tumblr. and leaving dA
2 min read
Hey lurkers!
Soooo.....I gave in and made a tumblr. I will be only posting my art and about my art there, so no need to worry about being spammed with random life shit. Haha So please, go follow my tumblr.
paintedmaru.tumblr.com/ paintedmaru.tumblr.com/ paintedmaru.tumblr.com/ paintedmaru.tumblr.com/ paintedmaru.tumblr.com/
And I want to say that I'm pretty much done being active on here. I just don't really enjoy the community anymore, so I'm peacing out. I'll leave my gallery for now, and I'll still float on to check out artists that I already follow, because that would be riiiiiidiculous to go hunt each one down and find where they post and have to be on all of those different sites. Shit. So, if you leave me a message or comment, I will see it at some point and respond. Sorry to leave those very few lurks left.
But really, if you want to keep up with me, please please please, connect with my brand spankin new tumblr. I know I always said/thought I'd never get one, but since the Stitch Fetish opening night event on Saturday, I changed my mind after talking with a fellow artist in the show. However, I'm going to have to keep the reins on myself and not fall into endless tumblr holes. Holy crap are they intense!
Otherwise, I'm going to leave off this last journal with wishes to all of you to continue making art, enjoying art, stalking art, whatever you do that makes you happy, I hope you have it and enjoy it to your heart's content. I'm in an amazing place in life with my new husband, my puffalump kitty Nagano, and our giant black lab lover man Dylan. I've just finished having an absolutely amazing year filled with so many great firsts, art gallery hangings, craft fairs, so many trips to beautiful places, a fantastic engagement and wedding, and so many friends and wonderful people.
Keep being beautiful people and never give up what makes you happy!!

Okay lurks! I actually just posted art! Fffffffsnort. I'm going to try my best to pop on here sometimes and post the crap I'm making, especially since I already take the time to post it on facebook, so I should just step up and post here too. It only takes like, 2 minutes. Plus, my art has shifted so much over this last year. I've never been this happy with my art.
I'm going to stop being such a slacker whore.
And anyone reading this, I'd love to get to know you more if you'd like to get to know me! Link me to your art if you'd like! Tell me anything you want. I miss having dA friendships.

Well hello hello lurks!
I've been dead for months on here. Basically in early June, my computer decided to go on a suicidal mission. And I still haven't fixed it. I opted to just ignore it and plan my wedding and I have to say, I don't miss being attached to my computer. I like to believe that I do more without it. At least my eyeballs aren't staring at it all the time.
So this is the first time I've signed in since June. I actually thought my inbox would be more overwhelming than the number it's at. And welcome new lurks!! I'm sad to say it looks like nothing has changed here, maybe just continued on its slow downhill depression. I probably won't be on here much to be honest. Sorry.
And please, let me know what you're doing!! Also, if you want to harass me and me actually see it, my facebook page is better, even though that thing is suffering to stay alive as well. www.facebook.com/painted.maru.… I also have plenty of jewelry and kodama lights on my etsy, begging for homes. www.etsy.com/shop/paintedmaru
So so sooooooo, here's a huge list of crap I've been doing/preparing for:

So so sooooooo, here's a huge list of crap I've been doing/preparing for:
*I got married to my loverman on September 7th. It was fucking GORGEOUS AND UUUUGH EVERYTHING I WANTED FFFFFFSNORT.
*Looooots of travelling. I've been to Seattle 3 times this year, going to Nashville next Wednesday, wine country and did my first wine tasting, Kauai for our honeymoon. Amazing!
*Fall Patchwork Craft Fair in Long Beach, CA November 17th!!! Come out if you're in the area!!
*We're hosting Thanksgiving this year. Eeek!
*I've been doing lots and lots of embroidery work.
*I was in a couple art shows this year. The next for sure one is Stitch Fetish 2 in February at The Hive gallery in LA.
*I hang out with my puffalump cat Nagano way too much. We're best friends because I have no friends where I live. It's sad yet I'm not really ashamed of the fact that we chill all day and I talk to him.
*I've already started on Christmas gifts. How gross. Haha. But I'm stitching a lot of things, so I have to get crackin.
*I spoiled myself with a copper electroforming kit. I just got it a few days ago, so I'm still tinkering and learning. As long as I don't spill the acid on myself, all will be dandy. But my first pieces, some snake vertebrae, came out gorgeous. I can't wait to put other things in there, like my alien queen chestburster that I sculpted forever ago.
*I'm going as a Japanese ghost for Halloween. The man is going as werewolf Pope.
Aaaaaand yeeeeaaaaap. I can't think of anything else. It's been an amazing year! I couldn't have asked for a better one.
Best wishes!!

Patchwork went swimmingly! The second show was much more successful that the first, and honestly, I was quite surprised. I had assumed there would be less attendance, less purchasing, less everything. And damn, I was wrong. It was buzzing and the crowd was so excited, fun, and nice. A very great craft fair crowd that was out and ready to throw money at all of the artists. I wish I had been to more fairs where the energy was so lively and great.
SO! I've decided to spoil myself. I'm going to treat myself to an electroforming kit. I'm riddled with wiggles of excitement and thrills over the joys that I want to create. And it will help further my jewelry making.
I'm also wanting to stitch some pieces off of H.R. Giger art. It will be so grossly beautiful!
AAAAAAAAAAAND......
I'm engaged! I've been holding off on announcing because I figured we'd be announcing on fb and shit, but it seems like that is never going to happen and I'm tired of waiting, so BAM. The lover man proposed to me on 4/20. Pot day and Hitler's birthday. It was also the opening of the "Hello World" art show that I was part of.....that I still need to post photos of my stitchings on here. *fails* But anyhow, he proposed and said yes and cried and here were are now trying to bust out a wedding full of DIY goodness by September 7th.
Three months! Eeeeek! I have so much to do!! But we have the venue secured, rings picked out, dress and suit bought, and ideas that just need to be made/bought. And a lot of weed whacking at the venue, Bucksnort Farm.
But I couldn't ask for a more splendid year. It just keeps treating me to more and more.
Oh, and I've been doing a blog about the wedding. There are only 3 entries so far, but it's mostly for shits and giggles and rambling about what I'm doing for wedding prep. lovemaru8.blogspot.com/
