The Southern Belle From HELL

I AM FINALLY GOING TO FINISH SCHOOL..ahaha, and then start my masters..yes i know, haha, better late than never..painting, drawing, and photography, it is all intense but I love it..





and I so miss doing Penetraila and hanging out with the little smoking, drinking, baby...hahah..

Alas Vera and I have another shoot Wednesday, and yes, I am hopefully doing GodsGirls and Deviant Nation..if they will have me..GodsGirls loves my stuff and I have not heard back from Deviant Nation..Rob and I are going to Baton Rouge to do some stuff together in April..

Josette's is amazing..think a huge compound of NOTHING BUT COSTUMES AND MAKEUP..AND FABRIC..it is truly a gift for me to work there..

i am a cherry tart so go vote and just say something..

so how is everyone doing?

man, so much is going on and has gone on.
A wonderful light was put out on Jan 17th, a wonderful girl, known to me as THE WENDY..she was wonderful, and took care of a girl, when she needed more vodka..haha, let the gods keep you well girl..

I am working at the the biggest costume store on the Gulf Coast it seems. Josette's and damn are we busy for Mardi Gras. Between the plays, fitting guys and gals for balls, and krewes for costumes, this belle needs a drink after work..whew!!

I started shooting again, and keep posted for the new sets..I worked with ms Alas Vera, and that girl is awesome, let me tell you!! We are going to shoot again next month for sure!

My darling and another friend have been working on a new project called The Dreadfuls, its a horror, bluesy, country, spookabilly kinda band..shows all of my country roots haha..we will have a myspace up soon with more info.





I will keep you all updated on that as well!!

so we are ok..just made a mess of things..
and of course, 2 more on the way..or is it 3..hell who knows!!

hope all my NOLA peeps are well and good..I miss you guys!!

is another abstract painting I did..

I am in the mood where my work just sucks..it has been an up hill battle with my work here in the great state of MS..but, i just have to keep positive , and keep on trucking..but damn i just can not shake this mood..it has been in place for about a week.

I miss home but have been so blessed with other things as well..Rob and I are planning a 5 month trip to Europe with concentration on Deutschland. We are going to bike through it!!! Training starts after Dec..

ugh..sometimes i think, i am wasting my time with this art..But hell I have been doing it for over 10 years now..what am I going to do, be a doctor..hahaha..

ohhhh.. FUCK!!

oh well, back to brooding!!

is one example of my work..
the rest are not loading for some reason.

The gallery took one and wants more in that particular van gough style, so that is good!
No one is really hiring in my neck of the woods which sucks but I am determined to get this painting thing on the go
so..That is what I want to do.

Rob and I have been throwing the idea of biking through europe..talk about getting in shape, hahaha..
I love the idea and have been researching the idea now for about 2 days..all I can say is wow!

off to do more research!!

yes i know..HAHA..i disappear, reappear, haha..
but i have been doing alot of painting..I have 10 so far, and have even made a myspace page
http://myspace.com/levivid prices are even posted. I go to the galleries tomorrow so keep your fingers crossed.

I am taking a break from NOLA for a couple of reasons, you get to the point in your life where you look drama and bullshit in the eye, and you just give it the fucking finger. haha..

My divorce was final the 13 of May, and that is that. no mas!! only good and happy things from now on..

So I am ready to shoot again and get back to living..that nightmare is OVER.

so how is everybody?

what did i miss? haha, probably quite a bit!

Pravda is doing well..we are doing a nun and vickers party lundi gras!! It is carnival season so come on..Absinthe is a flowing and so are the crazy parades and costumes.
