about me

Practically imperfect in every way. Start with a lot of silliness. Mix in some insecurities and a handful of awkwardness. Add a pound of naivety, innocence, and child-like wonderings. Blend well. Half-bake and top off with a sprinkle of imagination and dollop of dreams. It’s the recipe for me!

dumbass quote

  • "I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don't have maps. And I believe that our education like, such as South Africa, and, the Iraq, everywhere like such as. And I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., or should help South Africa, and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future for our children." --Caitlin Upton, Miss South Carolina Teen 2007

The Blank Canvas

July 29, 2004

I have a stat counter connected to my website that lets me track how many people are looking at my pages. When I first created my site, I knew it was incomplete. The gallery page is probably the funniest one I have. I’m an artist with a blank gallery page. It’s pretty laughable. But I knew the site wouldn’t be getting any traffic for a very long time, so it wasn’t a priority for me to have the site finished before I launched it. My stat counter tells me, however, that people are looking at my pages. Eep! Okay, so maybe it was to be expected. i’ve found a nice little group of blogs that I regularly visit and a lot of them have listed my blog on their site (for which I am very grateful!) But, these blogs have lots of visitors! And those visitors are clicking their links to my blog. Which… is fine. Except my blog links to all my unfinished pages. Which… is not so fine. So here I am feeling like quite the nitwit with a hopelessly incomplete site. Oh, I suppose I could take some digital pictures of my work and post them up there so that the page isn’t empty, but I really hate the thought of my amateur looking photos being used to showcase my work. You see, I’m very proud of my pieces, and I’m afraid my photographs just don’t do them justice. So here I am, stuck.

Consider this my apology to anyone who might have tried to view my gallery only to find nothing again and again. Also, consider this my complete agreement with any of you who think it’s pretty stupid for me to have a gallery page with no pictures.

    It doesn’t seem like taking pictures of jewelry should be that hard. Put the piece on a white sheet, shine a couple of lights on it (flashlights, lamps, whatever you have) to eliminate the shadows, and take some close-up pictures. Perhaps the pictures wouldn’t be completely “professional” looking, but certainly nothing to be embarrassed about. I, for one, would like to see some of your stuff…..

    Consider this your warning. ;) Rectify the situation or be eliminated. :)

about this blog

It’s the spark of an idea that hits me unexpectedly. It’s the silly wonderings I have after a whirlwind of thoughts. It’s about creativity, inspiration, and imagination. But sometimes, it’s just about eating noodles.
