tattooing on darker, or uneven, skin tones
- In Tattoo Advice, you,
Added a better illustration of the tinted window effect, and added a video interview I found that I liked. She reminds me of me, back when I started, except she’s better-looking.
6 pictures, ear weights, art, and chestnuts.
- In you,
heart wood, jasper, petrified wood, and glass beads on a 4ga sawa coil.
snowflake obsidian, moonstone, glass on sawa coils with beadweaving and threadwrapping
real american chestnuts!
the wonderful frame someone put around one of my originals that they purchased. I love seeing what people do with the work they get from me!
another picture from a buyer- the awesomeness that you get when you order prints from my RB page.
in progress. ceramic, wood, glass, feather. 2 gauge ear weights.
Alone against Antarctica
- In you,
I am reading this man’s diary right now, in my endless fascination for people going to awfully cold and lonely places.
six free pages to color!
- In art, coloring book, DIY, drawing, halloween, holidays, horror art, love, macabre, morbid art, prints, you,
In the spirit of giving, here are some print-size images for you guys to download and color! These are imperfect scans of six pages from the Horrors; I figured a lot of folks have bought the book and many more would probably love to just color in a few pages. Click any image to find a full-sized version for printing.
(although you’re missing out on 22 other creatures, and the text that goes with them all!You can get the full book here if you’d like the complete experience.) Enjoy, and feel free to share!
Things I made during the holiday season.
- In you,
real gold coral and real garnet with real amber on sawa wood coils.
I’ve been making things off and on over the hoiday time. I also got some better photos (with size comparison) for the pieces I’ve already made. I have a ton of new materials to work with too, which means the next wave of weights will be pretty awesome.
Excited! Click through for more photos of the new things.
just a pile of holidays.
- In you,
In our house, we celebrate solstice, hannukah, festivus, and xmas.
Here are some images from those days- I’ll be back posting more art and advice posts after the weekend! Hope you all are safe and warm, and well fed.
weird ways people have found this site, and their quick questions.
2008, work gear.
It’s time for the yearly list of weird searches that have brought people here, and questions that I can answer in a few words.
I can see search terms that people have used to find my site so every year I trawl through them and find the ones that make me giggle- or the ones that are simple questions I can answer. This year was a good year for this.
