Finished – Melting Butterflies

It took me a while to get back to blending this in, I of course, was busy! I especially love the bottom butterfly 😍 the colors are amazing! I haven’t had time to post this beauty, but I’m so glad I finished it. Casually illustrating for the fun of it has helped ease my mind,…

Hard To Explain

What is the biggest challenge you will face in the next six months? To put simply, and not give too much away – patience. There is something coming, and it’s great. But it will require everything from me, just about. I am ready, but the moment isn’t here. So I have to wait. Waiting can…

Is This a Dilemma?

What do people generally believe sustains us? Is it working and shopping, or something unseen? Hi, I’m JCS, living proof that the system maintains nothing, and I maintain myself. You’re thinking…that’s impossible. I’ve done what I’ve dreamt of just about without breaking my back. Another store is closing near me. Forever21 is closing one more…

From Visions

Write about your dream home. I have a very vivid imagination, and I value it deeply. Some will have ideas they have seen, I have solely my cerebral cortex. I know exactly what it looks like inside and out – high arching windows, stone, high arching ceilings, marble, granite. A spiral staircase, simple…elegant. But seemingly…

Old Hobbies

Are there any activities or hobbies you’ve outgrown or lost interest in over time? From the age of six, both of my parents taught me to sew, crochet, paint, illustrate, and introduced me to jewelry making. I stopped briefly, or made things occasionally…but I’ve just never stopped at all. I started writing when I was…

Create, Finish

What is your mission? In this life, I hope to achieve finishing anything I create. Especially when it’s something I’m passionate about. I had goals set when I was younger, but the system built by man seemed faulty, and made up. I’d come to this conclusion at the age of 14, but I’ve always been…

Happiest

When are you most happy? Whenever I am in the presence of my significant other, or early in the morning, when my boys clamor into my bed, with sleepy faces and quiet responses. When I can rest, and clear my mind. Feeling the ache of my feet. Whenever I think about how far I’ve come,…

Not A Fan of AI

What technology would you be better off without, why? I’m positive I’m not the only person who’s said this… We can do without AI. From my experience, it’s biased, which means human error has been toggled into the programming. I used to detest Photoshop, and now I find more and more “artists” are using AI…

Create Love

Originality is the overture of my life – it will remain so until time starts over. At that point, it will mutate and become malignant growth to continue on. With that being said, I abhor ignorance and manufactured bliss. Is it that hard to be yourself? When something has shaped you, and the output you…
