Hi guys, it's me, back from the void! Oooooooooo! I've just gotten over the longest artistic dry spell of my life caused by the chaos of my cross-country move from Nova Scotia to British Columbia, and I'm finally painting (aka BREATHING) again. I hope everyone hasn't forgotten about me, I just didn't feel right coming back until I had a new painting. Now all I need is a new desk so I can stop painting with everything on the floor! I honestly can't tell you how good it feels to be painting again, it scares me that I could go for so long without it! I should be doing some new stuff really soon, I have sketches going for the Lady of the Lake, Ostara/Easter and the Goddess of Destruction, Kali (which is verrrry different for me! She's completely terrifying, I love her!) and I'm playing with some ideas for Odin and characters from Shakespeare. I just finished reading Neil Gaiman's "American Gods", one of the best books I've ever read, and was inspired to learn more about new Gods and pantheons and to broaden my horizons a bit. Now my head is absolutely spinning with the possibilities, Gods and spirits of Africa, India, Asia, the Norse and Native American Gods... Wow, I'm starting to think the things I don't know could fill a library.

Anyway, I just wanted to say "Hello again!" and that I've really missed this place! Also, I'm sorry I'll have to leave some of the comments that have been posted in my absence unanswered, but they are definitely not unappreciated! Thank you so much!
