👽💚He's a WIP buuuut my uke has been painted with the first coat of #culturehustle #sharethelight Stuart Semple's yellow lit pigment 💚👽

[cheesedemon]

As promised here’s my test for Blue Lit in resin casting.

First pictures are right out of the mould, as you can see, some of the pigment has sunk to the bottom, giving them an uneven look. I think I might have used too much pigment rather then too little seeing as the parts with less powder still glows well.

Second pictures are after loading them, spoopy!

Last pictures is in the light after loading them with the light on.

All in all I’m pretty happy with it, might try again with less powder. The glow doesn’t last very long though. Again the mere fact that blue glow in the dark is awailabe is amazing! Might do a set where I drip in blue dye like on the skull, would make a cool Sin Eater set 9/10

HOTEL ROOMS .

.

Hotel Rooms,

Where it’s just me and you

Where sex plays it’s part

And for the first time you tell me the truth

You was honest you see,

But when you told me about the sex you had,

I wished you kept lying to me.

Telling me about kissing your ex

Got me crying you see

I knew you had, sucks I was right

Did you do it out of love ?

Or did you do it out of spite?

Do you truly love her?

Is she the girl of your dreams?

Why do you keep running to her,

When you say your done with me?

What does she give you that I fail at ?

Your in a Hotel room with me.

Do you wish you was where she is at?

How can she come before me?

Is she that important to you?

You run to her like she is all that matters to you

What am I suppose to do?

The truth came out in the Hotel room

and for once I understood what I had to do...

I feel that the universe is trying to speak to me. I keep coming across these. Every. Day. 

One could say I’ve had a rough life. Not the worst. I’m still here, happy for the most part. Or at least trying to be. I always had the necessities provided to me as a child. Not always without a cost. I had to weather more storms before my age hit double digits than any person should have to pull through in a lifetime.

I’m proud to say I have always pulled through, though. Sometimes I’m not really sure how when I look back, but I managed. There are some things that still pop up & create issues at times. It’s been 20+ years since I was raped by my mother’s boyfriend at the not so ripe age of 8, but the trauma that experience caused still affects the way I think & the way I view certain people & situations, & the way I handle some relationships.

There were hurdles before then, there have been many since then, & I’m sure there is more to come. That’s life. But I always persevere. Sometimes there were people there to help. Sometimes I was all alone. At least that’s how I felt. There were always people there, people who truly loved me. But it’s not always easy to share your demons with the world, even with the bit of the world that holds your heart. I feel as if it may be HARDER to open up to loved ones sometimes. That could just be me, though. It took me YEARS to finally open up about some of the things that were done to me as a child. No one even knew the weight of what I’d been carrying until I tried to kill myself as a young teenager & was forced to talk about why.

But that is not what this first post is about, we can touch on that more at a later time. These speak to me more of my most recent “storm” & my life as a whole. 

This month marks 5 years since I met the man(I use this term loosely) I thought I would spend my life with. He was attractive. He was charming. He was funny. & boy do I love funny. He was 21 at the time, & I was 24. Him a single father of one adorable nearly 2 year old little girl, me a single mother of a brilliant 5 year old little boy. I was working when we met. Bartending.

Long story short(yet another subject we will discuss in a later post), I spent over 4 years in an abusive relationship with a narcissist. It wasn’t always bad. We had at least one good year in the beginning. I used that one good year & the kids as an excuse to hold on. 

I shared the small frustrations with friends & family, hoping someone would tell me what I needed to hear. But I never really shared just how bad things got some days. Not then at least. I’ve been able to share more recently, with certain people. I still don’t know if I’ll ever be able to share some specifics with my family. They’re very protective & would likely wind up in jail if they ever found out all that I went through. 

I did finally escape. We split officially a little less than a year ago, about 9 months or so. We gave up our apartment together, & moved in with some family to collect ourselves. He went to stay with his mother. My now TWO boys & I moved back to my mother’s. 

I’ve spent the last 9 months working on me. Pulling myself out of a depression I hadn’t even realized I was in. I had to. For Jason & Zayne. I didn’t know if I was going to be able to count on Zach to be there for them, so I had to work twice as hard. Again.

I cried the tears I needed to. I barely ate. But I kept doing what was necessary to get through each day & provide for the precious lives I was responsible for. 

I went to work. I set goals for myself & my family. I began to work on my personal health, both physical & mental. I reconnected with friends & family I had felt alienated from for so long. I made plans & worked on fixing my finances that got so screwed up over those 4+ years. I signed up to return to school. I gave my kids the best Christmas I could have at the end of that year, & started the following year with a new head on my shoulders. 

I SURVIVED those 4+ plus years. But from this point forward, just as I have always done before once the skies have cleared, I STRIVE. 

I’m not going to say it wasn’t a struggle. It was. For a while. Still is sometimes. But I reminded myself of everything I’ve pulled myself through in the past. I reminded myself of the support system I had waiting on the other side of that mountain for me, & of the people who relied on me as well. And I did what was necessary to get to the other side. 

I’m constantly working on learning & growing. I still stumble over my own feet at times. But I do so gracefully. I fight my inner demons & I continue to evolve & adapt. Sometimes I feel lonely, but even if it’s not at the forefront of my cerebral cortex when my anxiety is in full swing, I know I have people waiting for me, rooting for me, who want to help even if I really need to just fight my own battles. I am strong. And through my struggles & experiences I’ve been able to more recently help others through theirs. 

Stay strong. Be resilient. Sometimes it’s good to be a little bull-headed. Pull yourself up, & lean on that support system to brush the dirt off when you fall on your back. Then use what you’ve learned to grow & help others grow. Set your goals & keep people in your life that will celebrate all your accomplishments, no matter how “small” they are. As long as you are growing, YOU ARE KILLING LIFE!!!

Much love & support, DeeDee

Some progress pictures of my first paid artist commission!

Currently tidying up the lines with another layer of Stuart Semple’s blackest black, then will go over the LIT pigment lines a second time to make sure they are consistently solid and bright. Probably going to get some of his ultra matte varnish to finish this off.

I really enjoy working with these paints. I’m starting to get a better feel for working with the LIT pigment and it works so well with the dayglo bright pigment powders. Used greenest green for this one.
