SAI for Mac?
1 min read
Hey! I just got a Mac, because my previous computer broke down (and my university course recommends you get a Mac)... I have tried many drawing softwares aside from Paint Tool SAI and I didn't like any of them. I really need a SAI alternative for Mac so I can continue my artwork, one that is in all ways pretty much the same thing. Does such a thing exist? Can I get SAI for Mac? I'm really frustrated because I have looked far and wide across the internet and nothing has come up.

A Little Explanation. (warning: sad)
2 min read
My dad is dying. He's probably going to be gone before this week is through. I really love him, he's always been the best father ever. I haven't been able to get any art done because I've been trying to spend as much time with my dad as I can. Even though he's in a coma, the nurses swear that he can hear and understand us, so I've been reading him all of the books he used to read to me when I was little. I told you guys back in January that I've been having some serious personal issues, so.. here it is. My dad has had brain cancer for the past year and it's going to kill him. I don't want sympathy, I just want your understanding. I feel horrible that I haven't gotten done the commissions I've been asked to complete, but I also feel I have good reason. Give me one last week and I promise you guys my dad will take up no more of my time. Thanks for sticking with me, I really appreciate it.
Edit: The "I don't want sympathy" comment was more that I don't want people saying I posted this journal because I am looking for sympathy/attention or am just making excuses for not having things finished. Thats not at all what this is about, this is a much deserved explanation for why I'm not making art right now. If you are dead set on believing that I'm making this up for attention or sympathy, you can inbox me and I can easily prove it with a more detailed explanation or Skype/snapchat if you prefer video proof.
Update: I forgot to update everyone because things have been so hectic, but the day after this journal was posted my father passed.

Why I haven't been very active
1 min read
I've been having a lot of personal troubles lately that have blocked my creative inspiration.
I sort of have artists block... and writers block.
and happy block.
It's pretty sucky.
Especially since I'm scrambling to put together a portfolio for University/College.
The only things I've been doing lately are commissions (from one veeerrry patient commissioner... he's been very understanding about my situation and I thank him for everything) and some pixel art (to me the stuff I'm doing isn't very creative... just meticulous).
I'm not asking for anything from you guys, I just want it to be out there that I am having issues and not to expect too much art.
Thanks to the people who made it all the way through this, and who are gonna stick out this dry spell with me <3 Love you forever beauties.

MLP OC Creation Help
1 min read
is a new account I've created to help people make original characters that are creative, WITHOUT being 'OP' or 'Mary-Sue' in most people's eyes. On this account I will be available to help you redesign or update your current OC, and can give you feedback on everything from it's back-story to it's personality.
If anyone was willing to assist me with this project please send me a note.
