I am so screwed beyond belief. I'm posting this more as dated info. for myself than to be sharing it with others. I've been really sick lately with fever, weight loss, stomach problems, joint pain, skin rash, etc..etc... The dr. isn't positive yet while we still run tests but seems pretty sure that I have a new disease. I am already bipolar. The medicine they give you for this new illness makes bipolar people's symptoms spin out of control. It has taken years and years for me to find somewhat of a balance with the bipolar, and even that is always just temporary because after a while the medications will stop working and it's time to start all over again. With my mind under attack already, I really don't need this shit with my body too. Currently I'm in alot of pain and can't sleep because of it. I haven't been given any new medicine yet and now I'm not sure if I can even take it, because I'd much prefer to be able to think clearly over dealing with physical pain... but it is bad right now and some symptoms are really bad for me, so I don't know what I'm going to do.

You always have a way of putting all that emotion and pain into a picture....it sucks that you're sick.

Sweetcell (May 31, 2007)

Oh Lori I'm so sorry to hear that. I've been diagnosed with mild schizophrenia and it took years to find the right meds to help me. I know what it's like when you haven't that much control over your mind at times. Now this physical hell to deal with. We're all here for you, and hope something can be done, and in the meantime maybe you should look at alternatives, not to replace medicine but augment it. Meditation, diets, herbs. Whatever heppens you have the support here. (((Lori)))

Falling

Axil62 (Jun 3, 2007)

I just want to thank you
For all of the things you've done
I'm thinking about you
I just want to send my love
I send my best to you
That's my message of love
For all the things you did
I can never thank you enough

Feel like I'm falling
Falling off the face of the earth
Falling off the face of the earth
(Falling)
Feel like I'm falling
Falling off the face of the earth
Falling off the face of the earth

Oh...

I just want to tell you
You sure mean a lot to me
It may sound simple
But you are the world to me
It's such a precious thing
That time we shared together
I must apologize
For the troubled times

Feel like I'm falling
Falling off the face of the earth
(Falling)
Feel like I'm falling
Falling off the face of the earth
Falling off the face of the earth

Oh...

Feel like I'm falling
Falling off the face of the earth
Falling off the face of the earth
(Falling)
Falling off the face of the earth

(Falling)
Feel like I'm falling
Falling off the face of the earth
(Falling)
Feel like I'm falling
Falling off the face of the earth
(Falling)

This is so incredibly good...damn..

Axil62 (edited Jun 5, 2007)

I thought it would be nice to play a sample of this song so that you could get a better feel for this.

Sweetcell (Jun 5, 2007)

She's lovely, and I envy your talent to paint loose and free. The sun flares behind her are a nice touch, they almost seem to frame her.

Orkdoop (Jun 7, 2007)

im about to be emo right now..

"Turn away,
If you could get me a drink
Of water cause my lips are chapped and faded
Call my aunt Marie
Help her gather all my things
and bury me
in all my favorite colors,
my sisters and my brothers, still,
I will not kiss you,
cause the hardest part of this,
is leaving you.

Now turn away,
cause I'm awful just to see
cause all my hair's abandoned all my body,
Oh, my agony,
know that I will never marry,
Baby, I'm just soggy from the chemo
but counting down the days to go.

It just ain't living
And I just hope you know
That if you say (if you say)
Goodbye today (goodbye today)
I'd ask you to be true (cause I'd ask you to be true)
Cause the hardest part of this
Is leaving you...

Cause the hardest part of this
Is leaving you..."

Tutorial for Smoothe Effect

Miss_DJ (Jun 5, 2007)

FIRST STEP:
HAVE FUN! CHOOSE A BRUSH YOU LIKE AND PUT AS MANY COLORS ON THE CANVAS AS YOU'D LIKE. PLAY. PLAY. PLAY. I CAN'T EMPHASIZE THIS ENOUGH. THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUN, SO HAVE FUN WITH IT. THE DIRECTION OF YOUR STROKES DON'T HAVE TO BE ANY 'ONE' WAY. BE CREATIVE! DOING THIS TO MUSIC YOU LIKE IS ESPECIALLY RECOMMENDED.

Oh CRAP! You did a tutorial like I asked? Donna, this is amazing and if I could I'd reach through the screen and hug you. I knew you used all the special tools I just didn't know how you did it. Honey, thanks for this, you know I gotta try now. Do wish we could have a fave folder, this would go right in. (((((Donna)))))

Btw, awesome picture, and I love the little added bubble on the left.

davincipoppalag (Jun 5, 2007)

Fun fun fun! You just defined...FUN hehe..You're fun! ;0)

diver2026 (Jun 6, 2007)

wow I'll have to play with all the tools more, this is so pretty

Miss_DJ (edited Jun 6, 2007)

I'm happy you like this! I hope the tutorial makes sense, if anyone has any questions, feel free to memo me.

Here's my favorite example using this method for part of a picture: http://zoraw.cellosoft.com/data/8/86673/86673-v2.jpg

The colors are so smooth! And I really like your shading/lighting. The face really looks like its popping out

davincipoppalag (Jun 6, 2007)

This one looks like its carved and smoothed from stone...

Sweetcell (Jun 6, 2007)

Yes, it does look like stone. I love that crack in the face. Glad your back Snoopmooneymoon. :)

Everyone needs a rap name.

Miss_DJ (Jun 6, 2007)
