I changed my name to @soulduals on IG.
I was having an art crisis and wanted a fresh start. I've done this a few times before, but I feel more resonated with what I've created now more than ever. I feel like the curse of an artist is that we always feel lost or unsatisfied in what we produce. At the same time, art brings people together. It keeps me together.
If you are on IG, send me a message there! I would love to follow your art too since I don't frequent IG as much as I wish I had time to. I hope you are all safe and well. I miss what DA used to be.
Goodbye, Maybe
I never find myself on this website any more. Yes, there is a lot of beautiful art. Yes, DA is now of sentimental value to me, due to all of the amazing souls art has brought me to through it. Yes, I miss what it used to be. If you don't already, you can find me posting on Instagram almost daily. I am still and forever shooting. Both, my model and photography work is there. I have also started a little multiplicity project, if you're curious.
I may drop in every so often. Like now, it could be several months before I do.

The world is crazier than ever right now. Stay safe, don't lose yourself in the madness. <3
Deleted FB permanently.
I fucking hate the layout. Why are there "likes" on comments now? Why does everything try to be like FB?! There is already enough to keep up with between comments, messages, stacks.... So they add some other shit to keep track of? I want old DA forever. What is this site turning into? I fear soon it will be the next Myspace... Lost, forgotten, and something entirely different. Did I miss something or is there a way to keep your page the same as it was with the revious layout?

Although I do not frequent this site as much as I'd like to, I have decided to pay more attention to the photography aspect of my passion. I will continue to update and share as I get new shoots. I only recently received a new camera, and am forever anxious to create. Between work, children, and the many other ways my life has changed and grown since I originally signed up to be here a decade ago... I hold DA so close to my heart. It's been a journey, and if you were to go through this timeline of images I've uploaded over the years, you will see what I mean. I'm not asking you to do that... It would take forever! However, if you would like to help in supporting my artistic endeavors... I have the cash app, and am taking donations: $snailslovetea
I had to give up my vet tech career temporarily to be home with my children. Any amount helps me regarding equipment, childcare for time away from my kids to do shoots, gas for my travels, wardrobe, MUA, hair, etc. If you can relate and want to extend some generosity, I can't thank you enough. Please let me know who you are, if you do so. I want to appropriately thank anyone who takes the time to render kindness and attention my way.
Without viewers, how would we share out art?
