The first day of the #justacard challenge is “YOU”
… So, this is me. My name is Crystal and I’m a self-taught polymer artist, just beginning my back journey.
And…10 things about me.

1. I love to dye my hair… But I hate to brush it.
2. I love love love to travel and I’m obsessed with Utah.
3. I’m a tree hugging dirt worshipper. I actually hug trees. I seriously collect sticks, rocks, and pinecones.
4. I love funky shoes, but I prefer to be barefoot.
5. I’m disabled from a car accident. I have herniated discs, spinal stenosis, foraminal narrowing, and degenerative disc disease.
6. I was a wedding designer before I had to “retire” at 35. I’ve helped design $50,000+ weddings and it was the craziest, most fun job ever.
7. I love animals, probably more than people..I have 4 cats and I’m obsessed with foxes.
8. I like to smell the soap everywhere I go. Always she’ll the soap.
9. I am a succulent hoarder. I stopped counting at 150. Most of my money goes to plants.
10. I have the most amazing support system that includes my husband, my siblings @celisticwolf @bendragonstudio and @vietnam_loving_derp, my bestie of 20 years @punkdivaa311 and my parents. Without these people, I wouldn’t be who I am..

Last night i decided to go back and finish an image i worked on a while ago. It was for a fallout DND campaign that I’m still doing but don’t really need the art I thought I needed for it lol. I liked the idea of softer kinder supermutants who were a bit more friendly softer supermutants and actually got super inspired by this tweet. So here she is! Mei Shen! She loves books and spends most of her scavenge time looking for unruined ones. I would like to think in Fallout 4 she would love all the overdue books around the Commonwealth
