"Alive and Loving it!"

The phrase I live by Alive and Loving it, Why? Well let me explain:

LOVING IT!: It's true that as war breaks out, I'd be drinking tea some thousand miles away and the general marched his troops to their obstreperous fate. I'd be dunking my favourite chocie biscuit. "Make love, not war." to quote a bygone age but this is not all that a lover can be. A lover, to me, also entails the raw passion of my adoration for all things 'ART'. A small heading for such a large and subjective discipline. Art and it's topic "what is and is not art?" is an even bigger debate. It inspires, captures, transforms and touches everyday life. In a subject living in arduous scrutiny it also shows us utter calm. I don't believe that there will ever be a day that I do not stand in awe of this aspect of our complicated lives. It thrills all my senses.

ALIVE: Alive qualifies my life. Life itself is a difficult journey no matter where you are born, your mind will find it's pit falls that can drag you down. It seems tough but if you pull yourself through with humour and happiness you can survive anything. Remember always that "What does not kill us makes us stronger."! Enjoy the sunshine and laugh at the small failures. Tomorrow will come around and it will be a brighter day! I am alive and I am happy!

I wish you the best of luck in your journey, let's hope it leads you to a happy haven. Enjoy the art that surrounds you and the secret beauty in every single day.

Take Care,
*Kit*

Well, in recent months I moved to my own little place in the sun. It's just me and the cat. Missy. My 2 year-old tabby girl. She's purrrfect. I don't think I've been happier than I am now. Settled without fear of recourse. It's me against the big bad world and you know what this time, there is no fail.
To celebrate this wonderful move I am going to be uploading a variety of different styles of artwork. It appears thats what my talent is. To be a mixed media traditional junkie. So bring on the needles and clobber.

Do you any of you, my friends, have any requests? What would you like to see me produce?

I'm open to suggestions.
