About Me


Well, I'm not really good at these things, but I’ll try to tell you something about me...
My name is Sharine and I'm a 29 year old Dutch girl. Born and raised in Arnhem, but living on my own in Nijmegen for a few years now. My two cavies, Spunkie and Pixie, are there to keep me company. They’re named after faeries from the book 'Good Faeries, Bad Faeries' by Brian Froud. I really like his work and fantasy in general.
I'm a pretty creative person. I paint, draw (mainly tribal tattoo designs), use chainmaille to make jewelry, take pictures and edit them (isn’t photoshop a great thing?!? ;) ). I even try to play the guitar (without much success, I must admit) and I love to sing. Visual art is definately more my thing though... :)
I love listening to music...Don't know what I'd do without it!
As for what I do for a living...Well, unfortunaly I’m not able to work at the moment, because of serious back problems. So, I have to deal with that first.
I have a bachelor's degree in creative art therapy, but what I would really like, is to be working as a graphic designer. That's why I'm taking a course (homestudy) in graphic design. Maybe this way, I can turn this time in my life to something positive for the future. Hopefully I’ll pass the exam sometime in 2008! :)
So, I guess that covers the basics...Anything else you'd like to know, just ask.

My Interests

Music (metal), photography, graphic design, witchcraft and creating my own art and jewelry
