Chicago IL - Tumblr Posts
Some of my photos from this year...
(Taken at the Harold Washington Library train stop. July 2014)
(Relaxing in the park, wearing my sweet purple laced Converse. Summer 2014)
(A couple of Bot Bakery goodies. Summer 2014)
Some pics taken of me this year... so far...
(My friend took this photo of me. I asked her to take some photos that I could use for a head shot and full body shot (I'm an actor too) but she kept making me laugh. Spring 2014)
(Spring 2014. Taken by my friend @ the Logan Square Farmers Market when it was indoors. That building is gone now. It use to be a bakery that was one of my trick-or-treating stops when I was a kid.)
(Summer 2014. Taken by my mother; she was trying to get me to laugh and it worked (just not in this photo). Sun light in my line of vision made my eyes all squinty.)
(Summer 2014. Ugh, glasses glare. That's not an outfit I'd normally wear but I was chilled that night. The t-shirt was more baggy than my button down shirt. Photo taken by my mother using my camera.)
Oh, my many styles of outfits & looks... Well, that's enough photos of me. Don't you think?
August 6, 2015 - Thursday
So, lately, I’ve been thinking about starting something like a little art hunt here in Chicago, IL.
You know, drop clues here and there. I’ll probably be using Twitter and Tumblr (to an extent) if I actually do it. I don’t have a Facebook account and no I won’t be setting one up either.
Slight problem is I don’t have a smart phone. So, I’d have to set up all the clues & art work prize (yes, it’ll be free) a head of time, get my bum to a computer and then let you all know where/when to start.
The art work prizes will typically consist of drawings. Also, the occasional painting and/or textile based prize. ONE prize per art hunt.
The art hunts, if I should decide to start one, will not have any specific dates. They’ll be done at random.
Don’t worry, sometimes I’ll post a picture of the prize before hand and other times I’ll give you an idea of what it is. Example: Like it’s size and medium.
Also, I’d love it if you all take pictures during the art hunt and then post them (on Twitter and/or Tumblr) once that particular hunt is over. I’ll come up with a hash tag for you guys to use at a later time.
NOW, for the drawings I’ve been working on recently. My scanner cut off two of my drawings just a little bit.
So, what do you all think?
Photos
Just some of my photos I recently tweeted.
As usual, please, do not use without my permission BUT I am totally ok with photo posts being reblogged.
A smores doughnut (very yummy) from Fritz Pastry ( https://twitter.com/FRITZPASTRY ) - it was their doughnut of the day. Fritz Pastry is located at 2233 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago, IL 60614. They also make a very yummy cinnamon/sugar doughnut. I had gotten two of them but they didn’t last long enough to get a photo taken.
A honey bee and I can’t remember if I took this photo somewhere in downtown or Lincoln Park. I love bees, they’re so cute! Btw, this vegan refuses to eat honey. I don’t like the taste of it and I don’t want to contribute to their stress. <3
I really like the colors of the sunset and tried to get a photo of it. I was on the brown line train and took this photo while it was moving.
Sedge and Fluffle
So, I’ve left a pink/white origami crane on the brownline.
I hope whoever picks it up likes it.
Have a lovely weekend. =^.^=

Sunset - July 6, 2016 by VelvetShadows
I love the colors of the sky, the contrast of the buildings, and the clouds.
It’s available for print in my DeviantArt shop.
My best friend is a gluten-free & vegan baker and chef. If you have gluten sensitivities then you should check out all the goodies that she makes.
