Lady Day

ProfileMix.com - Free MySpace Glitter GraphicsI am a jeweler/artist and own my own business called "The Kat's Meow". I recently moved back to San Antonio from my home on the island of Oahu, where my business was founded and is formerly based.I have a passion for art in whatever form it may take, and my writing is no exception. I've been published several times nationally in poetic anthologies and am anticipating getting my own full length anthologies, short stories and novel published as soon as I can come up with the funding to do so.Allot of segments of my prose and poetry can be found (of course) at http://LolitaOnTheRox.DeviantArt.com . I'm always open to friendly advise and suggestions on how to improve my work, so feel free to drop me a line here at MySpace. I am also a photographer. I've been published and awarded for my work which can now be viewed in the Library of Congress (under my maiden name, Kathy E. V. Day).It's titled "For the Dead" and was taken when I was 15 in a cemetery in Corsicana, Texas. [The link to that photo is http://www.picture.com/display.asp?ID=535053]. I am awaiting my second publication in the Library of Congress which will debut next year in a coffee table anthology called Endless Journeys, under my married name, Kathleen E. V. Balderaz.It's titled "Daddy's Shoulder Makes the Best Seat" and was taken of a stranger and his son at a luau on O'ahu. [The link to that photo is http://www.picture.com/display.asp?ID=1709304].And I'm a little "attatched" to my photoshop...LOL! Seriously, I've been able to produce my own advertisements for anything from my film project to my business to my comics/graphic novels. It's amazing how much money I end up saving, not to mention how much more satisfied I am with the outcome since there's no one to argue with over artistic differences.Get Your Own! | View SlideshowRecently, I worked with V. Hill Photography [San Antonio, TX] on some really exciting shoots. The jobs entailed shooting subjects, behind the scenes coverage, journalistic documentation, wardrobe, makeup, hospitality, pc work and photoshopping, and a wide array of other duties. One of my first jobs and one that I enjoyed wholeheartedly was shooting my good friend and bandmate, San Antonio Chef Fernando Gamez during a couple of mentoring sessions in culinary study. I look forward to many more candid assignments like this particular one.I have participated in the same mentoring program created by V Hill for young girls aspiring to be models. They learned what to expect when on the scene at a shoot in which they would be the primary subjects (ie., promptness and scheduling, hair and makeup, wardrobe, instruction on facial expressions and posturing, developing contacts and recieving headshots).Check out all of my V Hill Staff behind the scenes footage for 2006...and 2007...I am also doing freelance sidework for Study Breaks Magazine, here in San Antonio. You'll be able to check out some of my modeling in the February and March 2007 issues or at http://www.myspace.com/studybreakssaI also sing. The band I most frequently jam with is CUERVO THURSDAY, so named for a tradition that was started years ago. However, I find myself sort of bouncing back and forth between musicians. The variety is wonderful and I'm lovin' every minute of it.
