Self Portrait # 2

Back when I wanted to get back into DA I wanted to make a nice little self portrait of me to put on my page. You know, everyone draws their own so I wanted to do my own as well. I sketched this pretty out one night and have yet to finish it. I need to fix the breasts of course, and now I have dreads on one side and a shaved head on the other...but fuck it. I think it came out pretty fucking good.

I love mushrooms. I love suns. I love koi fish. You know this already. It's everywhere in my art. I'll get tired of it soon, I swear!

MacBeth's- Playing with shoes.

My husband got these MacBeth's from his brother-in-law a few months ago. They were plain white canvas with black. A few nights ago while I was finishing up my mother's present, he started painting on the area around the tongues in orange with yellow. He did one and then stopped.


I had always wanted to paint of shoes. But I had never owned white canvas shoes. And was always afraid they wouldn't turn out great. Well, my husband gave me the courage. So after asking his permission and after his 'Go to town.' I grabbed all the markers I could find in the house, starting with sharpie outlines, and went crazy. Later on he got the idea to add the studs over the lace holes. I love that man. :)


I wish I had a before and after pictures. Oh well.

Fused Glass

Took a class with the husband on how to make mosaics and stained glass. So we decided to go the rest of the way and do fused glass too. These are the pieces before the fuse. Pieces are still in the kiln, I'll show the results once they're ready. The mushroom piece is to put into a frame, whilst the koi is meant for an ashtray.
