Description
I did not have to fight with that darn tablet today. It felt like behaving so I took the opportunity to put this together.This is dedicated to someone who totally and completely inspires me. When I am in a slump and cannot seem to create, I go for a wander through her gallery. This beautiful lady is always willing to answer questions, share her secrets and give encouragement. =Dezzan , you don't know how rare and marvellous you are. Thank you for your beautiful spirit.

My man says he wants me to print some off and put them up. He LOVES my art so much...we really shouldn't be spending money on stuff like that but he insists on keeping my life as normal as possible and filling it up with beautiful things. He still always gets me a new nail polish color every month and makes hair appointments for me 3 times a year. I can't argue with him about it either. Not when he looks at me with those blue eyes. He has Casavir's coloring lol...black hair and bright blue eyes and forget about saying no to him.

He is a sweetheart!
And he is right about keeping life as normal as possible and still doing things that are fun and nice, but not entirely useful. My boyfriend does that, too: he's the optimistc one in the couple.
If you have a good printer, you could get those lovely plexiglass clip frames and do it for a relatively small amount of money. A lot of your works have their own painted frame, like this one, so they'd look good with clip frames: they don't need another border outside of them!
I used to print stuff I liked on thick paper and it looked very good.

I was just talking about those clip frames with :devhira87: about her art! She photographs all sorts of plant life and some of her photos are just superb! I do not have a printer capable of printing fine art work like this.
2 reasons really: the resolution is not good enough on any printer I could afford to buy, and second and most important the sizes of my work are not standard sizes. This is why on some that I submit as prints I can only list certain sizes. What happens is those borders get cut off and the work shrunk or pieces left off to fit the "mold". Places here like department stores that have those little photo booths can't print my work either for the same reasons.
So I have a special digital printshop down the road that handles this for me Its $25 for a huge sheet of fine art paper and I can put on that what I wish. The downside to multi jobs though is that they do not cut the art out for me, and with clear glass mounting your edges have to be "architect straight" or it ruins the feel.

Wow, $25 is a good price to get your prints in the sizes that you like and on good quality paper.
About cutting... I don't have the kind of tool used to make clean, straight cuts, so I would have to let my boyfriend do it for myself, as I am a total disaster at cutting in straight lines.

Takes one of those guillotine devices that they have at specialty shops. Im sort of wondering why they don't have one at this printshop but the graphics art place probably does.

You have a graphics art place in your town? Lucky you!
I need to drive for 1 hour and a half and then take several public transports to get to a decent place.

Isn't that odd? This cruddy little town of old people has a graphics art place and a specialty print shop. I applied to work for the graphics art place but they use programs there I have no idea what the hells they are. And they insisted on someone with a fancy degree. Not fair.

That's really not fair!
What about the print shop?

A fellow I went to high school with works there. I have asked him about jobs there and he totally ignores me so Im not even going to bother. Really made me feel sad to find someone from the old world way out here and have them snub me so hard. I mean we are not in school anymore, we sure aren't teens...really upsetting.

I know what you mean... I would have gone "Wow, nice, let's talk to each other and get back to know each other, it's going to be nice" and get extremely disappointed.
Or, in case of being at his place, I would have been happy to help you.
That's why I hate people.

I told my man about it too...I showed him the private messages on FB I sent Todd asking where things are in the town, what to do for fun. And never a single response. He said hi the first time I said I had moved here...and after that not a thing. It is like he doesn't WANT to have a friend from the old world...but I do not know why. It was strange too. I knew he lived here due to Facebook. Then one day we were walking through this town and I went into the print shop and there he was. He seemed so shocked to see me it was like he wanted to run away. I don't get it. Yet he talks and banters on FB with many other souls from the old world. It feels personal to me, like I did something bad to him and I know that never happened. We were classmates and casual friends...nothing else. Nothing bad.

Perhaps he believe that you know something embarassing about him that you could use against him.
Or perhaps he did / said something behind your back ages ago and now he fears thta you might know it, or something.
I can't think of any reason that doesn't sound extremely immature.

Same! Who cares what was said and done in highschool? That is dumb kids' stuff and everyone has grown up and out of that mindset. Well I would hope. He was never one of those gossipy mean guys either which is why it has me stumped. I was so excited to have someone I knew here too...Im very lonely and have no friends at all. I spend every day alone with my dog when my hubby is at work.

Oh, but you are a lovely person. You deserve friends!
I am not sure if I would confront him and ask him what's wrong, or if I'd just let him be.

Oh I don't bother with him, not after the first time he snubbed my questions. I try and keep all negative things out of my life. Who needs them? Its his loss. If he has some weird neurosis that he allows to stop a friendship then who needs it hehe.
