Oh hey Nikki exists!

Thu Feb 12, 2009, 12:53 AM
Hello world! I haven't updated this thinger in forever! (I mean seriously. I am turning 23 soon. The only artwork up is from when I was 19. Okay wow. Procrastination to the extreme.)

Truth is, I've been busy with other things. Soul-eating things, like...college, for instance! ;-) I've let my art slide a little. I've let my uploading of my art slide more. The past 6 months or so, I've been trying to get back in touch with my creative side. I am hoping that remembering that this site exists and disciplining myself to upload pictures of my art on a regular basis will motivate me to keep it up. *crosses fingers* So, if all goes well, you will actually be seeing updates from me. Huzzah! :D

Also, I don't have a lot of people friended yet on this site. I'm not entirely sure who's who here. People who watch me and know me in person, can you do me a favor and let me know of anyone else I am or may be acquainted with in person who has deviantart? It would be immensely appreciated. Thanks a bunch! Oh yeah, and is there a way to screen artwork or journal entries here, show certain things only to certain users like on LJ? I'm not that familiar with this site yet.

And now...sleep would be nice.

G'night!

Hello world! My name is Nikki. I will be 23 in one month (hooray for me!), and I am currently living in Boston and working at a daycare center and acting. I enjoy many things. My most important interests are in my bio below. I have recently taken up SoulCollage and am really excited about it, so I will probably be posting a lot of SoulCollage cards here. Go to [link] to learn what SoulCollage is all about! :)

My dream is to be an expressive arts therapist, early intervention social worker, preschool teacher, special needs advocate/activist, and/or work at a non-profit or after-school program involving the arts and kids. Maybe I will do a lot of different things in my life, maybe even join the Peace Corps and work with orphan children in Ecuador. That would be amasing. I am a free spirit, as you might have gathered. ;-)

My tastes and style of visual art can be best described as eclectic. I will make anything out of anything. Although sometimes I like my drawings or paintings or photography to stand alone, I also rather enjoy gathering up bits and pieces of different types of mediums and put them all together in a single sculpture or collage. Fabric, glitter, leaves, paint, charcoal, cardstock, magazine clippings, clay, shoelaces, pompoms, you name it. I am a scavenger-crafter. To me, art is a way of processing my emotions and life, relaxing, having fun, communicating in a visual way, showing my friends and loved ones that I care through hand-made gifts, and exploring my spirituality.

If you have any questions about me or my artwork, please do not be shy! I love answering questions. :D
