Busy weekend

Been kind of busy one way or another this weekend. I have been checking on DeviantArt which stock artists don’t mind their photos being used in commercial works for a project i am working on for Spicy. Ok, its not a huge project that will make millions (though we can always hope right?), but I am doing this all by the book. No copyright and royalty issues needed here thank you very much!!

Which kind of leads me to showing off my latest creation, which I am VERY proud of.

Its also been a busy weekend spiritually for me too. For quite a while now it had seemed like my spiritual side had ‘gone to sleep’, which was more than a little unsettling really. but this weekend seems to have seen a re-awakening of sorts. I have started once more down the path of seidr and shamanism, and have been clearing out my old runes and equipment I feel I feel I don’t need anymore, and have been adding to my staff again. I will post a picture of it later once I have dug out my camera. I need more bells for it though, if anyone knows where I can get small silver bells on a chain or string please let me know, mostof the ones I find are jewelry and quite expensive. I also have bells hanging around the living room right now, the sound and rhythm of bells is soothing and helps certain things along. I would like a drum of some kind, maybe one of those irish ones that look like tambourines without bells that I can’t remember the name of for the life of me. I gave Scott my old haemotite runes, they don’t feel right to me anymore, and am now using a set of yew wood runes someone made for me. Reaching in, I have been drawing Ehwaz: (horse) an awful lot, I am thinking it means I am on a journey, however I am a little rusty on runes. Ill fix that though.

I have also been playing the beta of the new MMO, Lord of the Rings Online, and have to say its very good. I can’t take hobbits seriously though

Cards and Flowers For Mothers Day? Meh!

So this mothers day I decided to do something different for my mum. After all, anyone can buy chocolates and flowers can’t they.

So, as mum likes vampires, werewolves and anything else that goes bump in the night, I made her this:

And the best thing? I got permission from the stock photographer to turn this into a print, so I can buy her a copy

Oh yeah, I’m proud of this one!

Well, this one took me ages, my right wrist ended up in agony thanks to using the mouse so much and I haven’t been to bed yet even though its 5 am, but it was so worth it.

Thank god for understanding husband, coffee and late night episodes of Metalocalypse to help ease any tension
