I'm heading out to Anime Boston tomorrow afternoon! I'm so excited! This will be my first anime convention and I think it shall be fantastic! It doesn't actually start until Friday but I'm heading to boston to pick up my pre-registration tomorrow afternoon :)  Ah I can't wait! I'm so excited to see all the cosplayers, artists alley, and attend the three raves over the weekend! Also I turn 18 next week, so being allowed to attend Anime Boston with my boyfriend unsupervised for 4 days is my birthday present! <3 I hope it's as fantastic as everyone tells me :)

Utrecht Scares Me TToTT I went into Boston yesterday with my family loaded up with ALL of my Christmas and leftover birthday money to buy supplies at Utrecht. I had one $50 dollar gift card and the $120 dollars I'd saved. I picked out a reasonably sized amount of supplies. Some tubes of oil paint, 1 set of 4 brushes, disposable palette, 1 sketchbook, 1 small jar of medium, and a canvas.... The grand total rang up to TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTY NINE DOLLARS! O_O My Dad and I nearly had heart attacks... I frantically began putting things back to lower the total. I came away with a jar of medium, far fewer tubes of paint, 1 tiny canvas, and the set

I recently logged back into my DA account after nearly a year of leaving it completely alone to fend for itself. I glanced at my old work from roughly a year and a half ago and cringed. All 3 pieces have been moved to scraps. I am now working to upload my most recent work from my art portfolio which I applied to art college with. I also intend to upload sketchbook work and personal pieces more frequently if I can. I also dislike my old journal entries so I'm writing a new one. I just want to wish everyone Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!
