**IF YOU HAVE NOT RECIEVED YOUR SWAP PLEASE LET ME KNOW ASAP!!!!! i send all my swaps out and yes sometimes the postal service loses stuff, just let me know and i will resend*** thank you

Hello I'm Kurtina or Tina, I'm a mom and a wife. :) I'm from Hilo Hawaii but i currently live in Texas. I have 2 sons, Brandon just turned 12 and Jacob will be 11 in June. My husband and I met when we were both in the US Army. We have been married for 12 years. I'm a stay at home mom that every now and then has to much time on her hands lol. We have 1 dog his name is Jack and hes a Boston Terrior, 2 turtles that my sons have named Raphel and Butthead. And we have some fish the only fish that has a name is our HUGE suckerfish and his name is Godzilla.

I am currently participating in multiple art exhibits with the Art House Coop located in New York. I have found it to be very inspiring and fun. I'm enjoying steping out of my comfort zone and try new techniques. Alot of my artwork is inspired by my culture (hawaiian and japanese) and i love to make things that are Polynesian Contemporary. But I love all crafts :) drawing, painting,cross stitching, scrapbooking, photography and I'm recently learning how to make ATC's :) I can promise although I'm new to Swap Bot I will do the best that I can in all swaps!

I'd love to have new pen pals as well email me if you are interested :)
