Anyhow, all good things come to an end and I'm planning to get a head start on the next academic year in a couple of days time, at which point my participation on this site will be seriously reduced, so response to comments or notes may not be all that snappy.  I have however got a cera ]]> http://sarahorsomeone.deviantart.com/journal/Quick-Update-318150704 http://sarahorsomeone.deviantart.com/journal/Quick-Update-318150704 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 11:19:41 PDT Quick Update nonadult journals/personal Sarahorsomeone http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/s/a/sarahorsomeone.jpg?3 Copyright 2012-2013 ~Sarahorsomeone
I went to see the Fencing at the Olympics last night (women's individual epee semi-finals and finals), which was an amazing experience. I was moved from some cheap seats off to one side into some amazing front-row centre ones. I took a few photographs (although only with my compact camera; didn't want to have to lug my SLR along with me) a couple of which I've uploaded. There was quite a lot of drama going on and a Korean fencer ended up sitting on the piste crying for an hour :-(.

The academic year is now complete and my exams are done until next year. Hopefully I'll have a bit more time for creative stuff over the next few weeks, although the only particular plan I have at the moment is to make some vial pendants (I just ordered the bits I need).

To my astonishment it's turned out I got a Daily Deviation on my portrait of my elephant hawk moth, Eric (who was, last night, released into the wild). I was not expecting this at all, and I'm very grateful to :devladyxwinter: for suggesting it, to :devhellfirediva: for featuring it and of course to Eric for being such a well-behaved model! It's really made my day! I'm currently getting about 1 favourite or comment every 2 minutes so there's no way I'm going to be able to keep up with everyone (especially as I'm supposed to be revising for an exam), but I really do appreciate it.

I've not got any projects currently underway, but I have just ordered a created star sapphire cabochon and a silver pendant setting to have a go at setting, so wish me luck there (at least created sapphire is pretty much as close as you can get to indestructible... even if I break the setting the stone will be fine.). I also have a couple of things to upload at some point.

Thanks all the favourites eve ]]> http://sarahorsomeone.deviantart.com/journal/Nearly-5-000-pageviews-251711678 http://sarahorsomeone.deviantart.com/journal/Nearly-5-000-pageviews-251711678 Mon, 08 Aug 2011 09:59:37 PDT Nearly 5,000 pageviews! nonadult journals/personal Sarahorsomeone http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/s/a/sarahorsomeone.jpg?3 Copyright 2011-2013 ~Sarahorsomeone
I should be getting the first of my books for the next academic year in a couple of weeks and, since I want to get a headstart, you might not hear or see much more from me for a while from then onwards because I'll be too busy writing essays on bowel cancer*

Next week I'm being taught how to use a piercing saw, and how to solder. Wish me luck. If the finished pendant never turns up on deviantART it probably means I was so appallingly bad at making it I can't bear to show anyone. Apart from stringing a pearl necklace for my Mum, a fairly simple job from a technical point of view, I haven't done much art/craft recently. I sewed some curtain linings today, but that's not terribly artistic as jobs go. ]]> http://sarahorsomeone.deviantart.com/journal/I-m-still-here-223074899 http://sarahorsomeone.deviantart.com/journal/I-m-still-here-223074899 Thu, 11 Nov 2010 07:46:19 PST I'm still here! nonadult journals/personal Sarahorsomeone http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/s/a/sarahorsomeone.jpg?3 Copyright 2010-2013 ~Sarahorsomeone
I'm starting a natural sciences degree in the new year and I've been brushing up on my maths skills to get ready for it, plus seeing as my health* seems to have been pretty good recently it's harder to excuse myself time to do things that aren't "useful".

My photo-manipulation piece "Beware of the Dandelions" http://sarahorsomeone.deviantart.com/art/Beware-Of-The-Dandelions-142387644 recieved it's 100th favourite yesterday! It's the first time I've ever broken the 100 favs barrier and I'm absolutely delighted! Many many thanks to everyone who favourited it :).

I think I also reached the 20 watchers mark sometime last week, and again I can't over-emphasise how much I appreciate the gesture!

With big thanks to everyone, Sarah :D ]]>
