May 1, 2005. So happy dance for 5 days till I return home. All I have left are 2 finals and packing my life into the van. I can't wait to go home and see family again.
So how about an update of the last semester. Yeah I know I've been just awful about updates, but I hope this new piece makes up for it. I have been so very busy with school work this semester. I can't believe how fast it went. I got a job for the summer at Dic Blick Art Supplies, which is awesome! Also I got a 30 gallon fish tank at home. My neighbors were getting rid of it with a big for sale sign on it. I got it fully equipped for 60 dollars! It would have cost me nearly 300 dollars to do it myself with new equipment. Everything runs fine and I currently have some Gouramies in there. I'll show pictures when I get home and find my digital camera. The guppies here are doing great, I hope to put them in the 30 gallon at home. The cat apparently has been very entertained by the tank, so maybe he will quiet down for mom.
So Renaissance Fair is on the horizon this summer. Myles, Gerti, Andy, Vanessa, Jesse (all unfamiliar names are friends from college), and I are planning to go to the Ren Fair on opening weekend. I will be wearing my dragon costume, expect pictures finally of this thing. Its been made for 2 years and I still haven't managed to obtain any pictures of it on me, and it is the coolest thing I ever made. Gerti and Andy bought some time appropriate costumes and Myles apparently still has his madrigal gear :) Such happiness we are all going in costume to have a great time!
My roomie Michelle apparently is a huge Life House fan like me and they are having a concert in Milwaukee, maybe I'll spend the night at grandma's with her if we go through with the plan. (cross your fingers folks)
Myles joined my larp back at home so we will be able to do that together. All this time I thought he hated the fact that I went there, so I stopped for a while. Now that all has been sorted out much happiness will commence. After a night of larping with my new character, everyone was confused about what she looked like. The book allows for a lot more variability for the lizard shifters, aka Mokole, than the other shifters. So to end the confusion I made a picture. So enjoy the very long winded update.

September 14, 2004. Well I am moved into college and things are going alright. It's been very busy between getting homework done and meeting deadlines. I do miss everyone very much and I do look forward to the holiday season when I get to see everyone again. However in all the business of college I still managed to find some time to do a bit of artwork. I hope you guys enjoy my view of Eastern's own castle, "Old Main", as much as I have.

August 15, 2004. I know it's been a long time coming but here is yet another update. More is yet to come. I'll be going through the site cleaning things up and making it look a bit cleaner. I hope you all will enjoy the neater look of the site as well as the new works.

Febuary 11, 2004 Friendship a children's book by Jessica Tschampa

Woot update sorry the book isn't fully scanned here's a little taste come back for more by the end of the month

September 28, 2003 With out an art class this year I have found I have less time for artwork than I am used to. However I still have found time for the things I love. Here is my latest work. The homecoming committee gave me the puppy dog eyes to bail them out of a jam. So the gave me a day to create their poster. I think it turned out quite nice how about you guys.

January 1, 2003. Welcome to the beginning of a new year. As well as the beginning of a new time if trials. My world my secrets are being unearthed by those with scorn in their hearts. My Elfwood site has been bombarded by those who I actually used to look up to. I fear that by facing those people daily that life won't be easy. My one hope is to not spiral into depression once more but to be able to continue to hold my head high like my draconic nature drives me to do every day. Well despite their hate I have some new works. I hope you enjoy my newest three. Oh yes updates to come. I will be adding a links section to all those who have made an impact on me artistically as well as those who have made an impact on me personally.

October 5th, 2002. Well hello boys and girls of the wonderful web. Yep that poll is still here. see there's the link ---> A poll. Any who, School has started and I have sooooOOooo been out of the whole I am the web master WORSHIP ME!!!! thing so here I am letting ya'll know where I've been off to. I've managed to get myself completely booked, scheduled, organized, and following it for a change of pace. Ya completely not like me. But hey I like it. I've been incredibly busy with art work again. AP Art Studio is a touch course but I'm keeping up and loving all the art I've been producing. I'll scan them when I get the chance.. probably tomorrow. Ya they are HUMUNGOUS! I have one of those art teachers that believe that it can't be called art unless it's at least 3 feet by 5 feet. Then after art comes my theater responsibilities, which are getting easier and easier to maintain. then there's LARP!. My god send! such wonderful and accepting people there and a chance to break from life's sucky realities. Call it a bad week I think... But LARP makes it all better. Some how for some reason, it just does. I think LARP gave me hope... no no no don't get me wrong I'm serious. Things that have plagued me before, don't seem to phase me much anymore. Like things I won't mentioned here. Well it's late so I'm going to catch some sleep and see ya'll in the morning with some art work :) 

Later days,  Jessica

August 26, 2002. OkOKOKO so I might not bet the best writer. but this is all it takes to get an essay to school.... stupid 2000 pro word... Argh must everything be so difficult???

August 22nd, 2002. hey here's something for you people to do. A poll I need help deciding on what to do with the dragon galleries. They are humungous. Vote in the poll help me out on making that decision. Well at last I got the role play characters done. all 4 just in time for school. Yes school, don't you people go to school? I don't know about school. Those of you who know me from last year know I'm not a happy camper about school. I had a few awful teachers, one especially that was verbally harassing me and made my life miserable. Thank God for art and people like you all who will compliment me on my work, it helped get me through my days. Well at last the guestbook works! I'm using Angelfire's guestbook since mine wouldn't add automatically no matter what I tried. Now there will be no more lost entries and it's much more user friendly. The guest book has stuff from like 3 years ago from my old Angelfire site so it's pretty cool. See ya'll later.

August 1st, 2002. Well I tell you there's a reason I haven't updated in just about a month and a half. I've finally done a once over on the entire site and made it relatively standard through out. I'm happy with this border I put on my website and finally thanks to by good buddy Brian we got all the tables cooperating instead of waging wars in my fair web home. Many updates as you can see to the left. But over all the site remained about the same. Now for the GuestBook I haven't gotten all the kinks worked out of it, however I do know that it is working again so feel free to leave comments again. Sqweeeeee school is going to begin. Ok I know you all think I've lost it right here, but it's ok. I get the grand opportunity to take AP Art Studio at my school as well as Web Design. I'm so happy easy A's to give my GPA a well needed boost. This summer I've been so busy with cycling, but I love it. I'm state champion in Illinois for the road race and I hope I'll do just as well for the state crit. Well I'm off, later days everyone ; )

June 20th, 2002. Ya  I'm a lousy updater.. I really should get cracking at this again.. so much to ad I figured I might as well get started again. This school year really was a hard one. I'm not just talking grades, it was a mental strain that turned out physical problems.  I guess it wasn't cool to just disappear from here like that but I do hope that people will start coming around here again like they used to. I miss the people and the comments. I hope that I can take in a few commissions this summer, cuz that would really get my mind back in order. So ya any of you wonderful people have an idea sitting in their heads let me know I can make them a reality on paper. later days I guess.. not much else to say, just hope to see you all around sometime again : )

March 20th, 2002. Um ok boy do I feel foolish I add new works and mess up the link to one and didn't bother linking you to the other... boy that must have been last when I was working on it. Wooooo spring break is coming!! A chance to kick back relax, and play smash brothers! A warning to all whom aren't already addicted, you may soon be kidnapped by your already addicted friends and be forced to play..... This whole new house thing hasn't really dawned on me yet. Odd I know I've lived here for a little over a month and a half and still some how believe I live elsewhere. A bit of good news, finished another picture and I'm finding my muse again. Go ubber detailedness!! *be quiet auto spell checker I know that's not in your dictionary*  I hope to get all the back buttons done over break. Woooooo 1 signature in the guest book. come on people I know you come here! don't pretend that you don't I see it on my counter that you exist! come on and just say hello.

March 16th, 2002.There major updates. As you can see the navigation is up and working after a temporary table war. Don't ask, when typing table html they tend to  get a mind of their own and try to take over the world, that's why borders are so very important. Any who the new works also has been updated with obviously my newest works. Also check it out I have a guestbook too! Go ahead have some fun and start signing. My counters are also up and running. I'll soon be developing a links page for all those who have helped with the production of this site as well as to the sites of my close friends. Thanks for stopping by.

March 6th, 2002. Yippy for the first update notice! I've finally gotten the links functioning and the pictures up. Of course there will always be more adjusting. Buttons for the links, a guest book, a counter. For now however, I'm satisfied with it. Ok here is the quick and dirty 411 of the site. To the right of the home page *here* are my newest works, look there for my updates. To the left  would be the navigation buttons, use those and other links provided to hop around the site. On the left the links titled new are obviously my recent art in that category, and ancient is my really old stuff. I did this because the change in style and improvement in art over all is rather striking. I hope to get a tutorial going for anyone out there interested. All in due time of course. Well back to work I hope I'll be seeing you all soon : )

August 17th, 2003. Wow am I great at updates? Hello all, I'm back again. This summer has gone by so fast, with my second job I have only a few days to myself, which I have had to split between my boyfriend, family, friends, and then myself.. So with what little time I've had I've taught myself how to paint and paint rather well I might add. Take some time looking through  the galleries and also sign the guest book, I'd love to hear what you guys think or even if you want to give some ideas about what you'd like to see.
