***To all South Carolinian cat lovers, please help!***

That sweet cat up there is in desperate need of a home. He’s currently living in a dormitory where pets are not allowed, and really needs to find a permanent home before winter break begins. He’s neutered, roughly 5 years old and about 10 lbs, still in possession of his claws. He enjoys cuddles and attention, is extremely tolerant of being manhandled, and walks with a bit of a limp due to a still-healing leg injury. Given his calm demeanor, he should be fine in a home with other cats, dogs, or children. So if any of you are looking for or know someone who might be looking for a chill adult cat this Christmas, please contact me at my tumblr (slightly-oblivvyous) or email (livvygranger@gmail.com).

Backstory - why he needs your help

Tibbs, as my roommate and I have come to call him, came into our possession through a series of unfortunate events. Someone dumped him out of a car into a neighborhood near our school, where fortunately a caring person picked him up and took him in. He got shuffled from house to dorm to dorm to dorm after a series of allergies and roommate freakouts got him continuously kicked out. Eventually, he landed with us, and settled in quite nicely. When we got him, he weighed barely over 6 lbs and slept constantly due to malnourishment. After just over a week of near-constant care and feeding, he’s up to 10 lbs and significantly more active. Due to his leg injury, he’s unable to jump, but he’s excellent at climbing, and has on several occasions managed to climb up into my bed for late-night snuggles. Unfortunately, our dorm is a pet-free zone, so every day we keep him here is a day we risk him being found out and kicked out again. After being put through so many rounds of Pass the Kitty, he really deserves somewhere he can settle down for good. So please, if you’re looking for a cat and don’t mind one who’s fully-grown and slightly gimpy, please consider taking Tibbs. He’ll love you unconditionally for it.

Even if you can’t adopt him, a reblog to help get the word out would be beautiful and earn my endless thanks. Tibbs doesn’t deserve to get left out in the cold for Christmas Break.

One Trick Pony

I’ve studied the way the skyline meets the green floor of the world, where somewhere below someone is of course, doing what it is they have always loved to do. I’ve made this meeting place between the sky and the Earth a realm of study, where I (as hard as I fail) attempt to recreate its meaning. Meaning being what I can express through images, and what I can express through words. Two things—- only one of which I can imagine I actually do justice.

I cannot do both, I tell myself (words and images). Not because it is impossible, but because it is improbable, that I waste all of my time stressing over both. Especially since I feel passionately about neither. Not to say that I’ve always felt this way, but more to say that I feel this way more and more everyday about what I do. What started as a passion when I was young has slowly mutated into a feeling of both obligation and unworthiness. It is in a way just me feeling miserable about things that aren’t to make me miserable. But in another way it is just human realization. Realization, that, no matter how hard I might try there is a possibility of failure.

Failure is likely in any form of study. But more likely in my own. Illustration, in all of its forms, has become trite and also ironically difficult to define. Once, with a lower education, I thought drawing to be something that was different and not highly thought of. Now I realize it is probably one of the most roaring, most popular endeavors of the twentieth century. And yet somehow it all appears the same, and if it does not appear the same, then it isn’t noticeable. Unless of course, that the art is in fact so different that it makes us think too hard (Yoko Ono for example.)

I find myself realizing that I do not fit into either of these categories. I find myself unable to attach myself to any fandom, and therefore I am not very recognized. Sadly for me illustration has become a fandom all of its own. In this case, I find myself unflattered and not ready for a commitment. I don’t have time for a fandom, and I never have had the time for one. Which is why I find myself so sick to my stomach at my own life choice. I have single-handedly chosen a fandom as my line of work. It’s not the furry fandom, nor the fantasy fandom, nor the gaming fandom. But in all literalness, the illustration fandom. Naturally, I find myself slowly backing away and disconnecting myself.

You´re totally right!!! I´ve been learning anatomy and perspective and such, and I only felt anything I drew was horrible. I´m starting slowly again to try to draw how I want instead than how it´s done, but it´s hard for me ^^U

Does anything that takes time and effort is art?
