hallows eve

I love Halloween. LOVE.
I've been watching horror movies nonstop, drinking cider, decorating, and of course - carving pumpkins. Check out my Chewbacca jack-o-lantern!

Haus of Gloi is God


I'm in love with these handmade soaps an lotions made by etsy seller Haus of Gloi.
Handmade always wins. I bought this Imp - Passion Fruit - Apricot - Soap. Awesome shit.

Things I love - Egyptian Art

I have always loved Egyptian art and lore. Ancient Egyptian relief sculpture is a particular favorite of mine. There's just something about the way these images pop out at you from the narrow, flat plane of the rock.

WoW art

So I play World of Warcraft, and I know some might find this lame. It's a fun pass-time and most of my friends play as well. As you may know I am also and artist and so when you combine the two you get some pretty awesome things. Here are a few of my favorite WoW related art works, not done by me.






These ones, however, were done by me:

my dad's kitchen

In part with my trying to rebuild a relationship with my father, I have decided to start picking on his interior decorating choices. Not often does a 49 year old newly divorced man make good interior design choices. Not only does he know nothing about decorating, but he was diagnosed as colorblind many years ago...

So I've decided his kitchen needs some help. His main "theme" in the kitchen is CHICKENS, he has dozens of them. Pictures, statues, blown glass, you name it. Lined on shelves, hung on walls, and propped up on top of cabinets, chickens everywhere.

Now, as far as color choices this is by far one of the best rooms in his house. In the den and bed rooms he has chosen dark brown carpet, white paneling, and piss yellow and burgundy walls.

The chickens have to go. He doesn't agree with my personal tastes but I'm partial to a grandiose kitchen:
Like this one

But getting rid of at least some of the chickens will do for now... he bought two new cast iron ones at a yard sale today.

intro

So since this is my first post I thought I'd introduce myself.

I'm a college student living in Baltimore and I graduate in about a month after 5 long years. I'm an artist specializing in digital illustration and I've loved art my whole life. After I graduate I'm pursuing a long time interest in tattoo art and looking for a tattoo apprenticeship as well as looking for a job in graphic design or web design. I would love to paint for a living but I might look to do it on the side and sell art to make a little extra money.

I'm a vegetarian, have been for 12 years (god I feel old now). I'm also a pagan, which I will probably talk more about later.

I love books, horror movies, video games (not shooters though), and my two little cats. I have a boyfriend with a tortured soul that I've been with for three years and have managed not to kill yet, he's my best friend most days.

That's all for now. More coming soon.
