This is my day to day Twitter feed, I have a separate one for Weight Loss Surgery stuff @Its_still_TRina
I am a woman in my 40's (born 12-7-68) from Boise Idaho. I am an artist, a writer, a crafter, a liberal, a giver, a decent person, I am an Eclectic, a mix of Goth, bohemian, geeky nerd artist.
I am married to and madly in love with a man 16 years my junior (shhhh dont tell him he thinks I am 25...JK) I try to live my life to the fullest, I love to spend time talking to a wide variety of people and hanging out with my friends doing all sorts of things, watching movies, having coffee or going out to clubs though I dont drink for health reasons.
I enjoy people who have a dark sense of humor and weird outlook on life yet manage to be positive overall, I despise having other people's unwanted drama dumped on my lap because for some reason people feel the need to drag me into their drama. I am always willing to listen to a friend who needs me but I find many other people are just looking for an audience.
I am a geek/nerd and I enjoy webcomics, role playing games (World of Darkness games, Vampire, Changeling and Werewolf) and I enjoy odd little gadgets.
Everything in my life is in flux, I am changing all the time right now, I had Duodenal Switch Weight Loss Surgery on April 24th 2010 to help with the arthritis that has caused me trouble for years now. I am trying to redefine myself and I am not sure who I will be in the coming years. I have lost over 240 pounds before and after surgery which is changing a lot about my body and how I deal with the world. I also have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and I am finally realizing that many of the things I have spent years hating myself for thinking they were due to being fat and lazy is related to much maligned and little understood illness that I have had for going on 30 years. I go in and out of remission with this illness and have good times and bad.
I swear I saw lightening like this the other night on my way home. It was spooky, yet awesome at the same time, just like your lovely drawing. Great use of colors to set the mood, too.
I just love the mood you have created here.
i tried to draw lightning for this week’s entry, and gave up – it’s reeeeally hard!! you have done a great job – well done!!
I tried many times to draw it…this is a photo of a painting I did using a thin thin brush and shimmer pigment in acrylic medium and it took a long time. For this I ran the photo through Photoshop and printed it out
