Hello world, welcome to my blog. This is my art, works in progress, news, stories, adventures, misadventures, occasional rants and raves, and other random thoughts. I figure all this writing makes up for not talking much!

I am an artist, engravers, and a scrimshander (scrimshandress? That sounds naughty...). That image in the banner is a closeup of some of my work. In real life it's about an inch and a quarter wide. I really do work at a microscope.

If you took an artist, a writer, a cowgirl, a farmer, a hippie, a nerd, a dreamer, a pessimist, a hopeless romantic, and Betty Crocker, and mooshed all that up together with a heavy dose of sarcasm, you'd pretty much get me.

Stick around, you might like it here! Don't be shy about commenting, it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.
