Always Yellow



So many yellow self portraits!

Tales of Hoffman




Tales of Hoffman is an opera! Basically, this guy Hoffman was a writer and then he died and this other guy Offenbach comes along and tells the stories in an opera using Hoffman as the central figure. There are three different loves, all of which are very tragic and prove that he needs to devote himself to his writing.

So he is tangeled in hair, and seeing ladies when he tries to drown his troubles in alcohol.

BAD GUY



LORD LICORICE!

I find this amusing


I went to google search "The difference between a and b cultivating avocados" and got only so far as "the difference between" and google suggested to me these options.

Just a little something


Random painting just for fun times.

As an aside, photoshop no longer scares the crap out of me... so, that's nice. :)

Little Housessss



I'm not sure how or why, but I'm pretty sure little houses are some kind of love of mine. I find myself longing to belong in one of them. So cozy, efficient and compact. Someday I think I'll build one.

Totally the Queen of the Underworld!!<3



She's PERSEPHONE! and OMG she loves the underworld!
More to Come, she's gonna be just line drawing with some pink spots, like her hair, dress and accessories. Super excited!
