I write as a way of life: stories, blogs, articles, almost-poems. I'm a freelancer, a vegetarian, and I listen to Leonard Cohen and enjoy French films. We are dying a little more with each new day we live, so shouldn't we make the most of our time?

Thank you for this beauty Vincent,love them all lol! :~} Valz ♥
Oh how I wish I could express myself like you, Vincent! But I guess its good that I don’t… it makes me fall in love with your words, a little more, every time I read them.
I have no previous knowledge of this artist and thank you so much for featuring his work. I don’t have a favorite. I was so interested in Demsteader’s style that I went to youtube and found a video there from Nov 16, 2012. In it Mark Demsteader talks about his work and inspirations before his solo exhibition at The White Room Gallery, Bath. I intend to watch it this evening. Thanks again.

I tip my hat. 🙂
Gorgeous! Beautiful colorations.
Do you really have tattoos?
I do, and many.
I have a huge one on my right shoulder blade/back area of the Hindu lovers Radha and Krishna. It’s like a piece of art.
Did it hurt?
Yes. It took nearly 4 hours, and the parts closer to my spine were rough. Others, depending on body location, not so much.
They are all absolutely brilliant!
My vote goes to #4.
Runner up(s): #3, #8, #9.
Your favorites?
Actually, you know what? Erase that ^
I like all of them, especially 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.
So yeah, not going to pick one.
But the question still remains, Vincent – which one(?) is your favorite?
The first. A butterfly should perch on that shoulder.

Haunting and all the women are somehow still fashionable for me. I hope you don’t mind me putting one of those paintings on my blog.
