I want to be so obviously clever that somebody will call me “clever girl.” It always sounds better with a British accent, too. So, it would be extra special if somebody British said it to me.
I am bubbling with ideas right now. Too many to make happen. It’s frustrating having only this one body and [...]

I’m trying my old blog on again. I miss it dear bloggy.
I am frustrated that many of the photos are still broken and the text is all effed up, but let’s not dwell.
I am working on a book I started many months back. I am often torn between writing and art. Then within each thing [...]

Don’t you just revel in those little cosmic moments when everything aligns?
You feel healthy. Your mind is clear or even dreamy and you are buzzing with creative electricity.
When I write or paint I do it at a furious pace. The energy shows up from nowhere.
The muse is fickle, she comes and she goes at her [...]

If you’ve never read the Postsecrets website, you should. It’s a wonderful “living” art project. This was one of this week’s post secrets:
There was a PS months ago, maybe even a year, that stuck with me. It said that she would rather be dead than fat. Those PSs are the exact reason I do this [...]

I know that when I am looking to make a costume I hunt all over the ‘net for ideas. So, I am posting my costume ideas, tricks and when needed - shortcuts.
Jade was Sally this year. We “made” the dress and the wig. All told the whole costume cost under $20.
First we poked around the [...]

Since Jade was Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas this year and she was Corpse Bride last year, I think you can see that she’s a bit of a Tim Burton fan.
I posted a photo of her costume on my old blog last year, but I think most of the photos were broken when it was [...]

I am proud to say that my work is now available at New Moon Bodywork & Botanicals in La Plata. I dropped off about 15 items today which will be available through their store and I hope to keep a fresh inventory there - so go buy something!
I would also like to [...]

River Artsfest is tomorrow. Will, Jade and I will be there, showing our work and soaking up some art. There will be lots of other artists, performers and it should be a lovely day!
Also, my bellydance class is scheduled to perform during the day. I am not performing because I'm busy selling.
I'll also be [...]

We had lovely weather at the Maryland Faerie Festival. Thanks for all of the sunny and dry thoughts, they worked!
Just wanted to let you all know I'm working on photos to make a big 'ol gallery out of the photos Will, Robert and I took at the event.
Here are a few of me [...]

Okay - tomorrow is the Maryland Faerie Festival - www.marylandfaeriefestival.org - and after Sunday my life should go pretty much BACK to normal. Which is to say, it shall stay in chaos, but not quite as stressy chaos.
I am happy to say that one of my favorite things we've made to sell at the [...]

I love that “fairy” can so easily replace VERY. HA!
I have one person signed up for all three of my classes. I'm going to go ahead and do it even with just one student because Jade and I are going to make our fairy wear tomorrow for the Maryland Faerie Festival and get [...]

Sooo, still haven't switched my art site to a more bloggy/gallery type format. Robert's been going to school three nights a week, plus he's still learning to deal with his Darth Vadar-like sleeping mask, so it's not easy to wrangle stuff out of him right now.
My desk is piled with fairy tale books to [...]

Greenbelt II by *HeatherBartlett on deviantART
I want to walk with you
on a balmy night like this
once again in Greenbelt
after we’ve made love
together, on the narrow paths
that wind between the apartments
and sometimes I walk ahead a little
then turn around to look at your face
partially illuminated by happy stars
and a sad moon
I kiss [...]

As you can tell I'm up late - 1:33am by my clock right now.
A couple of years ago when I first had an idea for a “fairy book” that would be a lot like the book of a naturalist, but for fairies - and not all hand drawn as sketches, some as photos - almost [...]

Latest News - February 20, 2007
Hello everybody. Thanks for stopping by. Robert and I are still working on the new layout - he finally found some blogging software that should work for what I want it to do.
I've been working very hard getting lots done so I have plenty of stuff for the Fairy Festival [...]

I've noticed a slight leaning back to darker inspirations for some of my art. I am currently very into Snow White - and I don't mean the Disney version.
After much wrangling with the idea (and discussing with my guys) over whether or not it's “okay” as a goddess and feminist to color my hair, [...]
