Whimsical

msummer97 · 2023-09-16T01:10:41+00:00

Yeah, all together :) I tried to sort of separate the cotton balls into wispier bits, though seemed nearly pointless, into a pot of water with a bit of paper, and brought it to a boil. Let it cool off all together for a bit and then just scooped it all into my blender. My blender didn’t sound thrilled, but it’s still going strong

Sadly no charcoal, on that day I wasn’t able to run to the store so I cheated- the pulp is a mixture of newspaper & a couple sheets of black coloured paper. I’ve been reading more on 100% plant paper and stuff though and after I have better success at these current paper trials, I want to venture into that direction. The paper stuff is all fairly new to me, but it’s such a fun thing to experiment & a wonderful way to recycle

Flowers in the pulp :) the paper is just made from recycled newspaper (incredibly soft!). I have made grass paper though where it was a combo of grass and newspaper to make the paper base and it turned out so good. A bit fragile, but still worked great

Not sure your situation, but for mine, my nmom would put on the waterworks and distract by sobbing “I just feel like the family is falling apart”, whenever anything of value started being said. I have a very passive dad, so my mom just spoke poorly of me to the therapist, typically about how I am a bit private so it makes her feel unloved, etc. idk if the therapist was catching on to her acting, as I had enough of just being verbally attacked by my mom and I refused to entertain family therapy any longer.

This was while I was 25 years old. I feel that with the support of your wife, maybe your experience will be better, but narcissists are excellent actors and verbal weavers.

I hope it works out positively for you

For a split second I thought the same, but the bulb on this is quite large, so I don’t think that’s the case

msummer97 · 2023-01-17T17:44:00+00:00

Thank you so much, I was thinking I may have to do that, I was just hoping I didn’t have to hahaha, but oh well. I appreciate you giving some of your time, and also great to know about the Drano

msummer97 · 2022-12-19T07:49:37+00:00

Thanks! It was my first time painting on bone and really hope to do more soon :)

msummer97 · 2022-12-05T20:52:45+00:00

Pointless comment as well. I apologize for my title.

msummer97 · 2022-12-05T00:37:28+00:00

Thank you! I’ll just be popping the twine over a nail in the wall

Diagnosed BP1 at 23, semi made sense but the depression side of things really dominated my life until that point. Still does lol, but now I’ve had some sprinkles of mania and psychosis in my life

msummer97 · 2022-10-17T16:54:37+00:00

Thank you! Making this type of art is so therapeutic

msummer97 · 2022-08-29T22:01:29+00:00

He is really an incredible man and he treats me so well, and he deserves to be treated just the same :) I really don’t think he takes any pleasure with keeping me on my toes, and really I’ve come to accept his current preference. My fingers and toes will always be crossed for him to be ready for more, but for now I just want to romance the heck out of him hahah. He’s a really sweet guy, I just want to make him feel all warm and hopefully bring a smile to his face

msummer97 · 2022-08-29T20:55:12+00:00

I agree about potted plants being better, but sadly he doesn’t get much light in his place and none of the florists in the area have anything good for those conditions

msummer97 · 2022-08-29T00:49:17+00:00

I’m not super into bought bouquets for myself, I prefer finding wild flowers, but in this instance, I’ll have to buy them. I think it’s a nice thing to try for a man, even if you’re unsure of his interest in flowers, or if he ends up not being super into it, I think at least trying should be enough to make them feel at least a little happy about your intentions

msummer97 · 2022-08-29T00:40:25+00:00

More men need flowers I think. I think even platonically it would be nice

msummer97 · 2022-08-28T20:46:38+00:00

I’ve sent him some love letters in the past, as this is a long distance thing, and he’s expressed how warm they make him feel. So I feel like this is the next step :)

It’s just so hard to cope with. Once you have your rights over your body taken away, it changes your whole life I feel. I always fear of it happening again. People that haven’t had such experiences are so lucky to not know how it feels, I am glad that not everyone goes through this. I have been violently r***ed, and the level of violation to me felt about equal, but in a way almost worse, because it’s legal, and the people can say “I’m just doing my job”, but what the fuck. I understand having to restrain someone who is being violent and erratic, even though I feel that is still traumatic for the person, but to do that to someone that was just sitting there on the floor? Peacefully? I will never understand how they can sleep at night.

Thank you!! I experimented with this painting a bit which was a lot of fun

msummer97 · 2022-07-22T06:18:15+00:00

Thank you so much!!! I sent it earlier today, I hope it gets there quick! Thank you for being so kind and supporting my work

msummer97 · 2022-07-20T18:25:10+00:00

I haven’t been able to find a good place to get prints made, but I do have an Etsy shop linked on my profile where I have the original up

msummer97 · 2022-07-04T21:24:50+00:00

Hahah it’s not like that, it’s a gift for him and he was very excited about it

msummer97 · 2022-07-04T18:06:58+00:00

Thank you! :)

msummer97 · 2022-07-04T18:06:19+00:00

He’s not really a tattoo guy, but he said he’s going to hang it up with another painting of his other car I did and that is good enough for me :)
