Updates!: As I normally do, I am currently in the process of putting together a calendar for 2013. Please let me know if you are interested in one.
In other news,I did a photo shoot with one of my favorite photographers, Le Mew Photography on Friday and have a picture up already (there will be 3 more looks posted from the set):
That beautiful gown is by the amazing www.romanticthreads.com The dresses are far more epic in person and to feel the quality of the fabric and see the detailing up close is amazing.
I am very excited because I just sold a painting that so many people would tell me they are interested in buying and finally someone actually went through with it. Today I'm going to ship out an old friend to it's new home:
I am definitely NOT one of those artists who likes to own a bunch of their own piece. By the way, I have 7 more original drawings in my possession and I'm dying to get rid of them. Not to mention that we need money bad right now.
If you like them, throw a number out there.I am willing to compromise on prices. Cody and I's landlord is in trouble with the bank and put our house up for sale on the 19th of September. We know we have at least 30 days to get a new home, but the uncertainty sucks and if it doesn't sell by January 1st, we have to move the 31st of December basically because then it's the banks'. I just really want to have the assurance at least of knowing we will have enough to move into an apartment when we need to and as of right now,I am barely making enough to make the bills as it is. I don't know how, but I need to start making a lot more money and getting another day job is impossible. I am working myself into exhaustion.It's got to be through modeling and art. I wish I could get into making hair pieces and other accessories, but just can't afford the materials. Argh. So frustrating.
Thankfully, my dude has a job,but it's seasonal and they aren't giving him a lot of hours like we thought they would. More frustrating stuff.

Update on my cancer
I went in to see the radiologist yesterday and got my little tattoos and a scan. I start radiation on Monday. It will be five days a week for 5-6 weeks. Honestly, I am really scared. I am scared of the complications, how my skin will hold up, and what I will look like afterward.
A couple of the biggest complications that frighten me have to do with my heart and lung being right there, the possibility of getting skin cancer down the line, and delayed wound healing in the future when I get surgeries there again. That's just to name a few, but there is a long list of things that could go wrong with radiation, as with everything.
I got called i
Broke from my battle with cancer. Made a gofundme.
I created a GoFundMe. I honestly never wanted to do this. Asking for help is hard for me and it always makes me feel uncomfortable, but I really need help. I feel desperate, stressed out, and a little panicked about money a lot of the time. If this goes well, it will be one less thing for me to worry about right now. Thank you. PS. Please spread the word, if you don't mind.

I have cancer...again
So, just a quick update. I just found out I have cancer again. I am really traumatized right now. I was still recovering from the last time I had cancer (11 months ago) and still hadn't gotten to really do things again. This time, I don't have savings. This time I am going into this with an already badly damaged body and the cancer hurts so much more. I am terrified and sad, pissed off and jealous of people who get to be healthy. Honestly, if I disappear all of a sudden, it probably means I'm not alive anymore.
If you have to take a message from what I am going through, I have a few: always treat sick, elderly, and disabled people with the u
Updates: Patreon, cancer, etsy, etc.
Hey, guys. I know I haven't been actively posting things on here for a while (though I have been on here pretty much every day). It's been mostly because I have been really sick, getting chemo, four different surgeries in a little over a year, etc. I finished chemo in July, but the effects from it like to stick around forever, plus I have to be on really shitty anti-cancer medication that blocks my estrogen for five years and it's already doing a number on my bones, plus I just got my latest surgery a few months ago, but I digress. Ultimately, all of this shit I am going through has left me broke. I have been fortunate enough to have Medi-cal

lol It's funny to read about Lancaster as I used to live there myself. I wouldn't really recommend it to anyone. It has it's good, points, but also it's bad. Unfortunately the bad seem to out weigh the good. At least at present. Most folks I talked to who used to live there are glad they moved away & have no interest in ever moving back.
Plus the heat can be terrible. Was talking to a friend who still lives there & they had a whole week where it was like 155. Average temp is around 110.
I know what you mean about Bay Area being super expensive. Me & my wife were paying $1200 for a 1 bedroom 1 bath apt. That's why we decided to move up to Sacramento. Definitely cheaper here. Plus it's still within comunting distance (about 2 hours) of the Bay Area for when I want/need to shoot a model down there.
Really liking the dresses & photos from the latest set!
I do hope you find a place that you can both afford & be happy in.

P.S.: Feel free to use any of the images from our shoot in your calendar if you want. Can also sell them on your esty account if you wish. No need to worry about paying me any royalties or that. They are yours to do with as you wish.
