Postcards from a Summer Girl is full of tight, exact poems punctuated by precise images. I place an empty glass/ upon drywall, but I can't/ listen to vacancy.

She photographs both urban and rural decay, and likes to haunt car shows, where she is frequently found lying on the ground to get a shot of a hood ornament or door handle set against the sky. contact Shae (index.php?option=com_contact Itemid=3).

I also use the BoxWave stylus. My favorite painting application is ArtRage, although I also use several others depending on the subject matter and style. I began painting digitally due to severe disablilities (http://www.dysgirl.com/) which render me bedridden much of the time. In this way, I am able to sketch and paint on my back in bed. My paintings are then produced on either fine art paper as a Giclee print or on traditional stretched canvas.I paint for therapy and to keep my mind off of my disabilities and pain. I usually paint flat on my back with my legs elevated. Technology has allowed me to get back to my artsy self, despite severe disabilities. There are several wonderful apps that really do justice to the painting and drawing experience. My current favorite is ArtRage. As far as the stylus goes, I use BoxWave and also the Nomad Brush. Though most of my current paintings are technically ‘digital’, they are absolutely hand done, and I mix my own colors and do all of the blending and layering of colors and textures by hand, just as I would with normal paints. The wonderful part is NO MESS to deal with, and no set up to fuss over. Below are a few samples of recent paintings from my Birds Collection...
