My decent (SOME) drawings from my portfolio.


I DREW THIS...DIDN'T MEAN ANYTHING...WHEN I WAS PREGNANT.

THIS ONE WAS DONE FOR MY FRIEND KALEN...DIDN'T EVER FINISH IT...SHE LATER DIED IN A CAR WRECK.

THIS WAS ACTUALLY FROM A GOOD CHARLOTTE CD PAMPHLET...NO COPY WRITE INFRINGEMENT INTENDED.
THIS ONE WAS ME JUST BEING BORED...DONE IN MARKERS.

I HATE THE WAY THIS GUY'S LEGS LEAN...DONE IN PEN.

Another Day...Another Day Wondering How I'm Going To Get Around.

I NEED A CAR!! Its serious. I have even looked online to were I can drive a car for free with a company's logo on it. You have to pay a membership to even look at the cars...and even if you pay, there isn't a guarantee that you will even be able to find a car in your area. Shoot, I don't even know how I'm going to go back and forth to school...if Brenda lets me use her car, I will have to wake up at 6:30 (which I'm OK with), take Leighanne and Becka to two different schools, take Charlie to daycare, and get to my school. I'm OK with all of that...I just don't know how I'm going to accomplish that in time for my classes. I'm hoping that with the money that I get for school that I will be able to buy my smocks, books, and my tuition...and then have enough money to buy a clunker of a car. I don't really have high expectations...just something with some tunes, get me from point A to point B, and the big thing is that I NEED air conditioning and heat. I can't have my child uncomfortable in the summer and winter. I have been looking on craigslist...and there are some decent cars for sale for cheap...even $500 and lower. I sooo hope that I will be able to get one.

Trying to get my life straight.

I am desperately trying to get my life in order. I dropped out of school due to being mistreated and being messed with. Don't get me wrong, I'm a very strong person..but you can only take so much before you get physical. After I dropped out of school, I pretty much ran away from home and going completely wild. I got pregnant (very much by accident and with a person I don't even like...never did...which is so wrong) and hid it from my mom (shes not really my mom, I was adopted by her) for 8 months. I called her the day of my sister's birthday and the day that she found out that my cousin, Marcus, hung himself in my papa's yard. It was a hard day for her..and for me. I was so scared of telling her. I originally wanted to put my son up for adoption, but I couldn't do that. I decided that if I was going to do anything right with my life it would be having him and making a perfect life for him and myself. Soon after I had him I named him Charlie Leonard Lewis. Yes, Leonard is a very awkward name, but it is my papa's, daddy's and Marcus' middle names. About 4 months after I had my sweet boy I got my G.E.D. It wasn't too hard. And I just recently signed up to sell Avon and I've only been selling for about a week. I have sold about $80.00 worth of products. I am also enrolled to attend Tech this fall to study Surgical Technology. I really want to do something with my art but I don't think I can make any money doing that. (I think I'm the only one who likes my art) I'm not getting child support or anything and I have to rely on my adopted mother (Brenda) to help me. I hate that. I want a job so bad I can't stand it. Nobody will hire me around here. It's either I'm not redneck or preppy enough, or it's that I have a kid. Like I said I'm trying to get my life on track...not for me but for my sweet little boy, Charlie. He is my life...when I feel sad and see him smile, it just makes my heart burst with love and happiness. He is the rock of my life. He is the reason to make something out of myself. I am and I will provide for him.
