I crave intimacy but I get confused and uncomfortable when I’m shown even the slightest bit of attention or affection.

‘A Californian congressmen has just introduced a law to make it illegal to keep orcas in captivity. This could change everything — but SeaWorld is already mounting a vicious campaign to defeat this congressman’s brave move. We need to tell the State of California that the public won’t accept SeaWorld’s imprisonment of orcas any longer.’

Enact the Orca Welfare and Safety Act to make it illegal to hold orcas in captivity for performance or entertainment purposes

I’ve Received A Lot Of Letters From Artists Asking To Check Out Their Artwork And Their Blog, And I’ve

I’ve received a lot of letters from artists asking to check out their artwork and their blog, and I’ve noticed that a lot of them openly write unhealthy amounts of negative comments about their artwork, it was super depressing, honestly. :( Confidence plays a very very important role as an artist, it’s what helps us learn and grow without the constant feeling of doubt and jealousy! You are a unique individual who must go down your own unique path, and as scary as it sounds, you can’t rely on others to hold your hand all the way through. You are the only one who can get yourself to where you need to go, and beating up your artwork is not the way! Trust yourself and your abilities to make a change, and you can do anything!! Love your art, love yourself!

Don’t Get Me Wrong, I Appreciate Every +Like I Can Get, But To Be Honest +likes Don’t Do Shit For

Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate every +Like I can get, but to be honest +likes don’t do shit for an artist. No one will look through your +likes except you. If you really like an artist give them some exposure, yknow? We work really hard and will appreciate any feedback we can get!!
