Time to Revive this Sleeping Blog

It's been  far too long since I posted anything on this  blog. It's original purpose was a  place to put a "portfolio" on the web. It did it's job. I since have a  DA portfolio page http://aprilhennis.daportfolio.com/ ( a bit out of date too) my personal page AprilHennis.com and a  facebook page for my illustration pusuits ( you can  also  like it  from the side bar )
As part of my new year  goals I have been  posting art every day  on my  Facebook page. but it occurs to me I  should  also update the  page  here too. I'd like to be  posting more of my art and  illustration here too. I have changed the title to  represent that too. Follow  me on Facebook for  the  daily  updates.  I'll try to  post  here too but it's just  so  convinent to  post on facebook. So  for  now  I'll leave with  one of my latest  illustrations
