Skulls, Skulls, and more Skulls.....


Here are some skull masks I made for a big skull swap a few months ago. I really enjoyed making them and perhaps will host a mask swap of my own. I like to make sure that all participants that take the time and effort will get a nice return in their swap goody bags! I tried to host a "Swap a Month" gig, but it was hard for everyone to get time, so perhaps a bi-monthly deal would be the better choice! We will see, but I really enjoyed seeing the masks in this swap and cannot wait for the book to come out to see even more!

Its' been a long time now, but...


It has been quite some time since my last post here, a few issues have come up with either my health, someone elses what they say, Life gets in the way!health, stress, work, and well...you know, life gets in the way! I hope it keeps getting in the way occasionally, because at least ya know your alive then! Anyway, I was out on my deck last night an saw this beautiful white lined sphynx moth drinking from my petunia plant. They resemble tiny hummingbirds. Ii ran into the house and snapped a couple of pictures with my little inexpensive digital camera and out of 4 shots, this was my miracle photo! I cannot believe the clarity I got considering the litlle moth was beating his wings so fast as it hovered at the opening of its' next drink! Also, it was dark outside and the camera took its' good old time waiting for the flash to go off and snap the picture. I hope you enjoy it!
