I like taking pictures of food I cook/eat. I sometimes draw, paint and craft things for people I love. I live with a man who just so happens to be the love of my life, so it's pretty convenient.
My current priorities are to be healthy, save money for a bigger home and get back to creating things.

Here’s the thing, I quietly posted items on my brand new Etsy store 8 days ago and waited for strangers to find me. As it turns out, that “stealth” method is awful. It’s quite embarrassing, actually. (My least viewed item has 1 view and my most viewed item has 19.)
With that said, I’m posting about it with my hands over my eyes. I’m scared that this won’t make any difference at all, as most of my Tumblr followers come from the fitspo genre. Still, I need to do something because I’m losing hope in myself and my dream. I’d put in countless hours doodling, sketching, drawing, painting, outlining, vectoring, photographing- not only for the few items currently in my shop, but for other endeavors as well. I’m so appreciative of everyone who has supported me, reblogged my artwork, given me praise, liked my instagram posts, commissioned a piece, and motivated me day in and day out, that I feel like stopping now would be letting my loved ones down. I dream of so much more than the small life I live. I’m a grateful person, but I know I’m selling myself short by sitting in an office 8.5 hours a day, swallowing anxiety and stress.
I have a lot to improve on, and I do hope you stay with me for the long haul.
Thanks for reading ♥
Panda slaps I’m working on.
His name is Pandee and he’s very happy to meet you.
This helps take my mind off of unpleasant things ♥
Putting my childlike mind to work. Been drawing all damn day. So calming and soothing to my soul. Plus, it’s GREAT for brainstorming ideas for paintings. I never want to stop.
1. Random gifts from my sister. Perks of people knowing you love pandas.
2. Newest nail candy. They’re GREAT.
3. Leftover healthy enchilada filling for breakfast. Made with organic quinoa, tomato, onion, black beans, minced garlic; plus shredded fiesta blend cheese and avocado.
Going to Disneyland tomorrow. I haven’t gone since my annual pass expired last year. Since my boyfriend’s work, AKA my friends’ screen-printing company, is treating all of their employees to a Disneyland trip, the devil bought me a separate ticket so I could go along. I’m not super excited just yet. Haven’t been excited for much lately. Definitely in need of a reboost.
