change your heart

Hello, tumblr. I disappeared for a while but I am going to try to get more active on this site again. I recently launched a society6 with some of my original pattern work. If you like something I’ve done, I have most of the artwork available across many items. So, want to support local artists, please check it out or promote me. Thanks in advance!

My sister and her husband have been married for over ten years and are unable to have a child of their own. Please share this link to their American Adoptions page and help give two loving and amazing people the family they deserve. 

I painted Dennis' card for his birthday earlier this month. It's a cat-pilation of all our kitties. I think I'll paint other animals and start a new fun project so I can finally start putting things I make up on my etsy. 

I'm not entirely sure why, but I'm feeling optimistic about 2015. I think I'm just tired of waiting for life to happen and am ready to embrace it. In the upcoming year, I plan to be kinder, more patient, more social, work harder on my relationships, and more open to possibilities. While it will be difficult, I'm going to try to rid myself of negative thoughts, save money so Dennis and I can live in a nicer apartment come summer, and get into a full time job that pays more and makes me more personally satisfied. I'm tired of feeling like an extra in my own life, and I need to bring adventure and personal satisfaction back into it. I will no longer settle for mediocrity. From now on, I will only strive for greatness.
