Carl Sagan, Exquisite World (Wallpaper)
Using the same quote from a previous Carl Sagan image, I made this wallpaper. Also 2880 x 1800 pixels. The world is so exquisite, with so much love and moral depth, that there is no reason to deceive ourselves with pretty stories for which there’s little good evidence. Far better, it seems to me, in our vulnerability, is to look Death in the eye and to be grateful every day for the brief but magnificent opportunity that life provides. Carl...

I began making wallpapers the other day. Now that my art is getting more attention, I should post some. This image is 2880 x 1800 pixels.

What’s in a name? What’s in your name? Firstly, its what identifies you as you. What ever that is. I, like many teenagers, had issues. I suffer from anxiety and depression on a mild scale. During my teenage years, it hit me like a ton of bricks. I was a deeply dark and depressing wreck. My family was (and still is) largely opposed to any sort of psychological help. It may have caused more issues, but that’s another story. I wasn’t quite suicidal but glamorized...
Read MoreOh my Saturn!
I mentioned my father passed away and that my hubby and I moved to Miami from LA to aid my mother for a bit. We stopped in Vegas for two days to break up the trip. We flew and shipped the car. As you can see below, my Saturn is no more: The truck’s hydraulic breaks caught on fire and my car and six others all burned.
