Ive gotten lots of praise for my wands and they have been selling very well. For some reason I cant stop making them. Its very meditative. So I've opened an online store where I am selling my wands.

My store is called the ace of wands. The meaning of the Tarot card was perfect for this new venture.

The wand is an amazing tool in the worlds of fantasy and Magick. But it holds great importance in the real world as well. Throughout the history of mankind different forms of wands in many different cultures have been used. The Ancient Egyptians, Celtic Druids, Greek Philosophers, even Buddhist Monks have used them in there spiritual and magical practices. Even today the symbol of the wand holds great meaning. For instance the symbol you see on the back of Ambulances and hospitals of the two snakes spiraling around a Wand with wings on the top. This is called a Caduceus and signifies healing where as in pagan traditions it signifies the raising of Kundalini energy in the body through the use of a wand. Many magical traditions such as Wicca, Druidry, even modern Wizards use Wands today in there Practices as a tool to focus the energies used to cause change to the world around them. Just remember, the wand is a useful tool, but the power resides in you.

Ive desided that with St. Patricks day around the corner I would share with you a fiew digital Photoes I took while I was in Ireland. I hope you like them.

Ireland Is one of the greatest places in the world. Once you go there you are shocked right when you get off the plane by how different everything is. The air, the people, the land, and the food. You also think you have gone back in time to like the 60's or something because they seem to be so behind in there style, architecture, and tastes. I seriously have major plans to one day move there.

The Irish Government is trying to boost there tourism as much as possible, and one way they are doing that is bringing in as much ART as possible. So if you register yourself as an artist when you move there they will give you total tax exemption and a TON of grants to get you started. So I’m going.

The only bad thing about Ireland is its car crash rates. there are more car crashes in ireland than in all of America. I found out why right when I got there. The roads are vary narrow and there are rock walls on both sides. The roads twist and turn over so many hills other cars just POP out at you. NO speed limits, (so everyone goes 60-75 down these narrow roads) and traffic lights are rarer than leprechauns. Oh, and not to mention the HUGE trucks that barrel down these roads. I was lucky to survive the trip.

So if you get the chance to go there I know you will have the time of your life, and may the luck of the Irish be with you.

I guess I am now a "Deviant" Thow I don't think that title sutes me as I am quite a nice person, or atleast I like to think so. But despite that I am glad to be here. This seems like a great plase to show off my work and find out what others think ot them. Right now I am a student at Florida School of the Arts, atending for my magor in Graphic Design. I can only wait and see where that is going to take me. I hope you like my work and love to you all. Thanks
