Another tiny dream come true! I received a package from the amazing, incredible and legendary Kath Soucie, voice of Fifi, Morgana, Lola Bunny and so many other classic cartoon characters! She sent me a beautiful personal letter, a signed postcard and autographed two pieces of my Fifi art!

I'm at a loss for words!  This is something I've dreamed of since I was knee high to a skunk! 

Now it's just a matter of framing the art and hanging it in my studio and office!

"I'll give it a try!" I believe those were the final words of the guy who tried to share his beer with a leopard.  

Wise words from a guy who did a thing.  And so, I too, decided to do a thing.  A Ko-Fi Thing.  I set it up, added some art and if you'd like to toss a tip my way for the stuff I do or just because you like my sparkling personality, now you can!I should point out that this isn't a place to request commissions.  I almost never take commissions because my schedule is stressful 24/7/365.  It makes me feel bad that I'm almost never able to say yes to the ideas and requests of friends and fans, and I am sorry!  Hopefully someday! 

For now, thanks for stopping by!  I appreciate your friendship, support and good vibes!

Here's my LOVELY new cel from OG Ducktales, specifically the classic episode Magica's Shadow War.
As you can see, this cel is METAL AF due to the bigass pentagram in Magica's house!  In the episode, the scenes with it are cropped and scenery covers much of the magic symbol.


As the Satanic Panic was in full swing during the 80s, it's kind of amazing Disney animators even thought they could get away with this! I love this cel so much. It's a beautiful piece, but the weird history behind it makes it that much more wonderful!

Next step is to get it framed and add it to my office wall!

For those wondering, no I haven't fallen off the face of our OBVIOUSLY FLAT EARTH THAT IS CARRIED ON THE BACK OF AN ELEPHANT OR WHATEVER, but I have been dealing with some health issues.  During the last weekend in June, the sciatic nerve in my leg decided to go on strike.  And by "strike" I mean it's decided to just be in constant, unending, wailing pain.  I spent a few days in the hospital getting poked and proded and X-Rayed and have been stuck on bed rest and sporadically useful painkillers since then.  

It's been...well, kind of sucky!  It hurts to sit, it hurts to lay down, it hurts to stand and it REALLY REALLY hurts to walk.  And unfortunately there's not really any treatment other than time and rest.  

I've taken the month off work and that also means art, so I haven't had much to post or share.  And even if I did, sitting at my desk falls squarely under the "hurts" category just like walking, standing, eating and existing.  I do THINK I'm getting better.  At least I seem to be in less pain than the first couple days in the hospital when I could only sleep when they knocked me out.  I'm also still attending Trotcon in Columbus, OH next weekend, although I will probably be spending a decent amount of time feeling handicapped in the hotel room while my handi-capable husband runs my table for me.  

So yeah!  I just wanted to update everyone on my miserable condition so nobody worries or feels abandoned because I went out for a pack of cigarettes and never came home!  I hope everyone else is happy and hale and I look forward to spending some time and sharing some beer with folks next weekend in Ohio!

Cheers!
