poor, poor neglected blog

hi friends, yes I'm still around. I feel bad for neglecting my blog, but 2014 wasn't exactly a wonderful year. I barely created anything, too much stuff was going on in my life and the last thing I felt like doing was art....which is strange, because alot of artists like to lose themselves in their art when times are hard.
All my plans for the year were derailed, I neglected yoga, eating healthy, and journaling daily.
Well, it's a new year, so let's not dwell on the crapola that was 2014, lol!

So, here we are in February, and I'm loving this winter. It gives me an excuse to stay in and paint, which I have been doing. I'm a bit slow on the journaling at the moment, but did manage to get something done for Valentine's Day...
 Not everyone has a significant other, so I wanted to remind people that the most important person in your life, is you.

This next one I couldn't decide if she was going to be a witch or fairy...in the end I didn't want to ruin her hair with a hat, so I threw some wings on her :-D
 Lots of layers and texture, it felt great to get out my gold leaf and glitter and just play.

I miss blogging, it feels much more real here. I'm on Facebook, which I had sworn I would never do, but had no choice as one of the art classes I wanted to take was going to be held there, and eventually, after trying to be 'anonymous' just gave up and took full part in it, but I find it harder to write stuff.. Everything moves so fast, and it's just not the same as blogging. So whether anyone reads this or not, I think I would like a place to just document my year, and maybe share some interesting information I find that may benefit someone.
If you are still reading, thank you, and bless you.
