Hello and Welcome to my profile!
Name's Claudine, but I usually go by Wolfie or my username SleepyEvilDemon. I made that up when I was 14ish so its not as accurate as I thought it to be though I am often sleepy and some would call me evil or a demon... Maybe it is an accurate description of me...
Anyways I'm 25, turning 26 in August. I love doing crafts when I'm free from my college classes and work. It's a way for me to relax and make a chaotic mess when life tends to be full of rules and working within the lines.
I'm Catholic Wicca which might make some peoples' heads explode but hey it works for me. I'm very open minded when it comes to people's beliefs and only ask the same in return. =]
I'm also an open book so if you have any questions feel free to ask. I'm not too shy about many subjects but that may be because I live in Las Vegas where people tend to lose their inhibitions...or try really hard to. I could also blame my friends but they're another story.
I love learning and experimenting with new crafts but my favorite traditional craft might be using charcoal. For me its so simple to blend and manipulate on the page. I have recently been getting into mixed media projects like altering found objects, or ATCs but I'm still a newbie.
If I had to choose a craft that I've 'mastered' it would probably be digital photography and photo-manipulation since I've been doing it for years compared to more traditional crafts. New to ATCs but not in being creative and having fun.
I starting making ATCs in the beginning of this year, and quickly figured out it wasn't much fun if I wasn't actually trading them. After some research and general snooping about other artists' websites I found out about Swap-bot.
I'm still new to this trading thing, but I'm learning. =]
Hope to trade with you soon!
I'd love to get into a greater variety of crafts but for now I do: Art Journaling ATCs Charcoal Drawings Soft/Oil Pastels Digital Photography Digital Photo-manipulations Making Chaotic Artsy Messes.
I'm the kind of person that will listening to anything in any kind of situation and not care what others think.
As an example recently I've been turning up Country music in my little black Asian sports car and singing along at the top of my lungs. Then revving my engine and taking off like a bat out of hell when the light turns green. Very exciting stuff.
My favorite Artist is P!nk and have loved listening to her songs since day one.
But I also listen to Rock, Metal, Pop, R&B, Rap, Techno, Indie, Country, K-Pop, Alternative, Classical, A cappella ...
Seriously anything that I can dance, sing, or bob my head to I'm set. Though I do have a least favorite type... Not sure why but I'm not a fan of Opera...I'll watch musicals sure...but not opera... I'm a little weird that way.
Hands down I love fantasy and mystery books.
My first book I fell in love with was In the Forests of the Night by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes. A short novel about a vampiress with almost human like feelings. I was 10 and fell in love books after that.
My second favorite book would be Blood and Chocolate which started my love of all things werewolves.
Third, would be Sight which gave me a spark into witchcraft. Granted the book is about a wolf and her pack...there was a splash of Merlin like magic in it.
Other favorite books would be The Hunger Games Trilogy, LOTR, The Hobbit, Harry Potter, Dracula, and The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes.

Hey - I am just assigning partners for the email swap and noticed you were a Catholic Wiccan. If you were interested in pagan-ish swaps, The Cauldron Born is a great group.
Hey Claudine!
I was excited to see a new name in one of my swap listings and have really enjoyed reading your profile and getting to know a little bit about you.
I love that you mention "Catholic Wicca", as there definitely seems to be a similar fusion going on in my house right now. To give you an idea of what this looks like for me, I love Catholic 7 day candles (especially Our Lady of Guadeloupe), have both a Catholic as well as a Buddhist rosary/ mala and tend to spend a lot of time digging around in my garden and appreciating nature in general. I was raised in the Hindu faith, but have really become more eclectic in my adult years-- I figure that there's beauty just about everywhere and on so many different paths. :)
Anyway! That's the long version of "Welcome! I'm so glad that you're here!" Please do feel free to reach out if there are ever any questions that you might have. xo Arianne
