While I was Away...
What Happened to You?
I was off of Steemit for almost a week, so, what in the heck was I doing? Well, camping in the woods, of course. It is the thing to do in Colorado when all seems lost and you need to get away from the "stress" of being homeless.
Getting out of Steamboat Springs was an issue. It was my intention to meet @artopium at Grand Mesa but news of this expedition came to me at the last minute. Thankfully, @artopium had already invited @davedickeyyall, who was willing to pick me up from Steemboat Springs. Wait. Is that a typo?
I put drawing on hold for a while as I spent time in Buena Vista and Grand Mesa camping with friends and appearing on an episode of #themorningbowl. However, there was one day at Grand Mesa where it was just me and @artopium with little to do around camp, so I picked up this Prismacolor drawing I had started before to finish it. It is the mother from the previous drawing I shared.

Why the Blue Skin?
Oh, gee, that one is an easy one. Not long after meeting these humans, In 2012, I had gone to Crater Lake to smoke DMT for the first time. Alone. They say you aren't supposed to do that....
Oops!
Long story short, after exhaling the drug I was "whisked" upward into some other crazy dimension where I was greeted by 4 females with "blue" skin. I say, "blue", because it wasn't really blue. It was really all colors oscillating in a way that made me think I was seeing music/sound that just seemed more blueish than anything else. These beings were most certainly "alive" and seemed familiar. One of these females was clearly in charge of everything. Using telepathy, I was told,
"You aren't supposed to be here, yet."
I felt a pull downward. The last thing I heard was,
"Don't forget to love people."
Whatever that means?
Same image again, but at a dizzying angle for funsies!
Much Love, people!

The more I see the more I love your art man!
Thats true, "Don't forget to love people"...
Glad you are having fun in nature!
Be safe!

Actually, since I got back from camping, I have been staying with @artopium getting caught up on some computer stuff. I notice I draw a lot less when I have a "home". I will be back out in nature soon if my cousin would start making sense to me. Thanks for paying attention to my work, friend. <3
Glad you get some time to get your computer stuff done.
So you are cousins with @artopium?
/FF
Not cousins, friends. I do have an opportunity to meet my cousin, who is not on Steemit, near Rocky Mountain National Park this weekend. Not sure if I should go or not. She thinks I am a fugitive.
Sorry I shouldn't ask so many questions, not my business.
Remember that tv-series "the fugitive", you should make a portrait of Richard Kimble and give her.

I haven't seen that TV Show, though, I have seen some imagery from it. Sorry for the tardiness of my reply, I had no notification that you had even commented more.
No worries its steemit it comes with built in flakiness, so you don't have to be flakey, it helps you do that by not actively notifying you. You have to search activley...
The people here who use discord, use "@ginabot" for that...
I don't take it personally if someone dosen't reply consistently,
people also have lives to maintain...=)
Cheers!!!

My cousin loves wine pieces. I will probably be commissioned to paint one for her if I choose to visit. :D
Cool, I love wine bottles and wine glasses depicted in art, not sure why!
I also used to be quite a "wino" for a while... =)
Happy weekend!

Ah, so that clover is there for a reason? :p
