Hi!!!!....I am just one of the many "Creatives" in this world. I live, eat, and sleep with my sewing machines and my sketch book. I'm just a kick back gal. Love great ppl. Love my family. I have an awesome collection of Nephews that my brothers and sis have blessed me with. My mother is an awesome designer & seamstress. My dad is a great sketcher & creative thinker. They are my inspi. I love my sewing machines, I would be nothing without them. :)
Interests: I keep a sketchbook on me 24/7 and I have to have music to function. I get a lot of my muse from video game characters, comic book artists, Art, music moods. I absolutely love culture and people...The way we move, the conversations we have, our expressions, our languages, our mixtures. I admire all the different ways people express their creativity. I can't make music, nor can I build beautiful architecture...but I absolutely need music and architecture is my muse. So I am so glad there are others out there who know how to create what I can't because it's amazing to sit back and enjoy the craft of fellow Creatives. I am definitely good for going into hermit mode. LOL I like being in my house, in my pajamas, in my slippers, with throws and repeated cups of tea indulging heavily in Korean dramas. Sometimes I'll do a little vent session in ink to detox my brain. I love to chop it up with God. I am addicted to green tea and coffee is a close second. :) and sad but true..I have my entire life organized on a TO DO list. :) I am blessed with a beautiful support system of friends and fam in my life that surround me with Love Love and of course the occasional bickering :) but I give all my Love Love back to them and to the world as much as I can. I truly believe that Creativity is a way of life and no matter what we "Creatives" do from 9-5...Creating is our lifetime job. :)

I create till my eyes grow weary, till my hands cramp up, till my ink runs out, till my thoughts can't flow. So tangible, yet so distant....I want it bad...In my mind, I've created my shine, I've watched me succeed, and I felt the moment. This is my time to... Continue reading
