ONE word

2009-10-22T13:28:01Z

So...as odd as it may sound, in my english class I have to do a research paper on ONE word..that's right...a word :p. So i'm coming to you guys to see if I can find a unique word to use. The word needs to be easily findable in things such as the bible, shakesspeare, poems etc so it needs to be unique but at the same time a easily searchable word. I have a few in mind myself, but I figured i'd open up to some ideas if someone had a good one! :D I appreciate any help! <33

btw thanks tear, did i tell you I got a A- on that essay? :p

Silly cat

2009-10-19T18:47:01Z

Yep I was greeted in the morning by this adorable ball of fluff against the apartment door.

She knows how to get a good laugh outta me :D.

I find it mildly entertaining...

2009-10-17T22:37:37Z

I just wanted to ask you..."karma's a bitch isn't it?"

Not really trying to be an ass....just pointing a fact out.

You can say sorry a million times, but it won't erase or fix what you did...I forgive you, almost reluctantly, but I did...however, as I said...it doesn't stop karma from paying you a vist that you well deserved.

halp me

2009-10-13T20:58:06Z

Hometown now and then
Two restaurants i've been to

etcetc...

Pondering something possibly very important

2009-02-04T16:41:41Z

So *heavy sigh*

I'm really thinking about dropping all my commissions completely *cept the ones who paid which is only like two, and maybe a few friends* Wiping the ole slate clean.

Why you ask?

After this sudden boom of art which started with some wierd upgrade in my artistic abilities...I realized...that I don't have much of a desire to do tons and tons of poses anymore. I want to expand and draw more, i've been doing alot of realism stuff and everyone loves it! I've doen a few new refs too and everyone loves it! I love the freedom it allows, and i'm sick of "wolf cuddling a plushie" pose...good GOD people there are many other poses you can get other than "laying cuddling a plushie" I mean honestly there are only so many different times I can draw it before I run out of ideas.

So what i'm saying is...I want your guys's take on this...my art has grown in the past month incredibly.and i've had more watchers more pageviews, more people commenting on my art, more feedback more everything.

I think I would do a pose here or tehre, but I like doing full body portraits with shading and furring not these dinky poses of wolves cuddlign plushies.

I feel poses are stunting me and causing me to stress out...if you noticed...I haven't been NEARLY as stressed since I started drawing stuff I WANT to draw and whatnot.

so what do you guys think?

and do you think I could get commissioned for things like pet portraits and protraits, full body pieces of art, full body background and all art, avatars icons etc you name it i'd do it, but not poses not anymore, or for a while x.x

The update :O

2008-11-14T16:20:40Z

Ok so finally a well deserved update :).

Even though it's been a few days....still nothing all too exciting has been going on. hmmmmm well :) as you may of read I got my copy of the Lich King wednsday night. We went to gamestop at 11:30...and waited in line. I must say...I love WoW...and I love to talk about it...but HOLY GOD...these people were scary...they lived breathed and i'm sure if they could, ate WoW...it was almost so overwhelming I was fixing to just leave and pick up my copy teh next day lol...but it also didn't help there was some wierd trenchcoat guy right behind us that smelled like he hadn't taken a bath in about four years....or four million years. lols. So there were people all over geeking out over WoW...chad was trying to not punch anyone, and I was trying to not hypervenilate :p. We finally got through the line and up to teh front...I watched people walk off with thier copies...and watched everything from people licking thier copy, to tenderly hugging and petting it...OH DEAR GOD D: lol. SO that was my first "Hi I waited in a big line full of geeks to get my first copy or a game coming out at midnight" experience. mmmyep

Work is going good as always :) I love this job, it's what I call a "just right" job. It's absolutly perfect in EVERY way for my curent situation. apartment is good as always, nothing much changing there...packing is tough when we are so busy...so unpacking is going very slowly, but it still looks nice in there :) so i'm not worried. I clean it once a week, easy stuffs :)

Still working on commissions, working on a trade pose for Shen...I was still shocked she found my art "good enough" for her to do a art trade :) I am so worried about asking to do a trade with another artist...and upsetting or insulting them by mistake because my art might not be up to par to thiers and tehy might find it a insult that I find a pose of mine a fair trade for a pose of thiers...if that all makes sense to any of you. it's just that part of me that is paranoid of hurting, offending etc others.

Been playing this crazy game while at work called Kingdomof loathing :) I suggest it to every bored person! lol. Our van driver here at work suggested it to a front desk coworker who suggested it to me :3 since we both get awfully bored during the day sometimes, this game sure beats surfing the web :p
http://www5.kingdomofloathing.com tada linkage :3

mmmm what else...I plan to go home...and sleep...and then get online and talk with julie cause I miss hers alerady D: darn you sister seperated at birth!

anyways i'm not feeling very good...I hope i'm not coming down with anything so I guess i'll jet for now...I gotta work on shen's commissin more tonght...man her markings are HARD :(

Thanks to Kir, for reminding me!

2008-11-10T20:47:12Z

This year I want to send out greeting cards, hopefully a card I made meself!!! soooo all my friends and people who want a greeting card, please post your address below.

in case my address is needed, just send me a message on wolfhome, posepro, furcanvas though I dont go there often, or aim nightspiritwings ;) I dont want to post my address publicly since there are some that I dont want seeing my address, and in case you guys are worried: comments on this will be screened so that only I can see for security reasons :p

it's my first time making a greeting card :) of course it'll have my wolf and my bf's wolf's face plasterd on the front probaly with some festive silyl christmas hats so be warned! :3

I promise to write a real journal entry this evening :3

2008-10-30T15:26:35Z

Had to post this...well because I was proud of the furring...lol a cute wolf for apokolips!

you can view it at www.nightspiritwing.deviantart.com too if you want to fav :p

anyways...I was proud of the furring :p, and I think after staring at kesame and coyox's shading on thier feet and head I think i've figured it out myself and how to shade it without looking like "pillow shading" or just...ugly :p

ART RANT...I need your opinions guys :(

2008-10-29T13:39:01Z

Ok, here is my rant...I dont understand why so many other artists on wh or pose pro get tons and tons and buttloads of commissions when they are at the same or less quality as my art...i'm not saying i'm anything special...but I AM saying...that i'm just as good as a portion of those artists that have people practically clawing at them for a open spot. yet...my art sits and sits and sits and sits and sits and sits and then I might get magically a commission, or my friends feel pity or something and commission me. Two of the people who told me they love my art and blah blah blah and they commissioned me, NEVER EVER use thier freaking poses....that makes me mad even more than just not being commissioned in the first place, especially since my art is super cheap....and I mean SUPER CHEAP. The thing is...I work SOOOO freaking hard...and everyone says they love my art and they love my poses, and they want one, but when I put commission info up...people are like "oh wish I had money" ...then they go over to the next artist's post and buy fourty poses. I even did freebies, FREEBIES...and people NEVER USE EM. I have even two styles, more realistic and cartoonish...because people like both styles. and yes my poses [b]used[/b] to suck, and yes they used to be WAY too freaking cartoony, or way too sucky....but I mean LOOK

year 2000:

2004ish...most likely...since I used to stop drawing for LOOOONG periods of time:

2005-2006ish:

again skipping a ton of craptacular poses

2007ish:

as months passed...

2008:
Biggest changes happen here...
at first sorta rocky..

then...woah, nighty adds more style and dynamics to poses? Is that...is that a 3/4ths view? wtf nighty wth are you doing!

A front view pose that doesn't suck!? WOW

WOW there must be something wrong with you nighty, you managed to pull off a FULL pose with a 3/4ths view, and pretty nice looking anatomy...

And...WOAH...is that...emotion?

THEN...the biggest change of all that you've all been scrolling down to see...and why i'm so confused as to why my stuff which is just as good as other artists on those sites DOESN"T FREAKING SELL...

2008, NOW:
Oldest to newest, and some new headshots

http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y150/frozenmainer/stef%20stuff/atherdonescopy.gif

Style changes MOAR here :3

Style takes one big major leap:

even some more realistic ish cartoony things:
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y150/frozenmainer/stef%20stuff/smilenighty.jpg
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y150/frozenmainer/stef%20stuff/lemonfey.jpg

and is it sad...that I have people I DREAM of commissioning me? *especially since some are HUGE commisioners*
here's my list so far:
Oux, Nushaa, glue, leski, kamaria, merr, kesame, fellzor, kaylibane, kasa, blueflamewolf, maple, silence, rin, catalyst, corridor, zynthose, susprisa, aerie, khyote, cobweb, star, katanya, wild, and there's more, but these are people that if I got commissioned would make me feel somewhat accomplished I guess...anyways...as you can see i'm just confused. :/

if you want to view my art better go to www.nightspiritwing.deviantart.com

entry for those not on the friends list

2007-03-04T05:24:53Z

my new job is absolutly awesome, yes it's a call center job...yes we are calling people, HOWEVER we are calling current verizon wireless customers which means it's not the usual telemarketing...so it's awesome, I am already one of thier top sellers and it's only been one day :p. I made six sales compared to our top top seller that made 8 sales I believe, I made three, 3yr contracts with two expensive phonse and one normal phone, and three, 2yr contracts with regular phones and one insurance. I love it, the customers are generally really nice, I only got two nasty calls that whole day and it didn't even matter. :p The job pays well and the hours are very nice...though I DO wish we could work 8 hours instead of 7...however they DO offer overtime...so i might eventually take advantage of that once and a while. Non the less, we will be recieving a new client soon from verizon wireless that offers the family plan, and with that i'll be able to jump into the competition for shift supervisor. I love this job like fourteen million times more than burrells and they are soooo much better and more organized and everything!

oh and.. *counts* 3 MORE DAYS TILL I AM FREE FROM YOU!!! you know who you are!

piccies ^^

2007-01-27T02:46:38Z

here is just three piccies me and mike took with his mom's cam!

yep yep yep so there we are..i'm sure we'll get some better pics of us together, it's just jeromy wasn't feeling good, so mike had the hold the camera and be in the pic...so tomorrow hopefully jeromy will feel better enough to get one pic or so for us. ^^

2007-01-15T05:56:33Z

So lesse I didn't write a entry last night was busy, as I said before things are going alright, tough with the no job but we'll get that soon still waiting on that guy. I haven't been in a entry writing mood really lately, but meh lol. Yesterdaylesse what did we do O.O, well, wait...ponders...curse you bad memory, I'm not sure if it was yesterday or the day before that but me and jeremy went out to get some stuffs, he wanted to get something to eat and figure out my D&D char and then go get some groceries f or the house, and Mike was not feeling well my poor sexymon ;.; so he had to stay home, and he got lots of rest. but it was funny because we were in walmart and he was going down the ailse shouting EPIC QUEST EPIC QUEST! lol...anyways, when we went to big cheese he got a thing of cheesy bread for all of us to have, and it was kinda cool because I got called cute lol :p yea. I get compliments here and there it's nice ^^. ummm lesse what else, I played WoW i'm now level 11 night elf...or twelve not sure O.O but I have my bear form now and it's too much fun :p last night jeremy helped me make my char for D&D and me Mike and him are all going to play, hopefully tonight ^^ yays. I rpd a bit on oasiz...hmmm what else lol, not much going on, we did laundry at mike's mom's house adn got a bit of groceries and stuffs. I'ts been pretty ok here, i'm a bit moody sometimes, it bugs me lol because I have no idea why i'm so moody...Mike had his theory lol but who knows :p ;) Mike is wonderful this morning when I woke him I sat up and he hug glomped me and it made me all happy and stuffs ^^ lol I heart him tons.

the weekend has passed lol and lesse...we are probally going to go over to vms to see if they are hiring still. THe guy said he would call us once he found our apps so i'm curious as to why he never called lol. It's better to push then not push enough anyqways. we also have to go finish the rest of our laundry O.o blarg, but at least I get to see that adorably cute kitten name critter lol. He's like a mini fatty...I lurv him. lol I wanna take him home! he's all fluffy and stuffs...andoh yea laundry..

I started working on my comissions again going to hopefully finish that leopard soon and I gotta work on jeromy's anthro piece ^^ i'm justa bit slow at stuffs atm. I am thinking of starting a painting but not sure what to do so I guess i'll wait.

anyways...not much going on tomorrow just the basics and job stuffs and seeing if I got a reply from that one guy.

take care all!

talk atcha all laters!

sighs merf

2007-01-12T21:26:44Z

so it turns out I didn't have a held check. oh well..it's just, I hate asking jeremy to help, I just dont like asking others, I know alot of them are in tough situations as us and it just bugs me :(. He also seems a bit unsure of it, and I dont like people being uncomfortable with it. I just hope I get a job soon, so I can pay him back and get him somethign or take him out to eat and stuff...though as I said, he seems happier hanging out with us at least...I like that, good friends. *sigh* I just want my job as soon as can be, the guy said he's email me asap...which I hope is within this month...I dont like people paying for our things...and I want to be able to do things and get things and take people out to eat, not the other way around. I have dreams sometimes that we lose our house or we are out in the cold, I know somehow that wont happen, but I cant help fearing it. it's tough, I cant believe I lost my job over something so stupid and cruel. I just hope jeremy doesn't feel strained or annoyed or bothered or anything...we'll make it up to him, I know we will. and hopefully he will always enjoy being here. as for everything else we are doing fine, food is low, but still..we'll make it. Mike tells me everything will be alright, I know somehow he is right, I know that even if there was the worse we'd make it somehow. I'm happy for that. I think that is what is bothering me alot lately, the whole house and rent and no job thing. but we'll make it,...and we wouldn't be making it without the help of our friends, like jeremy especially, he is too kind :P, but I hope he realizes how much we appreciate it....how much I do, but yea

anyways, just waiting to hear from that guy on the job, I really hope it works he seemed EXTREMELLY impressed and said he'd most definatly email me asap. So pray for me, do whatever you do to wish us good luck within getting a job, mike too. he's still looking too.

anyways tonight will just be a lax night, was hoping toni woudl stop by so I could swng by vms and see if they found our apps lol but oh well :/

talk at ya all laters!

stabby stabstab!

2007-01-11T23:21:46Z

Welp I am playing a bit of WoW now, it is alot more fun than I thought it would, it's a bit annoying with my dearest over my shoulder alot saying go here and there and dont do that and wahtnot, when I really want to do things by myself, but I understand he's just trying to help. It's just, I really want to learn and do things on my own, not always being told where to go and him interfering to click around for me, but yea like I said before I understand he's trying to help and I lurv him so i'll let it go a bit. I dont play too much as it is jeremy's computer, and he is paying for it so I only play when he lets me ^^ I feel a bit guilty that my dearest tends to push a bit on using the computer to play, but jeremy will learn to stand his ground if he really doesnt. I want to give him some money when I get my job hopefully at the call center and help him pay since he IS letting us play without paying him atm. I want to help out. I'm hoping to hear from the guy hiring soon! ^^ he says he'll email as soon as he finds out about the training. I hope. it sounded promising and he was like I said very pleased and impressed. I can do it. I played my harp more again, found out slopes is thinking of taking the music thing out, so I may have to wait till later to play in restaurants or wait until we move. But I practice everyday and last night I played Jeremy right to sleep lol. I thought it was sorta cool ^^.

Seems he's happy hanging with us and he is closer and saves money on gas, I just hope he is doing better ^^. He seems happier, he seems more open, it's good I think. I hope he stays more, he's an awesome friend, both me and mike talk together about how awesome he is lol. I know sounds corny but it's true. He's one of the first friends to make me laugh so much, other than my dearest one Mike, daft, manda and skye.

Other than the job and wow and friends things are going well for me and Mike we hit a few rough waves, but as soul mates we solved them out and I understand him more and he understands me more. He laughs and is confused by why I wash the walls, lol I guess I just never had a nice place before other than at my moms or dad and kerrys so i'm super anal about everything here, I tend to drive him nuts with the moving things about and putting things away when he's not done with it lol, but i'm getting better with that.

I'm happy, I say it everyday to Mike, i'm happy, I dont get in fights, I dont get yelled at or anything, we have our little tiffs sometimes, but that's what they are, little, and we tend to joke in them more than fight. We tend to work things out too. I'm really happy, I have awessome friends, an awesome and wonderful and amazing and loving fiance, a house, a possible job soon, things are starting to look up ^^

anyways i'm off to go rp so chatatcha all laters!

woooo!!! glees

2007-01-10T05:11:01Z

so I have totally awesome newszors! I went for my interview today and the guy was thoroughly impressed ^^ he said he liked my resume, my interview so he's going to email me with another interview date and then start me on training! i'm excited! The job has health benfits and life insurance, it pays 8.50 an hr, and it is full time so I will be making at the least 1200 by myself. so this is great ^^ i'm excited!!!! it looks like a nice place to work too, the only thing that irks me a tad is that we call them...but, we are calling existing customers, so there shouldn't be too much of the "I DONT WANT MROE FUCKING PRODUCTS" *hangs up* and more "oh thank you, sure why dont you tell me about it." lol so anyways eeee! and I played my harp today because my harp things came and I got to string my harp and tune it and i'm all excitedzors! lesse what else, no much other than that Mike filled out his resume and stuffs and tomorrow we will probaly go print it off and pass it in maybe, and also talk to toni about getting the harp around O.<. Again nothing too exciting today O.< lol I just cant wait to be working again, I like it. i'm really tired because I was up late last night but meh lol i'll sleep good tomorrow ^^. I guess i'm off for now, chatatcha all laters.

sooooooooo....I may have a job! O.O

2007-01-09T05:00:51Z

Alllllrighty, so I owe it all to jeremy lol who just happen to have to deliver a pizza to the verizon call center and happen to ask if they are hiring...yay thanks so much jeremy!*hugs* basically we all went over and the guy wasn't there, so the next time I went over with jeremy the guy was there, he took a look at my resume and without looking up from it say "I want to interview you" hear that? "I WANT to interview you." lol so I must of been impresive enough to get a interview right off, I got it tomorrow at 10:00 so pray or do whatever you do that I get this job, it sounded pretty promising the guy was all nice and stuffs ^^. He seemed shocked that I said "have a wonderful day" O.o lol guess people are a bit rude? meh, I dont care as long as I get it! the only downside is it is probaly about two miles away...which means two miles walking there, and two miles walking back lol but oh well ^^, Mike said he'd meet me after work and walk home with me so that'll be nice, and hopefully soon he'll get a job. I know he's trying, it's just rough so yea I hope.

lesse what else....jeremy's friend jason came over and hung out for a bit, OH! OH!, at the pharmacy in rite aid there was this asshole guy and he was like "you all suck as a pharmacy" I felt bad so when mike went to get his prescription for his tooth I was all like "you guys rock!" lol and they started laughing and smiled and I felt better ^^ glee!

lesse what else O.O lol we relaxed at home and hung out and played pokemon! lol...and jeremy played funky musics. Oh we also went to eagle hill and I called vanderbilt and fixed my order so my harp stuffs comes tomorrow so I can play musics for everyone and for my sexy man ^^ which makes me happy because I want to play my harp, start performing again and also play special music for the love of my life!

got a bit stressed and ocd over the job thing but now that I got the interview I feel really good ^^. Mike is going to try getting a job there too, but we gotta make his resume up and stuffs, we also gotta check vms again to see if he got anything lol.

anyways things are going good ^^ i'm still happy as can be, I know that even if the waves get strong and hard to fare, I know that mike will always be there and we will row though it all together!!!

I love you SOOOOO much Mike, I lvoe you more than anything my wonderful fiance!
