Hey guys!

Hope you've been well! I've been pretty busy with mom duties, writing, and starting up my art again. Glancing through my gallery makes me laugh, it's been so long since I've posting anything decent. But I'm hoping to fix that! So far I only have time for easy things like chibi art and busts/head shots. Trying to get used to my tablets again because it's been a while. Haha!

I'm also going by Xellis now because 'shidarezakura' is a bit hard to say AND because 'Shid' is one of my OC. I wanted to separate the names and start fresh. At some point I'll change my dA name to reflect the new change but I'm poor so... yeaaaaaah. Haha! :D You can call me Crystal or Xellis if you'd like.

That's it for now. You can also find me on FaceBook at www.facebook.com/artofxellis for more updates and random inspiration.

Trying out the DeviantArt app on my phone. I'm so behind! Woo!

How is everyone? Hopefully doing well! I've been busy writing for almost a year. Some of you may remember my old webcomic, Blue Rain. I've decided to write a total reboot of Shid's story.  It's hard for me to draw right now with my daughters so I'm trying to write. So far the first story is done but I'm waiting for feedback to edit some more. Ahhh... The perfectionist in me needs to shut up. xD Trying to think of cover designs right now.


The story is for mature readers due to the explicit content (yay naughty stuff). I wish I could draw it all out but I'd never be able to finish. xD I have set up a separate Tumblr account for the story for those interested.

bluerainstory.tumblr.com

It doesn't have much right now except for updates and a few naughty things. It's definitely more nsfw than my regular Tumblr so be careful! :)

I'll try to make some new art. Coming back and seeing the new followers and tons of faves made me smile. I give everyone hugs!

Hey everyone! Hope all is well! Sorry I'm still not around and updating my dA.

I made a tumblr account a while back but forgot about it. Now I've been on there a little more often and figured I'd share my URL with those who would like to follow me and see all the retarded crap I post. I'm trying to post art on there but lately it's been anime, World of Warcraft or other people's art. LOL

Here is the URL: xellis.tumblr.com

Now off to clean the house while the baby sleeps! Woohoo!

Hope everyone is doing well! Had my other daughter June 18th so she's a little over six weeks old now. The lack of sleep is killing me as stress and many other things. Have to go back to work later this month which I'm not too thrilled about. Apparently a lot has changed in the month I've been gone. I'm also freaked out that I'll be hitting the 12 year mark with Walgreens. I don't know if I should be proud or disappointed I haven't found my dream job. Haha! I'm not even sure what other jobs I could do. I'd love to go back to school but its pretty rough with two kids and no time in the schedule to even go. Definitely makes me feel trapped at the moment.

Been battling depression for a while. Maybe even a few years now that I think of it. I want to say its also one of the factors keeping me from working on art (besides the obvious lack of time I have). Hoping that going back on medication may help me out of this dark hole I've been in and feel normal again. I hate having tons of ideas and things I want to learn but I'm unable to get myself going.

Anyway, not much else going on. I jump on WoW and do pet battles when feeding the wee baby. Been naming my pets after Game of Thrones characters as well as 80s singers. I don't think a lot of the younger players will get a lot if the names but oh well. I find it hilarious to have a pet named Boy George or Bruce Leeroy. xD

Well, I'm off to try and sleep! Woosh!

So I've failed to mention that baby #2 is going to pop out in June. I've been super tired and trying to get things ready while also taking care of a four year old. Wooo this pregnancy has gone by pretty fast and I feel like I haven't been able to accomplish anything.

Been doing more research on figure and gesture drawing as well as digital painting and other techniques. I really wish I had more artist friends where I live to give me more inspiration (and motivation! Ha!). All I do now is follow artists that inspire me. Sometimes I feel bad I don't leave more comments on their work. I'm so afraid I'll look like a stalker watching everything they do. Haha!

Nothing else to say at the moment. Haven't had a whole lot of time to play WoW either so nothing to report on that end. Not that you'd care! Haha! :D

Hope everyone is well!
