Adept in the ancient, Well-versed in the arcane
hello!
for all who do not know me, I'm a Christian woman who happens to love metal, hence the name. Black metal of pretty much any kind is by far my favorite, though I also have a huge thing for stoner/sludge, along with a bit of folk and a bit of death when I'm in the mood for it. I am a non-practicing dental hygienist, as I have discovered that I'd rather do something else with my life. I am going back to school to purse a degree in fine arts, as art is one of my passions in life. I also love history, science, and the learning of all things. I love to read, especially classic literature and fantasy (LOTR and WoT, thus far), along with any non-fiction I can get my hands on. Outside of the above, you'll also run into a lot of sci-fi, as I am a huge Star Trek fan (TNG!) and a Star Wars fan too.
Basically anything I like will go on this blog
Character, like a photograph, develops in darkness.

Finished inking all but three flowers! Seriously considering ditching the stems and throwing in background flowers to fill the negative space. I hate stems. XD essential to the life of a flower, but a pain in the ass to draw! I’ll pick up on this tomorrow. This will take a while, but I don’t care!
And tonight’s drawing music was Blut der Nacht and Strid!
Blut Der Nacht
Sargnagel EP 2012
If you haven’t listened to this band/album yet… DO!!!! It is truly glorious black metal discovered on the truly glorious Svn-Okklt! And physical stuff on Fallen Empire, of course.
The arts exploded on my bed!!
Quick nonobjective sketch I did while watching King of the Hill! I really like the negative space in this one. Might carry the theme over to a canvassed piece soon….in color!
