I love to wear colorful sunglasses that stand out. This is one of my favorite pairs, and I think the red color of the lens is really vibrant and beautiful.
This is a card from my tarot deck. It's the five of chalices, which signifies something going wrong, and disappointment. The subject must either move on and accept the loss, or renew their commitment and try to rekindle what they are missing. I pulled the card in respect to my tarot practice, since I've lost spiritual touch with my deck and my readings rarely come out right anymore. I need to start using them more again, and truly committing to learning the meanings by memory.
This is the kind of bubblegum I would always buy with my allowance money as a kid when my mom took me to the asian market. It's really cheap, and the flavors are good. I always liked the little boxes the gumballs come in. Strawberry was my favorite, so when I stopped in an asian market recently and saw a pack, I bought them.
I always dye my hair vibrant colors. It's been purple, blue, silver, red, pink, and now it's back to purple again. I chose not to mess with the vibrancy or saturation of the colored image in order to show how truly bright the dye is. It was hard to edit this picture because of how finicky individual strands of hair are, and it's difficult to know where the hair ends or starts again. I messed up on my face once, and had to go back and fill in part of the grey with the paint tool and blend it out.
This is the back of my car, once belonging to my dad. He's from Scotland, and every car he's had has a Scottish flag sticker on the back. Of course, when I started using his old car, I kept the old stickers, although the flag is old and peeling. It's a big part of the identity of the car. Similarly, our Scottish heritage is a big part of my dad's identity, and a part of mine. I always knew which car to go to as a kid by the flag, and now I know how to find where I parked the same way.
I organize all my markers by color, and is is my purple/blue jar. B1 Pastel Blue is one of my newer markers, as well as one of my favorites to use, which is why I chose to highlight it.
This mug was gifted to me by a friend of six years. We were best friends since fifth grade, and it was only a year ago we stopped talking to each other. I've since realized that she never valued me as much as I valued her. There were many occasions where she hurt me because of who I am, or left me when I needed her support. She was never able to be as genuine or open about her identity as I am, and it pains me that she hurt me because of that, but I hope that one day she can be proud of who she is and live the way she truly wants to instead of conforming to other's expectations. I wouldn't be friends with her again, but I'm grateful for the things she left me. This mug is a physical example of that, and it'll always be one of my favorites.
This is a pumpkin out by our front door that I bought in early October so my mom could have one to carve. My girlfriend and I carved all the others, and they're well rotted and gone by now. My mom never carved hers though, so it's still sitting out there. I thought it would make a nice picture because I love the color of pumpkins.
My cat has very pretty green eyes. They stand out in a dark room because when she looks your way it seems like the shadows are looking at you. I enhanced the color to give them a greater contrast with the black and white background.
These are my favorite scissors in the kitchen because the handle is slightly bendy, and they're a pretty color. They stand out against the knives and other scissors, so I used them for one of my pictures.
