Waitomo Glowworm Caves are a famous tourist attraction because of the large population of fireflies that live in caves. Fireflies, or Arachnocampa luminosa - tiny bioluminescent creatures that produce blue and green light live exclusively in New Zealand.

There are glowworms in Australia, too! I had the good fortune to see some when I was in Queensland earlier this year; they are magical. Their mucus webs look like tiny strands of pearls; they are shockingly tiny and wonderfully delicate. (Mind you, I still really want to go to Waitomo…)

Rainbow Dash! I had to redo this one a FEW TIMES to get something I liked X_X first time… I don’t remember what I messed up? A couple of things. I fully finished the second attempt but the lining was too dark and I didn’t like that I had added lining to too much of the mane and tail.

Nothing I ever do is perfect (such is the nature of art!!!) but 3rd time is the charm and this is the one I’ll be keeping (although the other fully finished version I will have at Everfree and stuff to sell, its not TERRIBLE by any means its just not what I wanted)

Rarity!

I’m a little bummed because I am JUST NOW SEEING that her head looks a little large in proportion to her body in comparison to the other ponies I did 8l But I SO SO SO love how I did her mane and tail, and spent pretty much ALL DAY yesterday painting that part SO CAREFULLY and I love how it turned out, that I guess I’ll just have to live with it 8l

but seriously plz appreciate this mane and tail - I have put so much love into the hair on all of these but this took a particularly large amount of work 8l pfffff

Heavy Metal Dads …Because Father’s Day Is Metal!

What is a great way to end a long-term volunteer work?  

Travel. c”,)

So me and my backpack have been roughing it up over the past 4 weeks in Madagascar.  Went local (but still paid at times like a tourist!).  We’ve been regulars of all their means of public transportation — taxi-be (like marshrutkas), taxi-brousse (trucks that take passengers), real truck (that’s brimming with stuffs and animals, then filled with 50-60 people if space permits….what space?!), back of pick-up cars also filled with things and people, pirogue (a small boat operated by paddle and sail), and cart pulled by zebu.

Met wonderful people.  Saw wonderful and remote places. Experienced another country — its people and culture.  Learned a lot.  

Fun.  Tiring.  Body (and pocket) aching.
