Biography

I am a young single woman trying to make it as an artist and a writer. I draw everyday and hope to succeed in making a living someday from selling prints and commissions of my art- especially from my online store: http://www.etsy.com/shop/JJSketch. My main goals is to run a successful art print business, sell my work at conventions and craft shows, and publish a few books and graphic novels.

I also love to read and write and drink coffee and tea. My favorite pets are bunnies, especially the lop ear kind. But I also love cats. :)

My Purpose

I am an aspiring artist/illustrator and want to write and draw my own graphic novels someday, write a few books, and have a successful art print business. I also want to be able to sell my art at Craft shows and conventions and be able to meet people who love my art. :)

My Interests

art, coffee, tea, writing, reading, cartoons

Job hunt and more

Posted on Mon 13 Sep, 01:52 am

I am still trying to find a job. It's mostly a waiting game right now as I wait for people to call me back or for managers to come back to work so I can talk to them. Everyone seems to be on vacation lately! :)
Trying to sell more art prints on my Etsy shop. Otherwise, not much else going on. >>>

I wanna say thanks again to John, Penelope, and George.  I am still
trying to get a job, but it really brings me hope when someone helps
me out, whether it's a small donation or some help from a church.  :)

Thank you so much for your forum post offering prayers for my friend
who is in a coma right now.  Today we learned that there is another
buildup of fluid around his lungs and they have to put the chest tubes
back in and he has a pulmonary embolism that they need to tend to
which of course is high risk considering he just had 4 surgeries and
still has internal organ damage.  He sure needs your prayers and I
sure appreciate you thinking about him.
