Hey Krysti, is your avatar from "Avatar"??? I can't remember if I said this before and probaby did but anyone that hasn't seen the movie needs to....and see it in 3D. To truly understand "me" I am one of the indiginous people the "Na'vi". I feel energy from people and plants and especially animals. I didn't want to leave. The 3D is some of the most beautiful stuff you will ever seel

The reason I like doing cloning is because of the tablet. Couldn't do it with a mouse worth a damn. It's just like drawing...do you draw better with a pen or trying to hold a mouse in your hand? I've got to find some of my restorations. I went to a website called wayback machine and found some remnants of one of my old websites. I swear I'll find the originals soon but the lighting was so pregressive for it's time. I recreated the books

This lady was nearly gone,

This one pretty simple

And then I found some more clay art! A cute little santa and my step mother had one and she called it a "blue nose". I think it has to do with fishing when it's really cold and I told her I could recreate perfectly her original and I did.

This is hard to see but it is a beautiful ceramic jug with some feathers and stuff tied to it.

This is a abstract cat pin.

So more fun stuff but I'm dying to show you some of the good restorations.

Girl-I was right behind you! LOL! See my reply. I thought about starting a new thread on the MB about who is driving the car.

I haven't yet read Taunia's post-but I will absolutely do so!

Mega hugs,

Yvonne-

Thank you, you make me blush!

I know EXACTLY what you mean.

I always used to hear, "You have such a pretty face [long pause, awkard silence...change the subject...] I knew what the 'but' was [but you'd be so much prettier if you lost some weight].

I haven't gotten my DL changed yet; and I find it hysterical when I use my debit/credit card and people ask to see my ID. I've even had a few actually argue with me that it isn't mine because of the picture!

My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! I so understand. I also wanted to lose weight for the photography but not only to be able to move to get the shots but to be taken more seriously because as an obese woman, they questioned my talent.

I am so happy to have a sister photographer!! I love so many kinds but I do truly love doing the graphic manipulation and making post-ops feel pretty. Maybe the second thing is doing funny stuff like putting famous people in the picture with you. Like this! Here's my friend Ramon with Marilyn Monroe.

SO PROUD of Suzy for being kind!!!!!!!!!!! You go girl. You were the only one to say something nice,

And I did it again....see my post. If anyone feels like backing me up, please feel free too! It is not necessary if you don't wish to. It was the first one that blew me away though. Not a nice person to say congrats to Taunia except Suzy.

I definitely WANT to own my fabulousness! I so hope I get more self-confident. I hate that I am timid and shy. Just once I want to experience what it is like to be an aggressor! I fantasize about me meeting up with a tall, handsome stranger and just taking the initiative! Going after something I want instead of settling... if that makes any sense?

I wish there was class for that! I'd sign up... TWICE! ~laughing~
