It's amazing how fast time goes by when you are addicted to something. I put down my paintbrush to play an online game and suddenly 3 years of my life are gone. Yep, I am a former World of Warcraft player. It took becoming a mother-to-be and losing a family member to cancer to finally "wake" My Muse out of hibernation and begin painting again. Yep, I have finally rid myself of my computer game addiction and have taken up other hobbies to keep myself busy. I planted my first flower garden in May and I am learning the "art" of scrapbooking. Most exciting of all, I will become a Mother when my little girl arrives in August. =)

So, here I am, back on DA and I am painting again! I have to say, it feels great! Currently I am working on finishing my painting called "Love Worth Dying For", the fire and water elemental couple that I'm doing in watercolor. It's been "in progress" for the last couple of years and it will be the first of many paintings that I will finish soon!

  • Mood: Euphoric
  • Listening to: Gladiator soundtrack
  • Reading: lots of baby books
  • Watching: Rome, The Tudors, BSG, & Heroes
  • Playing: with my 5 Dachshunds
  • Eating: Cheesecake... hmmm.
  • Drinking: Sonic Cherry Slush!

Hi Albrecht,

Glad to see you on DA!

I've been a fan of your website for some years now, and every once in a while I check in to see if you've got any new art. I love your work, and can't wait to see more!

Hi there! Thanks for the comment! I'm sorry to say that I haven't created any new art pieces in several years... partly due to my former computer game addiction, but new works will be on the way soon! Or they will be once my daughter is able to entertain herself so that I can actually sit and paint again. =)
