Bloggin' I've jumped on the bandwagon and started a blog! Take part in the frivolity at Mel's Art Mausoleum. I'll post updates on events I'm attending and animation homeworks, plus reviews of movies, t.v. shows and other things I feel entitled to an opinion about. Also, I've updated my website MeleM.org, with a links section and a shop where you can buy prints and my hand-made crafts. Calgary Comic Expo Had fun in Calgary over the weekend, meeting people and taking names. Met the cast of The Guild and stalked Mike Mignola and William Shatner. If you find yourselves in Calgary, stop by Sakuya sushi restaurant, they have great deals on food

Sheridan I apologize for not updating, but I've started animation school and it keeps me pretty busy. I probably won't have time to pick up commissions until Christmas time. I wonder what my pictures will look like now that I'm getting art training? Maybe not as different as I'd like them to be. *cries* I have large 11 x 17" prints of  these deviations: :thumb81925708: :thumb22188139: :thumb129523232: :thumb168786882: :thumb171305874: :thumb172264993: :thumb173676710: You can purchase these poster-sized prints for $15 CDN.

Post Convention Time This weekend I shared a table with !BrownRabbits (https://www.deviantart.com/brownrabbits) and :iconradical-rain: selling my new prints, bookmarks, keychains, buttons, paper children,lanyards, and other mischellany. I lost money after buying protective sheets for the prints, table space, table cloths and 30 prints. After ten years doing the cons in my area I really wish I made more than $220 in two days. I scratch my head wondering what it is that I'm not doing right. I don't think my art is particularly unappealing but perhaps my relative non-popularity on DA would suggest that perhaps I'm a bit unrealistic as to my art skills. Quitting is no one's style i
