# About me

I am a 30 year old woman from Indiana who has two cats, works third shift, and spends as much time as possible with friends and family.

I work mainly in pencil, colored pencil and printer paper, although I would like to attempt digital at some point.

Art is a cathartic experience for me: a practice I quite enjoy. But as with most pleasurable things in life, there never seems to be enough time to practice my craft.

No trouble at all!  I love your style so much.  It is very whimsical and fun (and adorable), and while I'm sure you slave away and cry about it just like the rest of us, your work always has that air of ease and relaxation to it - like it came together without any struggle.

Oh honey, thank you!  And I so needed it today.  Fighting with a stolen/lost parcel in the mail - sad and frustrating.  But all that love makes me feel much better.

It all worked out.  I had ordered a Breyer horse online and it came up missing en route.  But my pony is home safe and sound now, so I can breathe easier.  I'm hoping to get internet this month, so hopefully I can get back into the swing of things here.  I miss all of you guys too, and my art and my harpg ponies.. I'm so itching to try out my new tablet.

Niur-Tarow In reply to SkyWolfSpirit [2017-04-23 07:12:02 +0000 UTC]

Uh, doing pretty well.  Carving out a new life for myself - and it is proving more of a slow and steady job instead of a quick fix.  But I hope that means it will be more worth it in the end.  How have you been?  It seems ages.  I try to stop by here every few days, but I haven't "art-ed" in so long.  I plan to fix that one of these days, but again, it seems the things I want won't be gained in a day.

I see, well I'm glad your doing well and have a steady job. I'm sure it'll be worth it in the end. ^.^
I've been pretty good ^.^ Recently started to get back into art, trying to age up some of my older characters. I can't believe I got some of them back in 2012 and they're still only 2-3 years old haha >.<
I'm glad to see that you still come on here. ^.^

I got an invite to co-founders to your mustang group? I am just curious about this, not sure if its a mistake or whats going on?

Niur-Tarow In reply to TimberLakeLaneEC [2015-08-06 04:45:27 +0000 UTC]

I'm having a bit of a problem that is showing itself in many areas.  I was invited to be a visiting journalist for the HARPG Times, but discovered that I was already admining too many groups.  I am looking into getting a premium membership, but they boosted the price from $25 to $50, and I'm not sure when I'll have that kind of spare cash.  Also, I am working much more now and quite frankly don't have time to devote to a group that isn't my personal stables.  I've been neglecting my own stables, and the mustang group has gone even worse.  I would love for it to have shows and contests and fun things for everyone, and more interaction with the members, but I just can't be there to pull it off the ground.  I'd love to leave it in good hands.  If you aren't interested, I understand.  But would you know of anyone who might?

ooooo... i see. I would love to help. Im a wee bit busy myself, but hosting events and such shouldnt be too hard around what ive got going. And it would be good for my mustangs as well. Ill take a look around the group and see what i can do. its an honor that i was someone worth asking.

Sorry honey.  I've been MIA for months now, due to not having internet.  I plan to fix this soon, and I'll get my stables back into working order.  When I do, you'll be the first to know.
