Hello My Lovelies!!!

I have been battling a severe sinus infection the last week and FINALLY started feeling better today!!! Took my grandma out to lunch and even went to play at the park a bit today to take a couple photos. It was such a lovely day with the most amazing blue sky and light clouds!

Donate

I have added a donation pool to my page for anyone to donate points to. Any and all points are used towards giving core memberships to deserving or struggling artists. Until now I have just been paying for them out of my own pocket, but if the community can come together I feel we can help even more artists! I have a special that if you donate 50 points or more in a single donation that I will feature you on my page for a minimum of 1 week. I will also be featuring the artists receiving the membership donations so everyone can see who and why they were given this!
