    About Me: Once upon a time, I ran off with a bear to live in the woods near the big lake, where we are raising three beautiful children, four bad cats and a very spoiled pit bull....I have been drawing and painting for most of my life, with a focus on faeries and other magical creatures. I've only recently been pursuing an artistic career, and it's been somewhat scary to put my mad scribblings out there for anyone to see. Please do not use my work without permission.
    Music: 'Come and Get Your Love', 'Fergalicious', 'Wild Mountain Thyme', 'Ruby Tuesday', 'Dragosta Din Tei', 'Living Dead Girl'....these are the first six songs on my MP3 player, and even I think I have weird taste in music!
    Movies: The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Excalibur, What Dreams May Come, Star Wars, all of Kevin Smith's movies, Gattaca, Shrek 1, 2, + 3 (I am, after all, married to Shrek), The Princess Bride, X-men 1+2(but not three, which made me sad), most bad 'B' movies from forty years ago
    TV: Like everybody else here, I like Dr. Who...Firefly, Buffy, The X-files, Star Trek, CSI, Law and Order, Medium, The Closer, Heroes, Journeyman(why did it have to end???!)House, Torchwood....
    Books: Stephen King, Robin Hobb, Katherine Kerr, Charlaine Harris, JK Rowling, Neil Gaiman, Terry Moore (Strangers In Paradise, so addictive!!!!), Arthur Conan-Doyle, CS Lewis (who oddly gave me pagan leanings at an early age), JRR Tolkein, Isaac Asimov, Robert Heinlein, Anne Rice......
    Likes: Comic books, when my kids decide I'm furniture and we're all just flopped out on the couch, Italian food, the SCA (and being my husband's number one Stick Betty), being a Pagan mom, the way Bristol board feels against my hand, wildflowers, trees, black coffee....
    Dislikes: Mean people, bullies, almost every single photograph of me in existence, cantaloupe, watermelon flavored candy(oddly, I like actual watermelon), snow, anyone who has mistreated a child or animal, things that are too sweet, being told what to do....
    Hobbies: Embarrassing my teenaged children, gaming, movies, my computer, sewing, the SCA, singing (see also: 'Embarrassing my teenaged children'), tarot reading
    Vices: smoking
    Virtues:
    Your fairy is called Columbine Rainbowshimmer
    She is a fortune bringer.
    She lives in mushroom fields and quiet meadows.
    She is only seen when the first flowers begin to blossom.
    She wears lilac and purple like columbine flowers. She has multicoloured wings like a butterfly.
    Heroes: Lee Camp, who was the most glamorous, intelligent, compassionate, impractical, flamboyant, silly, encouraging and loving grandmother in the whole wide world. I have missed her every day for twenty three years and counting.

    More Ado About Art

    Thursday, February 7, 2008, 11:15 PM [General]



    My work in digital form is licensed through MyPaintshopPro Tubes, so if you are a PSP Tag Making Fanatic (And you know who you are!), this would be the place to purchase my tubes.

    I have a more complete gallery at DeviantArt, where all are welcome to check out my artfull trickiness.

    In addition to taking commissions, a number of my drawings are available as originals or prints. Please contact me (monelun@earthlink.net) for details.

    Dear Mona, it is a pleasure to have you here in our EF community, thank you for joining us. I've really enjoyed your gorgeous gallery, my favourite is Under the Mermaid Moon, just beautiful... Your description of family life is wonderful & has me nodding in agreement - time to get our own back eh?! (Actually, I don't think we ever do this intentionally, it just comes with the territory ;)
    Big smiles,
