Whoa! A reader and her husband got the binding rune tattooed on to match. And the Dante quote! Now that is love.

Hey fandom, you’re fucking fierce. So, is my love for you. Never change. ;*

while these are cool ‘fearless’ is written incorrect, ‘iratze’ strokes are backward.

One Day, I’ll make a tutorial proper. gimp hands not withstanding, barring cocktail napkins all together…*sigh* one day…

i-if this a thing of realness… I WILL LOVE ON IT FOREVER.

j/k. even if its a manip, I will still love on it forever & for always. This is that sort of thing I want to point to and tell my mom, “THAT is what my creatiness brought into the world!” And she would just shake her head & I would laugh and laugh. the end.

Especially to the Girl at the Library, so into reading “City of Bones” she didn’t stop to watch where she walked… (I can only assume you go to PS.95, because of how young & petite you are, although I went to MS.143 around the bend & couldn’t have been an inch bigger. Apologies for not getting your name.)

Normally an internet embargo on my part means I’m up to artistic doings and preparing for a flood of creative-goodness. And maybe this is, in a lengthy roundabout distinctly unfun way— in November of 2010 I sought treatment for problems with my joints, specifically my wrists & knees. And in the logical progression, for the depression that would follow. By December (17th to be morbidly precise) tremors and weakness in my hands made it difficult if not impossible to brush teeth, comb hair, open doors, type and if you haven’t guessed yet, draw.

Anyone local, or who saw me over New Years/MoCCA Artfest certainly noted I am sporting my time-tested knee & hand braces once more! Tried and true little buggers they are. But by February physical therapy was proven ineffective. Now all sorts of experts have started poking, Ortho, Vascular, Neurological, etc.

I’ve never been a super healthy person but even at my worst, I’ve always had art to keep my sane. Going into my seventh month of being incapable of creating, commuting or even computing, I don’t think I’ve ever been so scared—

• And then I get a praise from my ambulance driver (‘sup Anesdi)
• And then I get written up in a school paper.
• And then get things like this forwarded to me; 

Phrases like “Courage” and “Fearless” aren’t banter for me, they’re works of art. Now I am learning “Faith” is as well.

Things are going to get harder before they get better but I feel like a fighter again.

Thank you for that :)

Just got this in one of the coolest e-mails from a fan, just about, ever!

from jimmygreen

If anyone, anywhere, does anything nearly as cool as getting my designs tattooed on them, PLEASE share.
Stuck. Sort of speechless. In grinning power-crazed creative amusement here. And I could really get used to it.
