| Breyerfest 2008, Day 1 (Friday) |
[23 July 2008|03:26pm] |
I've started going through my second horse-crazy phase. I loved horses as a kid/teenager, but didn't pursue the craze through college (even though the first college I attended had a stable! I really should have taken lessons… oh well.)
![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) calicougar mentioned Breyerfest to me. I had been to a few model horse shows, thanks to calicougar, but the main draw of Breyerfest was the horses themselves! calicougar wanted to meet up there, and since I hadn't seen her for a couple of years I agreed. Yay, friends and horses!
( Breyerfest 2008! Many photos, and long! )

| To the artists who contributed Pallas' Cat art! |
[16 February 2007|05:19pm] |
If any of you artists have contributed Pallas' cat art to my website, there's a fellow named Mike Friese who has been asking to reprint art for a newsletter. Here is the email I received from him:
Karena,
I edit the Feline Conservation Federation Journal, a magazine of hands-on
exotic feline husbandry which just celebrated its 50th year. FCF is a
non-profit organization.
Could I reprint your Pallas' cat painting? In addition to a credit, upon
publication I'll send you the printed version of the journal with your
artwork.
Mike Friese
This is a genuine organization, and I'm personally pleased to be asked to have my art in the 'zine. In fact, looking at some of the topics of their past 'zines, I may subscribe just because it looks kind of cool!
Just wanted to let you all know.

Has it really been over a year since I last posted here? Time seems to go by so quickly. Anyway, I updated the needlefelting page with 6 sculptures that hadn't been put up yet.
I still need to put up a commission page.

| Hooray. |

I have finally gotten off my lazy rump and finished Dragonsmirk. It's now open for business. Feel free to mock my bad design. I never said I was a web designer! ;)
Now I'll have to get busy and keep updating it regularly from now!

| A rare update! |

I have done little to no work on dragonsmirk.com! Go me!
However, I have started a sketch journal at stripedhyena. Feel free to check it out if you like. Don't expect masterpieces there. ;D

I suddenly realized that while I know what's going on with my site, no one else does.
Dragonsmirk is about 60% (re)done, but I've been distracted by National Novel Writing Month for the month of November. I'm writing about hyenas, yay! I don't see Dragonsmirk getting finished in November. Perhaps in December I'll kick myself in the butt and get the site wrapped up.

Yes, I am actually working on my site! Things are slowly but surely coming together. I need to wrangle some of my animations to put up. o_O And tonight get some photos of my guinea pigs for the pets page. :D

|
| Whee! |

Dragonsmirk.com is currently down for the count (being moved to a new server). It will be back, bigger but not necessarily better. :D
You can see the work in progress here.

Well, I started reading the Teach Yourself CSS in 24 Hours book. So far so good. I also finished the splash page image, and am somewhat pleased with it, though it won't be uploaded until the entire site is redone.
More importantly, I took steps to get my password re-assigned on Network Solutions so I can work on transferring dragonsmirk's dns information over to a different provider, then whee!
I hope to have the site done this summer.
I apologize for the boringness of this entry. I think I will go have dinner now.

| Pallas cats |

I just love me some Pallas cats!
I don't know why. I'm not a huge cat fan- I like them okay, but I'm more of a canine/hyena/viverrid person. But I love Pallas cats. LOVE THEM.

Hello!
If I've added you as a friend, it's because I enjoy/admire your artwork, and wanted a convenient way to keep track of several people whose artwork I like. You do not need to add me back! All the entries here are public anyway, so you won't be missing anything.
This journal is set up mainly to show my art and mention new things that I'm putting up on Dragonsmirk (and possibly another website I'm working on). Dragonsmirk itself is currently undergoing a major rehaul, and I hope it will be done by fall, though if it gets done by the end of the year, that will be good too. 9_6
