I like the word AMAZEBALLS....a lot.

Watch out...I'm about ready to open up! (This is hard for me. My walls rival the ones in China.)

Okay, here goes.....I don't like showing my work to people. In the past I've rarely taken pictures of what I do or even talked much about some of my skills. I'm super possessive over my sketches...much like a diary. Recently one of my co-workers (The Pixie One) saw a sketch in my sketch book, I swear, it was like 5 alarms went off in my head! I didn't know what to do in that 1/2 second of panic. But...this amazing thing happened: She liked it! I'm not sure why I do this to myself. There is absolutely no reason to put myself through so much torture.

So I've made a promise to myself. I'm going to put myself out there. I'm going to stand up for my own work and accept all forms of compliments or criticism. So there.

It's actually not the criticism that bothers me. It's the compliments. I have a really hard time accepting compliments. My awesome work friend (The Snarky One) pointed this out to me recently and it helped spark my resolve to change.

A lot of you have been asking what I've been up to lately, especially since my Facebook posts have been rather vague. I have a GIANT opportunity I'm waiting to hear about. It's a gigantic MAYBE. I'll share whenever I can. But...if that amazing-awesome-superwoman-cool-thing doesn't happen I have something else in the works (which depends on if the super-awesome-amazeballs-oh-my-God-thing happens or not).

So.....tentatively....I invite you all to witness my first public work of art. I will be presenting at the Powerhouse Event Center on June 19th as a Boise RAW Artist. Once again, UNLESS super-awesome-tummybutterflies-major-thing happens.

This is going to be big. REALLY BIG!I'm going to present something at this RAW show that this city has never seen before! Wake up Boise...here I come! Well....unless the super-awesome-lightningstrike-thing happens.
