Interests

  • General



    I enjoy fantasy art but mainly just art in general... drawing, using my creativity & imagination. On paper I work primarily with colored pencils and markers but I'd love to learn to airbrush or even paint with watercolors, acrylics and oils...

    Some of my favorite artists are:
    Brian Froud, Boris Vallejo, Frank Frazetta, Kyoht, Goldenwolf, Alphonse Mucha, Naryu, Nambroth... and sooo many more.
    . . . : : * : : . . .

    I have tattoos and love tattoo art. I love watching how tattoo artists work... their creative process... I feel that I can always stand to learn something and that everyone has something to pass on. When you think you know everything there is to know about the art, it's time to quit. No one ever knows it all.


    . . . : : * : : . . .

    I'm constantly pestered by Faeries and I think mermaids are pretty cool too, since I'm a water sign... a Pisces to be specific. I've even known a few Elves in my time.
    . . . : : * : : . . .

    My friends are a very large part of my life. They're my family when I'm not at home. I'm surrounded by people but my true friends remain few. I like it that way. I'm very protective of that circle.
    . . . : : * : : . . .

    I am so much water... and it's not uncommon for me to talk in circles and riddles... I can be very vague most of the time. I love to play with time, when I can find spare time to play with! :D
    . . . : : * : : . . .

    I'd rather be in the middle of nowhere! Well, maybe not nowhere...
    Someday I'd love to visit Montana. Well, maybe I'd stay a little longer than just a visit. :D I really miss the mountains.
    . . . : : * : : . . .

    Join us!  :D

    . . . : : * : : . . .

    Right now I don't mind living by the Ocean... a lot of creatures that intrigue me make their home in or near the ocean... especially otters, sea lions, humpback whales, orcas, dolphins, flying fish and seahorses... It's tough to pick a favorite. :D
    . . . : : * : : . . .
    Yes, I do believe in faeries!

    I like cats, rats and Jacob's sheep... Scottish Highland cattle... hummingbirds...
    and horses!
    Did I mention that I love horses? :)
    . . . : : * : : . . .

    I love being one of a kind. :)
    And being me.
    And being 2.
    Because everyone needs a friend. ;)

    I'm interested in otherworldly events and astral projection... walking on other, more spiritual planes of existance.

    I like dancing, sleeping, being alone and the Moon.

    I can appreciate the synchronicity and irony of life.

    I admire perfection but I'm open minded enough to know that flaws add character. Nothing in nature is perfect.
    I have fun in un-reality.

    I often fool with simple web design, html and graphics which is how I wound up with a website. :D Lol...

    After putting it off for many years, I'm finally learning how to belly dance! :D
    Just for myself. ;)

    I love stars, circles and spirals.

    I am German, Scottish and Polish.
    I cook fish with a spoon, mix batter in a blender and usually hold my coffee cup by the side with the handle sticking out in the opposite direction. Yes, I turn the jar. ;)
    . . . : : * : : . . .
    I often post recent work in my blog so check there for what's been going on and what I've been up to along with various randomness.

    I'm a people watcher and terribly curious. I love to look at pictures and artwork... see people in their natural surroundings. If you're on my list then something about you has caught my interest. :)

    ..I usually avoid people who are:.. fakes, liars, posers, superficial/shallow, racist, homophobic, narrow-minded, unoriginal or those who just don't get it... and I hate politics.


    I love my Bonsai Kitten!

  • Music

    I listen to a fairly wide range of music. Really eclectic. It'd probably be easier to ask what I don't listen to... even then it all comes down to how it sounds. :)

    La la la...

    ..Some Words.....

    If you are searching for the perfect tattoo, something uniquely yours, chances are you won't find it on the wall in the tattoo shop. You won't find it already put together on someone else on a tattoo website. I mean, honestly... who wants a tattoo that's done exactly the same as one that someone else is already wearing? Where will you find it? The answer is simple... inside your head and heart.

    I've had so many people walk into the shop and start talking about all these wonderful ideas that they have... only to pull out a photo of a tattoo - on someone else - that they printed out online, or swiped from a magazine... and tell me they want it 'exactly like that'. *sigh*

    My only question is WHY? It's already on someone else which means it's not personal to you... If it's flash, it's one thing... I mean, you can walk into almost any shop and find the same flash over and over... That, in itself is ridiculous enough; again, who wants to wear art that a few thousand other people are wearing? That is what happens when you pick 'off the wall' in a tattoo shop. The point to body modification is to be an individual.

    In other words: Stealing a person's tattoo, duplicating it exactly as it is on another person is extremely insulting to the person who wears the original design. It shows a great lack of creativity and imagination. Think I'm kidding? I'm not alone in thinking this. A professional artist will use an idea for inspiration but will never duplicate another persons tattoo exactly.

    So, how do you get a custom tattoo? How do you get something that no one else has? You have to figure out why you want a tattoo. A piece that will be treasured forever is usually one that has some deep-seeded meaning behind it. Getting an idea of what you want is sometimes the hardest part. An idea, nothing more. What are you looking to achieve with your body art? What message are you trying to convey? Tattooing is self-expression at it's finest and most personal form.

    Once you have the idea it needs to take form. If you're an artist, you can draw it yourself. If you can't draw, you'll need someone who can do it for you. A friend, a relative or *gasp* your tattoo artist! Yes, that's right... they're sitting in shops all over the world waiting for someone just like you to come in the door with a good idea! Of course tattoo artists can draw! That's what we're in this business for. You won't believe how many people don't realize that most tattoo artists were artists long before they ever picked up a tattoo machine! 0.0

  • Movies

    As far as movies go, I love anything fantasy, medieval or renaissance based... with warriors, magic, beasts, maidens, horses, wizards, dragons and whatnot. I like action, I like drama and I like animation. Even some horror flicks and gore too. :) ..
    . . . : : * : : . . .

    ..Please note.....

    I will not give out sketches or line drawings for designs found on my site, nor do I design or sell custom tattoos over the internet. My schedule tends to be hectic at times so the only people I design custom work for are clients who will be coming to me to have the work done. I'd have no clue how to price an original piece that I'd never be able to do on someone because I will not duplicate custom work. Sorry.

  • Television

    "Television is the first truly democratic culture - the first culture available to everybody and entirely governed by what the people want. the most terrifying thing is what people do want."
    -Clive Alexander Barnes

    I don't really watch television... seriously. I never have the time.
    When I do, it's usually late at night and I'll tune in to things like Animal Planet, Discovery, Sci-fi and other things like that while I plug away on the computer. :)
    I do watch a lot of DVD's though... and listen to them if I'm working. ;)

    I'm a big fan of LOST and also of Farscape. :)

    . . . : : * : : . . .

    Be aware...

    I was born and raised a hunter.
    I enjoy the eating of meat and the wearing of fur- as long as it's done RESPECTFULLY!
    I do not believe in waste.
    Know that I will not change this mindset.
    I have nothing against those who eat only vegetation.
    I expect not to be preached at and I'll do the same for you. :)

    In Search of...

    ..

    December of 1990 to June of 1991 I spent in Topeka Kansas. I had a fantastic time there. During that time I made three of the most influential friends of my entire life. These are the gals that loosened me up... and motivated my interest in tattoos. They were the first people that ever mentioned the idea of tattooing to me. I've come a long way since then... in many aspects of my life. Over the years we've lost touch and I would very much like to get to see them again. If you know any of them, please, have them get in touch with me. Thanks. :)
