Stopping through to say hello while I can ~
I've been lurking. The Manatee's were a kicker..

And as always... Wonderful works coming from you.
I really like the latest.. The 'Sun and that 'Tribal' looking piece... Super fckn sick


That's too bad about the seed collection. Sometimes it's not about getting to grow them but I totally get where you're coming from as the spending adds up. Hopefully you at least saved a few! Anyways...


Hope you have a great week, Docta Trichomz

this morning sure was pretty ! Then thunder and lightning rolled in later .I did find a mine field of conches today. They were not 5 feet under but about 2 feet which made it easy to spot them simply walking in the shallow water .

I don’t follow any religion, cult or popular belief system that has a name or participate in any sort of grouping. I looked it up and it sounds alright.

I have been moving around shells making photo sketches with them and after many changes and shifts of patterns I came up with a final . I started out the day with the lines and ended up with the spirals but looking back on the lines , I really liked it as well. So might reverse and do the line one with a different background next . I have to take photographs Constantly while making adjustments because I work with the flat canvas and loose shells so can not tell what it looks like vertically . Now we just need to oil them up and glue em down. So the last picture is my final . You can see the progression .

Happy Friday!
My tattoo artist is having a Friday the 13 th special with $100 tatts. She made up a sheet with some flash to choose from. I was so happy she had a creature on there so I am booked to finally get him.
here is a new set of jewelry I am working on adding some tiny sharks teeth to the bracelet that will match the earrings and necklace.

@Dr.Amber Trichome don’t know if you have seen this work soon as I saw it thought of you sooooo creative …☮

Yes, I was looking the other day. Lol. Nothing I am very interested in. That’s granny art . Lol. And I can’t stand the dead. Ok, I like that song Sugar Magnolia but that’s it . Half my family are hard core dead fans and that’s all they ever listen to but it’s just not my cup of tea. Don’t get me wrong the artist has amazing skills but I wouldn’t be caught dead with any stained glass in my house . Especially not a lamp. I think it reminds me too much of church windows or something repulsive like that. I have to admit I did like making shrinky dinks as a kid but I was bored out of my mind back then.

High there. I Hope you're having a good week. I know it doesn't matter but I thought the shells were pretty neat.
With the backgrounds and the layouts and colors and stuff.. Ah well, now I can be excited for what's next..

The wire wrapping is looking really good. Keep that up, yo! Do you have purple skulls?

I like the blue skelly smiley face picture. I'm not sure if you did that on purpose or not but it's trippy :blsmoke:

What blue smiley face picture, lol. Your trippin. Thank you so much for the nice words about those shell collages. It’s too expensive to purchase the canvas frames to hang them on to just make them for no where to go. My wall are completely filled with shell art and it’s enough already. I don’t know what’s next. It might be one of those artist blocks and I am thinking about picking up a pencil but just not there yet.
I got a chuckle out of this explaination online .
I don’t have a business but I find the last bullet funny. I remember reading Freda Kalo felt that way about her work and Georgia okeefe. All I need is someone interested to take one off my hands for just a couple humdred bucks. Lol
It's okay to call it quits – to give up your art business – IF:
  • You find yourself making excuses around not making art or marketing it.
  • You keep breaking promises around your business.
  • You repeatedly get physically ill whenever someone criticizes your work.
  • You can't bear the thought of selling your “babies.”



I am so excited about getting my tattoo this weekend. It’s going to be my Green and yellow tattoo . I want it super bright. If she has flourscent green ink, I am all in . Kinda like the color of the green and yellow highlighters I colored this one in. And NO red for the lips . I don’t want him looking like he has lipstick on. I might do the tongue red . But the colored red and green together make me sick. They remind me of Christmas colors and I really can’t stand Christmas . image.jpg
I have a locket I wear around my neck that has a portrait picture of the creature. TheGill man some call him. And sometimes when I listen to this song I think of him.
