I have been gone for so long.... I miss art. I miss drawing. I miss getting BETTER at it. I miss reading nice notes from the community and finding new favorite artists. The reason I'm not on much? I'm teaching.  8th grade science in the ghetto, to be exact. Most of the time, I really love it. My hope is that after this year (I'm working on my Master's) I will have more time to do what I want to do and grow, and can afford to spend less of my creativity on my kids-- though, they do deserve it.

Thank you to all of you who have left me such sweet comments! It makes my world better.
