Still here... 

...and still kickin'! I've been doing a lot of artwork and trying to get my art site going again. I've had an amazing financial blessing, which has answered a lot of prayers.

As soon as I get my art site back up I will be transefering this journal to it, so I'll keep you posted.

In the meantime, I've been surfing the net today for a picture of Sean Bean for a friend who wanted to know who he was. I found something rather interesting, and I thought I would post it for your viewing pleasure:

Mr. (Sean) Bean:


Enjoy!

Arrghhh Yahoo! 

What a week.

Due to financial circumstances (which are, fortunately, turning around in our favor) I had to switch my art site from its premium service to non-premium status. Well, what did Yahoo do? They cancelled the whole shebang! That's right, apparently there is no option to actually downgrade; once you cancel the premium service, the whole site goes dead. Needless to say, I now find myself without my art site.

:::: double heavy sigh ::::

There was a *lot* of work in that site. I was even getting ready to offer prints for sale, and now nothing nada zip. I have put most of the stuff I consider presentable on my devianART gallery (which now takes the place in my "Artist" link in the site bar), but you cannot advertise prints from your gallery. What I might have to do is take one of my old Blogger blogs and convert it to a sort of warehouse where I can offer prints of the artwork.

Right now, however, my main focus is to get painting! I've finished some cross stitch designs for Dinky-Dyes, so my next goal is to finish some of these WIP paintings I have lying about. I'm itching to get back to oils, which is my favortie medium. Due to the fact that I have two young children and no art studio, most of my oil painting will have to be done at night after they are in bed. Trust me--young kiddos and oils do not mix!

Later, gators. Off to finish the Dinky Dyes models and get creative...
