As some of you might know, I cannot do any new oaken projects on my laptop. I bought a new battery for my laptop and it should come in before March 10th. Until then, I am unable to make any new drawings. I can make drawings that I have already posted, but my laptop doesn't allow me to go into "create a new drawing". Im stuck for now. An even if my laptop were working, I would still be stuck cause my tablet doesnt work on it xD Sorry guys :/

So, as most of you know, I have a little Tennessee Walking Horse stud colt, Jericho. And most of you know that I am of little means, and he has been residing on the property of my Ex-fiance. -sighs- Yesterday was the first day I got to see my fur baby in two weeks- I have been snowed in at my house, and Snowed out of their mountain property. everything was going good.Great. I was loving on him, grooming him, feeding him, etc. Just spending time with my most handsome man. then my Ex's Mother comes out of her house, Down into the Field, and delivers news I have been begrudgingly awaiting. I had discovered all of my things for Jericho's use or my use For Jericho, were moved to another place in their Garage. She tells me that I have to move him, and have X amount of time to do it. Not only have I Little to no means of providing for Jericho on my own, There are so many other factors of Wrong in this equation. Jericho has been in my care since foal hood. Since he was born I have been there. SO Selling him is Never going to be an option. His pasture buddy, Taz a six year old gelding, Has been in Jericho's life from day one also. The two have NEVER been separated. and I literally mean NEVER. Also, Neither horse receives proper care or adequate attention when I am not able to be there- which as of late has been often seeing as how I work full time for hardly anything just to please society and the blasted government. So , when the time comes to move Jericho- after I find a place(I have spent the past 36 hours or so crying and panicking and contacting Everyone and Anyone I can)- Taz will no longer receive any sort of love, attention or care. He's in desperate need of his hooves being done, and his teeth need to be floated something fierce. Despite my begging and Offering money- They refuse to give/sell Taz to me just for spite of my relationship with their son. Taz won't make it another year without Jericho- If a few months. And All of my close horse friends(Close as in proximity, not relationships) Are suddenly too busy and too low or Whatever to help out, after years of 'Oh, If you EVER need me, call me and I'll help you out !" His mother also had the nerve to tell me that the only reason I was keeping my horse there was to stay close to her son, and i needed to "move on its over" , and that I may as well sell him or give him away because he is 3 years old with no proper and official training- because he isn't broke yet. Mind you they aren't supposed to be 'broke' and ride-able until a bit after their third year. Specially cause he had an issue holding weight from year one to year two.
In anycase, I'm sorry I rambled on here. I just.. Please be patient with me. I am under a metric crap ton of stress and I am trying to stay positive about it- but finding a place to Board a stud is next to impossible, let alone finding a trainer. I will be extremely slow in getting things done on here. I'm not abandoning yall , Just be patient. Please don't bump my threads or harass me over PMs, because I really can't handle the additional stress right now. Thanks yall.

Hey guys, here's the deal, I'm in Florida with a sudden family vacation to visit my slightly ailing grandparents. I will still be on and making customs in my free time but it may be a few days before I can finish everyone's! Just warning everyone. <3

On another note, one of our boarder's horses just died- he was 34 and died peacefully, but we're still a bit sad to loose the old grump- you may see a bay Paso Fino/Tenneesee Walking Horse adopt soon in honor of Morgan. (Yes, a Paso Fino/TWH named Morgan.)
(To make it clear, he's not my horse, but he lived on our property for years and we took care of him when his owners weren't around).

Lastly, please, please guys….don't harass artists about judging or making something. We want CWHR to be a wonderful atmosphere to everyone- that's why we have artists who are kind and generous. <3 Hard patches roll in, and sometimes we struggle, like all of you.

In return, I'd say that if YOU are ever having a hard time, Seren is just a message away. I am always happy to listen and respond if you need comfort, advice, or even just someone to talk at for a bit. <333

Ciao, loves! I'll be finishing up the Matchmaker event then moving onto more things, customs and otherwise. ;3! *throws confetti as I try not to be boiled in this wet Florida heat*

Love y'all. <33333

(Sapphy, gonna message you later sweetie).

Hey guys, chipping through customs and breedings! I should have a good chunk of time this weekend to do it! :3

Guys, a note about crossbreeds- Please try to stick to at least semi-realistic percentages.

If a horse is 3/4 of a breed, it's 75%.
If a horse is half of a breed, it's 50%.
If a horse is a quarter of a breed, it's 25%.
If a horse is an eighth of a breed, it's 12.5%.
If a horse is a sixteenth of a breed, it's 6.25%.

Because a horse gets its breed from its parents, it can't get 10% of a breed from one parent and then 90% from the other, it's even. So rather than have a horse that's 60% xx breed, then 10% another, then 40%, try to go like, 75% main breed, 12.5% something else, then 12.5%. It's more even and makes a bit more sense. Just something to consider. :3 We won't like, kill you for it or anything, of course. XD
