I'm the next Catwoman *MeOw*

Hi everyone!
   I have been having severe withdrawals from not being able to spend my days online getting work done and being productive *sigh* I have missed you all... 10 more days til I have my home workstation back... I feel like such a bum right now and my work is just piling up.  It is crazy how dependent on technology our society has become.. 

 However, my new kitten "Little Frank Sinatra" has been doing his best to help me pass the time! He keeps me pretty busy with his need for play and my desire to make him home cooked meals like grilled salmon with a side of kitten milk.. yes he is spoiled but he is adorable.. I can't help it!

You may also notice in the above photo I have some new ink.. this I am very excited about *hehe* Every couple of months I get an irresistible urge to hear the humming of the tattoo gun as it penetrates my virgin skin =)

   As many of you know for the past 5 years I have traveled across the country to Richmond, Virginia every couple of months to satisfy my need for ink which don't get me wrong is worth every bit of the opportunity to work with the wonderful Germ <3

However, this time I am happy to share with all of you that my latest piece in progress is being created by my dear friend and amazing artist Jason Beavers. Located right here in my hometown of Houston, Tx *WhEee* Add him on Facebook, he is a really great guy and his artwork speaks for itself, as you follow him you may learn he comes from a line of award winning artists! ;) 

Here are a couple phone pics from our first session together last night taken by his lovely assistant and young apprentice Amanda Castio...

 First the sketch and the outlining....

 Almost done.. now time for color!

"You look like candy.. and you always smell like Cotton Candy!" 
-Jason Beavers

...I'm delicious! =P

And here is the beginning of a beautiful friendship *LoL*

We still have a lot of work to do and pretty colors to add *hehe* but the piece looks amazing and I cannot wait to see it all finished <3 Jason has also presented me with an opportunity I find almost impossible to pass up working with his upcoming new shop here in Houston I don't want to say too much too soon sooo..More details VERY soon!!  ..all I know is I am a very busy girl these days =)

(Remember to *Click* the pictures and they GROW...It's exciting!!)

Absent w/o a Doctor's note... *Le Sigh*

   Hi everyone,
               I must apologize for my recent absence in the world.wide.web.
       I have a lot of really great wonderful news, stories and events I am just dying to share with all of you however my life  seems to be technologically on hold right now until I can find a compatible (& affordable)  power source for my laptop *sadface* In the meantime i am working from my amazing little Android who at the moment is a lifesaver and stealing webtime from friends when I can without feeling completely rude by making them think my weblife is more important than my real one.. although I suppose it really is higher on my list of priorities ;P

  I hope to have this issue resolved in the next couple of days in the meantime here is a picture of the very first jack-O-lantern I have ever had the pleasure of making!!

 *Jack-O-Kitteh*

*Hehe* Being raised by a super super (backassward) "Christian," doesn't leave a child with much opportunity to carve jack-o-lanterns and celebrate her favorite holiday..Halloween <3 I have to admit though, I am quite proud of my first attempt ;)


Also recently I filmed my very first commercial for a local Houston alcoholic beverage company "Black Iguana" We had a blast and the entire cast and crew were so much fun to work with! I really hope I get the opportunity to work with some of them again. Here is a preview of the commercial...

It was also featured just this week at Houston's first Splatterfest- a horror film festival put together by Kerry Beyer (of "Kerosene films" Director of "Spirit Camp")
 ...featuring some really great shorts by film makers from all over Houston. I was really proud to be apart of this festival and look forward to its future success while celebrating the great amount of success it's first year!

Also, here are some really great behind the scenes shots film during the making of...


Texas Terror shoot for Black Iguana from Peek Houston on Vimeo.

*Hehe* Proof that we all had an absolute blast filming together =D There is rumor going around ESPN has shown interest and may be featured during one of the infamous Monday night football games! *Excited* ..keeping my fingers crossed ;)

Let's see.. what else...
Oh yeah!! I recently shot some really pretty sexy dreads for a friend of mine who owns her own company "NotJustAnotherGirl Dreads" specializing in custom dread falls and recently experimenting with some really amazing dread "wigs" <3 Be sure and check out some of her work on Facebook and her upcoming website!

Here are some of the shots I was able to capture for her..






 Hope you likeeee!

...And last but definitely NOT least!!
*Exciting News*

As of yesterday I have been sought out by award winning historic author Hillary Marek to co-author her upcoming book, I don't want to say too much about it at this point except that the title is "Rockabilly, Americas Love for the Pin-Up Era" <3 I am sooooo excitedd!!  In this book I will be featured as one of the top pin up models of today's culture as well advising others on the fashion, style and other key points of the Rockabilly lifestyle of today and of the beloved yesteryear <3 I promise to share more details as the project unfolds!


That's all for now and I may have already said too much *hehe* ..Never.. I always have so many exciting stories to tell I just can't write them down fast enough be sure to follow me on Facebook though where I try to keep everyone posted on my daily updates, events, and photoshoots... it's like my Twitter but with more pictures and sillyness =)

***Pre-PS- My "Members Only" section IS still in the works *hehe* Don't lose hope... I haven't! ..It is just A LOT of work.. and I am only one girl with just like the rest of you only 24 hours in a day.. trust me I have sacrificed as much sleep as possible at the risk of surrendering every bit of my sanity..or what I have left of it =P ... and I am still working hard to bring you all my best in everything I do <3


Have a great night everyone, and thank you for the continued Love and Support without you, my friends, fans, and loved ones.... my job would not be worthwhile! <3
