Haitus

On break from blogging until wedding is over and then some; likely until end of the summer.

Meanwhile, these are still updated.

More arts.

Recent artsiness.

Daonic theme.
12x10 inches, gouache, ink and pencil on Bristol board.



Part of an art trade, that I need to finish. Desperately.

Midsummer craziness.

First of all: I finally have an Etsy shop. (Took long enough!)

First-and-a-halfly, any and all art things can be found in my deviant art account,

Secondly, for exciting non-artsy things.
This spring, we've started some coleus.. and one of them now has a triple symmetry that is rather neat.



Also, over a year ago, I've crossbred two African violets, and finally have flower(s, soon) on one of the babies! It's pink, which is neat, as this place seriously lacks any solid non-purple AV's.

One of the parents.




The child!

Pictures taken in Indiana.



Once upon a time, a turkey landed in our back yard.. right over by the chicken coop. Maybe it was trying to tell us something.


A possible dwarf american toad!


Strawberries, picked in the first few days of being at the farm.


A very cute (and harmless) baby northern ring necked snake.


A really nice dog, that is cat-friendly, and needs adoption badly.


Things I've gotten back to in Virginia.


The planters look good. Actually, 'good' is an understatement.



The planters also seem to attract wildlife.. amongst that, there was this rather cute moth.



And now, off to painting-land, babeh~!
