i love tedium. all those traditional arts that have fallen by the wayside due technological advances, i LOVE doing. cross stitch, embroidery, smocking, miniature dolls, knitting, crocheting, quilting by hand, baking from scratch, basket weaving, etc...there is a solid pleasure for me knowing i made something from very little....

i began writing a book of haiku …which i found out later was actually senryu. haiku use the traditional format of 5-7-5 syllables to punctuate a point and reference nature, senryu is the same format but speak to the human spirit. i started this with the intention to write the book and was unexpectedly picked up by a local publisher! i hope you all will purchase my first release in a line of many to come “mentalcourse: modern erotic senryu” by Kottavei

reserve your copy!

i've been feeling somewhat broken lately. not completely shattered but close. change and growth are those ineveitable things that happen....but all at once!!! it's almost as if i'm being completely made over. all the sure footing i thought i had has shifted. what does one do but adapt. i dislike 95% of the art i've done up until this point, which means i need to study and regroup. reevalute my processes, materials and techniques. i need desperately artistically for my eyes, hands and heart to agree....
