Hey guys! I was wondering, if I were to start doing commissions, would any of you be willing to buy one?

I've really been hurting for money lately, and since I haven't had the chance to express myself lately, I'm thinking maybe in between job hunting I could work on commisions.

I'm not talking expensive commissions here... Just $5 apiece or so. Maybe $10-$15 for really detailed stuff.

So, show of hands, yay, or nay? :heart:

Well, it looks like things just weren't meant to work out here in the GTA. So, I'm going to haul everything back up north and try to work my way up from there. Maybe someday I'll make it back here, but until that day comes, I'm going to have to do what I can to make ends meet. I haven't exactly felt as though I belonged here, so maybe going back is my best option. Maybe I took too big a step, and this is my chance to catch up on what I missed.

I've learned a lot of things about myself in the time that I was here, and I've made some great friends. I met people who changed my life; for the better and the worse. I'll never forget the good times I had while staying here, but one thing is certain; I regret nothing. Despite some setbacks and things that weren't exactly easy to deal with, I don't regret a thing. There are some things I might wish to take back and alter, but not for my own sake. I'm happy that I at least gave it a shot, and although I'm not as happy as some people are, I'm still working on it.

Although I haven't got a golden life, it isn't a total shithole either.

I bid farewell to all my fellow friends and acquaintances I've met while here. I realize that there are a lot of things that I would like to change about myself. I want to better myself as a person, but I know that I have a lot of things to deal with before I attempt that. Someday, I'll be at peace. Someday, things will work out. But until that day, I'm going to make the best of what I have now and work my way up.

I apologize to any people I've hurt in the past, people I may be hurting in the present, and people I may hurt in the future. We are not perfect; not a single one of us. We are human. We make mistakes. We learn from some of the mistakes (sometimes multiple times, apparently).

I have a lot of thinking to do and a lot of things to figure out. Someday, maybe I'll be able to answer all the questions on my mind right now, though I doubt it. And I think that's okay with me.

As for my art... once I get everything set up and dealt with, I'm sure I will start shooting papers out of my hands or wearing my tablet down to nothing. There are some things I've drawn that I've yet to scan, so expect an art dump someday. :heart:

I wish everyone the best on their conquests and journeys. My fingers are crossed for my own.

Until next time,
Shadd.

As some of you may or may not know, I now live in Brampton, Ontario.

I had to relocate due to the lack of jobs in my former home. Hopefully, I'll find a job soon!

I won't be able to update as often as I would like, but when I get a computer at the new place (yes, I left my baby behind. *emotear*) I will start finishing my digital portraits.

Sorry for such a short update, I'm not sure what else to write here.

If you want to add me on Facebook, I'm Danielle Julie Beaulieu.

Have a great night, everyone! (Or day, depending on where you live... you get the point.)

- Shadd.//.

As I awoke this morning and realized you were gone
I wondered what life would be like if we were over and done.

And I know that I can't replace your face, your touch, your smile...
I miss you like crazy, I'm lost inside.
I promise I'll wait for you, wasting my time
Trying to count all the tears I cry.

When I'll rest my head tonight this house just won't feel like home,
And I'll lay there helplessly yearning, staring all night at the phone.

And I know that I can't replace your face, your touch, your smile...
I miss you like crazy, I'm lost inside.
I promise I'll wait for you, wasting my time
Trying to count all the tears I cry.

No, I can't replace your face, your touch, your smile...
I miss you like crazy, I'm lost inside.
I promise I'll wait for you, wasting my time
Trying to count all the tears I cry...
The tears I cry, the tears I cry.
The tears I cry,the tears I cry.

I'm slowly getting caught up with school and such.

As some of you didn't know, I was sick for a good three weeks, which really put me behind in my schoolwork. I had to drop one of my classes just so I could stay sane. I'm glad I did it.

Anyway, right now, the main thing going on with me is I recently painted a MURAL! YEAHHH.

If you want to see it, add me on FaceBook; Danielle Julie Beaulieu.

I'll make a montage of it sometime after I get things all sorted out! :heart:

Kiwanis news:
As some of you don't know, I'm a music student. Kiwanis is a Canadian competition for schools to go to every year. It's a lot of fun, but it can be pretty stressful!

The results are as follows:
Senior Band: Bronze
Stage Band: Silver
Choir: Silver and Gold!
My solo, Homeward Bound - Marta Keen, Gold. :heart:

I'm very happy I managed to stay sane for all the performances! *sigh of relief* Now I can focus on marks again!

---- ---- ---- ----

As for art, I'm doing my best to continue drawing and work up some muse. For now, I'm focusing on my trip to Anime North and graduating. Augh, prom! AAAAAUGH. *cries*

Nah, I'll be fine. Just wanted you guys to know that I'm not dead. I am, in fact, alive. See? *pokes self* I'm still here!

To all my watchers, thanks for sticking by. :heart: I'll do my best to update more as I get the time to do so!
