Ibanez - and a hot chick


As the title says - its a hot girl with an ibanez guitar...

... would look hotter if it were a Fender Jag-Stang!!







I can't stop these tears from falling


Another Artistic creation - although I'm not even close to happy with the outcome - again credits to blog.spoongraphics.co.uk  for the wet ink typography tutorial which helped me create this.

I'm Definately on a typographical journey today

Font used is - Kingthings Serifique - which you can download free @ dafont.com


& a slightly different version - not sure if you can tell the difference - I'll definitely re-visit this project again.

Version 2

I love Typography


And for the longest time have wanted to do a bunch of typographical art - but only now that I have re-formatted my laptop and re-installed photoshop - I can FINALLY do them.


However after reading through Chris's Tutorial I think the same thing could be achieved using Corel's Paint Shop Pro - however it would be a much more laborious project.

I code like a Girl


I code like a girl


But I am a GIRL


Yet still... I'm proud I code like a girl... this blog here being the exception to said rule.

Another quick note - this may be my final post - I'm about to reformat my laptop and fear I will get cut off from the world permanently by doing this - so if you are somehow reading this I ♥ you.

Out of the Blue


It was rather odd. Completely out of the blue, without provocation, and for no reason I can come up with, I got a text from the person I've just spent almost 6 weeks pining for. The person whom I finally felt I'd gotten over.

Yesterday I was reading a post on a blog called Between the sheets, the author ponders why is it that When past loves hear that we are single again they find themselves compelled to contact us

I know that he hasn't contacted me because he's heard I'm single, my relationship status has remained constantly empty!

Apparently he was feeling bad, or guilty about the way things ended. Why couldnt he find the courage to say those words six weeks ago when I really needed to hear it. Despite being slightly peeved that he has now drawn up feelings I had worked so hard to put to bed, it's somewhat comforting that he still had my number.

I don't hold onto some stupid hope that the message was anything other than him feeling sorry for himself and wanting forgiveness to escape a guilt that must have somehow grown within his soul. I knew the person I was getting involved with, and silent treatment following one night stands was almost his reason dietre.

I still have questions, although I doubt he wants to answer them, let alone the balls to do so. Just taking a breath before I delve into actually speaking to him, or trying to tend to any of the unwoven threads. I don't even know if I want to. Why now? Why when I finally felt like I had completely moved on does this person pop up again just out of the blue?

I know Ive wanted him to walk back out of the fog, but just don't know how to feel or what to think. I did respond, but have left it open... not my usual way, but I need to think before I respond - would like to be able to rescue a friendship out of the entire kybosh!

Butterflies


Have had nothing to do today - the house work all got done by the ex/partner in parenting/flatmate/who knows hot to define our relationship guy - All Ive done is sleep til late and cook dinner. In between I screwed around with re-coloring butterflies.

Decided to turn them into a slideshow. This being the result:






Enjoy!

Creations with Gimp



I finally decided I should check out the free image editing program Gimp. So I downloaded it, found some cool looking tutorials and got to grips with the program.

Boy does it do a LOT for a completely FREE program. Of course it doesn't equal photoshop, but it still has some impressive firepower for those interested in image manipulation & graphics creation, but don't want to pay $1,000+ for the latest photoshop.

If you want to have a go -> Download Gimp & have a go with Gimp Tutorials. - just head to google to find even more.

I've tried out Abstract Wave Effect & Creating Liquid Fire - see the examples below:
