I'll be back soon. 

Hello guys,


I'm writing from the waiting room of a competition. In the competition, my friend and I have to design an e-book and we have to present it. A bit nervous, but I guess I will be okay.


Since the last journal, I told you about the book I'm illustrating for my aunt. I attended the book launch for hours (due to the fact I'm related to the author and the fact that I'm the illustrator) It was a big deal for me. A really big deal. Somehow it's the start of me getting other people to see my artwork. Not only the book, but there are prints of my artwork shown too. People bought it, and the money was donated to a cancer organization for kids. I was so happy for them and that people actually thought of my work. I was nervous that night, I wonder about how people are going to accept the work I've been doing and what I'm passionate about. Gladly, they liked it. That night, I'd found people run up to me and said that they like my work and they've seen it on the book. I kindly replied with a smile and some gestures and laughter. But, I was a bitting my lip because an art major alumni in my favorite university came.  She asked me questions like, do I like what I do and am I passionate about it. Honestly, I'm passionate about art and I like what I do. Everything got a tad bit annoying when my mom out of nowhere started answering people's question about me, for me. I guess I have to prove something to her.

That night was unforgettable, it was something new for me to experience.


and, there you go, the book launch of the first book I've ever illustrated.


That's all for now,


Keshia S

How are you guys?
Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday to you all!

2013 will be such a big year. I got my first illustrator job this year, and it'll get published on 2013! I illustrated or painted some paintings for my aunt's book. It's not much but it's my first "job" and the first time I get payed by painting (sort of...)

It's has been a great year and I believe things will get better on 2013!

So, you may read my last journal and I mentioned the word "Job" The job is from one of my relative, and I've done about 4 chapters and I still got 4 chapters more to do (tired). I was chosen as one of the committee to prepare for my church's christmas event so, in the committee I'm taking care of designs. And in a few weeks there will be exams for the semester, so I'm completely busy (I want to relax, though)

And I've heard about the hurricane Sandy thing, my prayer goes to them in the East Coast part of US, I hope you guys doing okay!

So, HIGHSCHOOL STARTS ITSELF!

I've never been so overwhelmed in my life. But yeah. Senior high! Got many homework, tests and stuff. Many sketches waiting on my desk to be worked on. I got a job to illustrate (er, I mean giving my work to be put in a book) by my aunt. So I need to work on that (Probably I upload WIP of that here, it's going to be full of human organs and stuff really medical and emotional)

I miss dA terribly. Be back soon.


By the way, The Midsummer Station by Owl City rocks!
