I've got several things to share. Firstly, yesterday I had Sable put down. The one who inspired my username, my old lady, that Siamese cat that I've had since I was 4 or 5. It's very, very odd to walk into my room and not see her sitting there and meowing in greeting..but uh, I had to have it done. She was over 20 years old, peeing all over my carpet, terribly thin, snotty, and stumbling sometimes in her walk. So, it was time.
I'll be doing art later, probably, to remember her by. But yeah. She's gone. I'll be probably be getting another cat soon...
In lighter terms, I recently used most of the money I've earned this summer in the daycare to buy a Macbook Pro. The online class that I'm still taking (finishing lesson 7 out of 9 now) encourages students to get out and paint tons of still lifes and plein airs. My old laptop could barely handle Photoshop, so I splurged and got a beauty (to me). It's 13.3", late 2013, retina display, with 16G of memory. I've never had a Mac before, let alone something this fancy, so it's a real treat for me. My studies aren't the most interesting things ever, but I might start posting my favorites.
Lastly, that time of the year is rolling around again. I'll be going back to school in a week or so, this time as a senior. I think I'm ready for it; as usual I feel that I didn't spend my time as well as I could have (though I did try), so I'm ready to give up the struggle and reenter the routine. I'll planning on staying at the daycare until 5:30 almost every day after school during the week, so I won't have much time for drawing once school starts.
Again I'm sorry for not being very active here. I've been doing a decent amount of art but I only upload a tiny portion of what I make now because most of it is not very good/interesting. I should get myself to post more anyway though.
So, have a good rest of the day to whoever is reading this. That's all I have to say really. Once again, thank you for being patient with me.

Kickstarter: Sionnach Abu
Hi! Wanted to check in with you all to let you know I'm still alive. I am also super excited to share that I just launched a Kickstarter to fund the printing of my fully illustrated Celtic fairytale book, Sionnach Abu: Fox Forever! And it's already 40% funded!
I've been working on this for the past year and a half, and I am so excited to share it with you. You may remember I started it as a comic here, but I am pleased to say that it has transformed into a fully illustrated 139 page book instead!
Here's the link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/meorow/sionnach-abu-fox-forever?fbclid=IwAR08uLtn6dhZZiyrjMFwnpt4JmlKhDc8sUSOjceaBmOvMeTyUg
Patreon + Making a Book!
Hey guys!
It's been a very long while since I made a journal. I thought I'd give a quick update on where I am and my future plans. So I've finished one year of community college and I've got one more to go. If all goes well and assume it well, then I'll graduate in the summer of 2019, and head off to a four year art school. Still planning for that to be SCAD at the moment!
To help raise some money and also just because I want to be able to offer more for you guys, I launched a Patreon page! I know everyone is doing it, and I'm not normally a fan of following bandwagons, but it seems like a great idea, so I thought I'd give it a try.
I'm foc
Hey! :) Important Updates
I apologize for the recent lack of updates; I've been very busy between my college classes and work. However, winter break has just started and I'm very excited to learn that I'll have about a month before spring semester starts!
During this time I'm going to try to be more active on here. First of all, I plan to upload a daily a day, perhaps more, so that I can finally catch you guys up to my recent art. I'm still submitting ones from September! So I plan to fix that before next semester.
Also, I'm very excited to announce that I'll be updating my commissions again! I'll put up a deviation soon with the commission types, info, and example
GoFundMe + Change of College Plans
Hi! So I'll say first that a lot has been going on in my life lately, but I'm okay; I have a wonderful, supporting family and I am very, very grateful for that.
I don't want to dwell on it anymore, but I received what turned out to be a scam call yesterday. In short, I was convinced I had received a call from the IRS, and was emotionally bullied into giving away all the money I've earned over the past three years or so.
I'm okay now; I'll be okay. It was just money, I suppose, but it hurts just the same. So if you ever receive any phone calls like that, don't listen!
My mom made a GoFundMe page to try to help me recover some of the loss

Sorry this comes so late, I'm catching up with reading journals. I'm sorry for your loss! But over 20 years old is impressive for a cat! Did you get a new cat now?
