I do not know, truly, what I am. Or how I came to be this way. The name "forsaken" is attached to me, and as I sit here, in a shadowy corner of the Chapel at Lights Hope, I feel this name, and all it implies.
I know I was not always what I now am. When I sit too quietly I slip into the dreams of the dead. Hazy memories of life. Random things, when I close my eyes. The warmth of a fireplace, and the soff tinkle of dishes. A old, wooden table, rough and stained with years of meals, the laugh and bright smile of a little girl. I do not know who this child is. Was she my sister? my daughter? Or a memory of my old self?

i am attempting to hide from
you. i am hibernating in a bed
four times my size. i am imitating
a bear, clawing at you and growling
in my deepest growl.

Ok. It's true. I'm totally addicted.
I've gotten inspired to go back and find old work...some of it is pretty good! I don't have room for all of it in my www.reallybigpeach.com portfolio so, I'm going to add the over flow here.
Anyway, I'll be adding a few new, old pieces everyday (and hopefully some new NEW pieces as well.)
Just some linking!

I've added a couple t-shirts with some of these line art designs I've been uploading. (Like "Band-Aid" which is my fave).
Anyway, wow I have a lot to do. I want to add it as a print on here (need to read more about file sizes and such). I've got some photography to upload too (hugs!!! to ghala for bugging me to do it!!) and another sketch to scan and trace.
I've also got a couple ideas for really cool wallpapers to add (mmmall (https://www.deviantart.com/all) the great ones on here that are inspiring me) but, sigh, clients and paying work must come before play.
