Mojo is back!

3 min read
Art is a joyous phenomenon.  When you don't do it for a while, you tend to feel lost.  That's how I felt when school started last fall.  Because of my heavy course load for my first semester (a whopping 16.5 credits!!!), and being distracted by a loser "boyfriend", all my time was consumed by homework - and nothing but HOMEWORK! I was lucky if there was any time to practice my violin.  Last semester, I took on the same course load - except I had broken off the short-lived escapade with said loser - and passed all my classes with much better grades! Recently, I received an email from the Dean of the College of the Arts stating I had made the Dean's List for Spring 2019! Talk about excellent news! Seeing that recognition of my accomplishments inspired me to work harder to keep my grades up and bump the GPA even higher.  My goal is at least a 3.8.  

*Side note, I'm going to university for a Bachelor's in Music Education*

Since I got through 2 semesters of crazy, and a summer class, I finally managed to find my drawing mojo.  I resurrected a character that I had invented several years ago, and will be sharing before school starts.  Finally finished at least one request - I think from here on, the rest of those requests will be hand-drawn, not completed digitally.  Digital art takes a little too long sometimes; and usually, there's a little more heart in art done on paper.  Not only that, but there's an abundance of digital art in my gallery; time to vary it a little.  Another character coming to the gallery is my alter-ego named Dreamer - which you can see in my DA icon.  I had shared a little about her probably some time last year, but she needs more prominence in this portfolio.

This coming semester will finally be a little lighter on the credits, which leaves more free time to draw and balance out my hobbies with school responsibilities and work.  And while I'm in the process of announcing new artwork and characters, I should mention my recent obsession with DuckTales 2017.  This is a show I had no knowledge of until a review on YouTube popped up from one of my subscriptions.  Decided to check it out, and I fell in love with it! So add that to the list of fanart coming to the gallery! Maybe I should do a character mashup?  

So that's basically my life so far.  Excited to get my degree and at last live the life I was meant to live: teaching and performing!

Thanks for reading my little ramble! Stay tuned for more artwork!

Wow! Just wow!

It's been a while, and a loooong while at that.  Ever since I got started with school, I haven't had a chance to draw, let alone have time to myself.  I've been getting that itch to draw again - I miss it so much! For those of you that made requests, my sincerest apologies to you all.  My plan was to have all those done before I even got anywhere near university education, but that didn't go as planned unfortunately.  Once my time frees up after the spring semester (and I get a better tablet; the wire on the current one is messed up), I'll be diving back into the sketchbook.  I'd honestly love to draw tonight, but work beckons me early tomorrow.

My hiatus will be coming to an end this summer, and I can finally be a part of the Deviant Art community again!

Hello all!

As the title suggests, yes, requests are now officially open again! This time, they're open year 'round, and I'll do them whenever time permits.

The requests are for the following franchises (OC's included):

 Sonic Battle Running Animation             Sonic
TMNT Icon              TMNT

Raving Mickey Disney Avie              Disney

Marvel (2012) Icon              Marvel Superheroes

DC Comics (2005-2012) Icon              DC Superheroes

Rocky              Looney Tunes

GIF Steven Universe - Have a Great Weekend!              Steven Universe



Just like last time, there will be reasonable limitations.  That means: NO hentai, yaoi, yuri, gore, blood, creepypasta, or anything that might negatively affect sensitive individuals (myself included).  That also means no Sonic.exe! Art should be nothing short of amazing! ;)

I'll be working on previous requests in the meantime, but go ahead and throw your ideas at me! Let your creative juices flow!

As the title suggest, yes, I actually have some free time! But before I get started with my rant, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Okay, so my drawing mojo kind of went dormant for a while, but I'm starting fresh this year.  I'll be reintroducing more art and comics and continuing shelved projects, but this time on a more consistent schedule.  My luck with jobs has taken a downward turn in the last year.  The last job I worked was your typical nightmare job - meaning two of the supervisors were absolute buttheads and bullies! Honestly, I was great at the job, but because one person had to be a passive-aggressive, lying, scheming, etc etc etc, jerk, I lost my job.  (Sorry, had to get that off my chest...) Next job was a 3-month probationary that just didn't work out that great.  But I'll spare you the boring details of that.  

But that's okay, because now that I'm out of work, I can play......sort of.  I do have some artwork that I drew in my "horrible job" period, mostly hand-drawn.  Basically, what you can look forward to is more comic art, Sonic fan art, and a new character will be coming to my gallery soon! Her name is Dreamer, and that's all I'm saying about it. She's not fully developed as a character yet, but maybe the introductory drawings will help you get acquainted with Dreamer.  She's probably my most original one yet! =D

So that's my little New Year's rant and reintroduction back into the Deviant Art world! See you guys in the coming weeks!

*Requests closed as of 11:59 EST, 9/22.  I will be doing a new week of requests in October, and working on the current ones!*


Hiya peeps!

I am now taking Sonic the Hedgehog art requests! I'd been meaning to post about it, but never got around to it until now.  

However, there are some limitations, all within reason of course.

Here's what you can request:
-Any portrait-style or single Sonic picture (i.e. him running, Dark Sonic, Werehog Sonic, sniffing flowers, etc)
-Sonic with one of his pals or rivals
-Funky concepts that no one has thought of yet
-Crossovers with other characters

What you can't request:
-Yaoi (there are plenty of artists who will do that for you, just not me)
-Sexually explicit content
-Anything that may be disturbing to sensitive people (i.e. violence, gore, blood, etc.  That means NO Sonic EXE!)


So there you go! Pummel my inbox! Specify whether you want digital color or graphite sketch (I specialize in both).  

Requests are open from 9/16 to 9/22.


Can't wait to hear from you all!
~Gigi
