this order): - L5R art for the portfolio (done) - finishing a certain comic for halloween! (done) - realms commish involving mimics (done!) - Warhammer art for the portfolio (which i am also very much excited for) - not really sure yet... I'll get there when I get there - will probably squeeze in Good Omens fanart somewhere in between one of these when i can P.S. - This new journal format is confusing.... HOW DO I POST EMOJIS!? (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻
