Just a Mama Cocreating Utopia, Or a Little Bit About Me

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago  (edited)

Hello world.

I'm Eva. I'm here to make some magic.

The speed date version of myself: I am an artist, crypto-enthusiast, bibliophile, yogi, ethnobotanist, gardener, and wanderluster who finds myself lost in other countries seeking treasures of exotic cultures.

ART=CREATING
CREATING>CONSUMING

This is some of my botanical art. This piece is Queen Anne's Lace.

Below is some of my art In process. I do mostly extremely intricate pen and ink drawings.

And some itty bitty work as well.

I also dabble in digital art, which gets printed on clothing I sell, like this!

Traveling is a way to stay in the present moment, to expand your horizons, to eat delicious food and to learn about the myriad of ways to live. This is one of my favorite moments from traveling in Belize, snorkeling with nurse sharks!

Another special moment came from meeting a gentlemen on CayeCaulker who spends his days repairing bicycles and using that income to care for stray dogs and cats on the island.

When I'm not traveling, arting or gardening, I'm twisting my body in weird ways.

Awesome, thanks so much for taking the time to release great content - I’ve just spent the last two hours on my first post and I’m only half done😂 I’m excited to be here, and will definitely check out your videos.

You're welcome! Yes, writing posts can take forever...
However, it does get a little quicker as time goes on. Not much though, My articles take me about 2 hours to write and another hour to format on Steemit. It's all part of the game we play. Hopefully, the videos will help you out. I think they will ;)

Welcome to Steemit! I was happy to read about your post in @poeticsnake's "You got Snekked!" I have a degree in Biology, really appreciate your botanical pictures, and also make fractals digitally from time to time! Those leggings you made look really awesome.
