I am here for Friends

About Me

Artist and magical being. I am also known as Nimue57 and OwlWoman. Reconsidering being on the board of the Mount Clemens Art Association. Painting for several competitions. Deciding whether or not to join the Hilliard Society, to reconnect with the Scarab Club, with the Portrait Society. Sometimes being a hermit is so lovely.WENT TO SCOTLAND!!! on August 5-13th, 2006! Had THE best time ever! .. ..Pet peeve: false Xtians (or anyone) who cause an awful lot of hurt in the world. Was almost a site artist for archaeological digs, was an illustrator for the Gov't (did a cartoon for the first graduating class w/females in it for West Point), have paintings owned from coast to coast--which I try to remind myself since I am usually too tired to do anything. Scotland imbued me with new enthusiasm for painting and life. Still slowly working on entries for upcoming shows in various mediums. I have cats with very entertaining personalities. I'd love to have a Boston Terrier again for a travelin' buddy. I hope to go wandering again to places such as Glacier Nat'l Park where the Blackfoot woman warrior, Running Eagle, went for her vision quests. I am Cailleach's Owl. NOTE: I will continue to add to my blog postings arbitrarily as I feel. No one should feel slighted as no slight to anyone was ever intended. CURRENT MOON moon phasesADDENDUM: Silly boys. Trucks are for girls! ATTENTION ALL: Soy is NOT a health food. Avoid it. It is simply a cash cow because it is so cheap to grow. It blocks nutrients to the thyroid and blocks calcium absorption. Use soy/soymilk only if you WANT a huge goiter, hypothyroidism and other thyroid problems AND osteoporosis. It should be outlawed. Buy food/drinks in GLASS as plastic waste gets into our oceans/waterways and blocks the guts of dolphins, whales, etc. Recycle glass.
Be like a cat and moon dance!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

The three Merlins upon whom the one in Arthurian legend is based. I wish I had time while in Scotland to explore the remaining Caledonian Wood where one ran mad... And any who have real magic in their soul.
