Hello Babes

Hey!! I drew a page in my sketchbook!! Feat. A tiny Victor and two smol mobs How are you?

[monileighsketches]

I’m not really on tumblr much anymore BUT Since I’m still Yuuri!!! On Ice Garbage here’s an aged up! Yurio.

Life updates: -Graduated Uni in August(yay) -Made two loan payments (yay?) -Moving to Shanghai in a month to become an English teacher -Filled up nine sketchbooks in the past two years and posted exactly zero of these sketches anywhere on the internet (because somehow I convinced myself that none of them were any good ahdjdjkdjdjfks)

Hi babes!

I’m back stateside for a few more days, and I’m becoming brave again with my art.

Here’s what’s been happening these past (couple;;;) years:

I changed my major I became single I became Old Enough To Drink I drank too much Gained weight Lost weight Moved three times Fell in love maybe too often Got brave enough to say that Art is my dream Started using my colored pencils again.

I'm still living in Tokyo, but I'm not sure how much longer that will be. I graduate in less than three months and after that I'll be free as the wind~. Wind that needs to apply for a visa to live anywhere, but anyway.

To everyone who stuck around this long, even though I haven't been posting anything, THANK YOU, I'm so happy and grateful that you did, and I'll be around more often from now on, I promise.

Hi friends I’m jumping in late with Day 04

[monileighsketches]

shitty cell phone snapshots because I haven’t had the time to make anything substantial (I’m sorry)

[monileighsketches]

So I guess it's time to let the cat out of the bag! I have transferred to Temple University's Japan Campus, where I will be pursuing a B.A in art. My flight leaves today at 9:00 a.m. I am nervous but also excited. I've wanted to go to Japan since I was about 12 years old. I'll be there for at least two years! I hope I have a good experience.

Oh no this story is going to destroy me I unknowingly fell in love with the characters and then I read the synopsis and i actually went 'oh no...oH NO' out loud. I'm slain. And the story hasn't even started yet. Anyway I followed you ;)

First thing is first:Thank you so much for taking an interest in my characters! (Also the follow to boot!) It means a lot and I’m sorry this is quite a late response. ;^;It’s okay we’ll all be slain together and have a support group of happy drawings for them haha I hope you look forward to the story’s progression. Again, thank you for sticking around! And btw, I followed back. Your art is super cute! (:

[monileighsketches]

also I agree happy drawings is the BEST IDEA

[monileighsketches]

For those of you who followed me expecting quality art

I’m sorry

Part of me wants to make those kind of social commentary comics and part of me is like ‘whoa a little too deep there pull it back a little mate maybe just draw fluffy things and flowers yeah??’

Sigh I’m so confused

1. Take a picture of your workspace ( ⁼̴̀꒳⁼̴́ )✧

It’s so messy haaa;;

EDIT: this is a close up of the WIP onscreen, for those who are curious (whether or not I’ll actually get around to finishing it is an entirely different story)

Barney is a role-model.

In other news, I got my wisdom teeth out on Monday. It’s been interesting.

Pretty sure that of all the things I watched before the tender age of ten, Anime was the tamest.
