Donate

*VioletRosePetals has started a donation pool!
176 / 1,234,567
All donations will go back to the DA community in some
way, be it point commissions, print purchases, or random donations. I will also donate the occasional premium membership, also at random. Currently though, most
of the donated points will be put towards making
#Essence-Of-Water a super group, and future contest prizes.





Thank you to everyone who's donated so far.

IF YOU ASK FOR POINTS YOU WON'T GET ANY!
That would make it not random.

You must be logged in to donate.

I love to make beautiful jewelry, and while I'm still at the amateur level, many of the things I make are for sale. My inspiration comes from nature and the colors of nature, so you will see a lot of blue and green in many of my designs. You will also see a lot of purple, as it is my favorite color. Like in nature, most of my color schemes are analogous, but I do enjoy making monochromatic things as well. I usually go into each project with a loose idea of what I want to create, but often I just let the beads tell me where they want to go. Most of what I make is one of a kind.

    • Artistic ideas floating around my head: More than I have time or money for.



EDIT:  I have temporarily moved and have internet access, but all my stuff is in storage, including my jewelry and jewelry making supplies, so my ArtFire shop is on hold until further notice.

I have a new Society6 account, and will be (eventually) posting all my prints there as well as here, because they have different products available than DA does (pillows, device skins, phone cases, T-shirts, etc.) and heck, it only costs a one time verification fee of $1 so...might as well right?  Anyway, here's the link if you want to take a look: VioletRosePetals on Society6

But that, as well as all the rest of my art, is pretty much on hold until at least next week (probably more), as our last day in our apartment is Friday, and we still haven't found another apartment (or started packing for that matter). There is, however, a 'loft' at my boyfriend's shop, and he's lived there before, so that's probably where we're going to go. There's a shower, internet, electricity, and enough space for our bed and a few other bits of furniture. There's no kitchen, but since my day job is in a sandwich shop, I'll just be bringing home dinner, and if we get sick of sandwiches there's a cute little cafe across the street, and we'll be just down the street from a few grocery stores.

Good Things To Know

About Me






:thumb95004259:

More Stamps




Basically I am a stamp collecting, jewelry making, self taught artist who gets very happy and excited over the little things in life. I am generally very caring and helpful. I am a strong Seventh-Day Adventist Christian. I have my own opinion on many things, and have usually thought about them for a long time before I've made up my mind. I am always up for a civil debate, and try to keep an open mind. I love to make new friends, and to be shown amazing works of art. I hate trolling, and will immediately block any trolls that come my way because they aren't worth my time. If you ever have a question and think I might know the answer, feel free to ask! I love helping others when I can.


I am me, and I will not apologize.





The only stupid question is the one you didn't ask.

Prepare for the worst, hope for the best.

It's not having what you want. It's wanting what you've got.

Everyone has 10,000 lousy drawings in them, and the sooner you get them out, the better.

Good artists are the crappy artists who never gave up.

What is art?

I believe that art is the passionate expression of emotion or thought through the creation of things, whether they be stories, dances, pictures, sculptures, clothing, music, food, even buildings or cars. The one thing that must be present is the artist's passion to create it.

You're quite welcome! You have such a lovely gallery and what's better (to me anyway), it seems that you live in my hometown! Sadly I'm no longer there and I do miss it, but I enjoy seeing the occasional artistic photograph of places I recognize. Keep up the great work and I look forward to leaving many a comment in the future. :)

Thanks for Llama! ^^
Sorry for responding so late to your gift! ^^;
I wasn't frequently active in the last years at dA.
So it took me a while to find out of the Llama stuff. ^^
