Personally, I blame it all on the Princess of Darkness (herein after referred to as PoD).  It really was PoD who *made* me delete my entire gallery (including 3 MC's!!) in October 2009, (plus my Wyvern's shelf) and start again.  *sigh*  Sometimes I just can't understand the inner workings of my Muse.

And, she does tolerate my occasional wandering off into faery land, with pretty faeries, and pastels and colours.  But deep down, I know she only really approves of my graphite works (especially if horned headwear is involved).

So of course, with the recreation of the gallery, PoD demanded "she" be top priority, numero uno, and as a loyal Minion, I of course acquiesced.

 


Interests
Drawing, gardening, millinery (making the sort of hats one wears to the horse races), cooking (I am an excellent cook). Writing of short stories, and even full length novels. Tarot cards, but not as a "reader", more interested in the subtle symbolism and the history. Though I do have a C&S character named Lexy, who is the Fortuner. Caring for animals through my job at the local Vet clinic. Travelling: I have been fortunate enough so far in life, to have travelled extensively, including the USA, UK, France, Austria, Spain, Hungary, Poland, Slovak Republic, Czech Republic, Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and New Zealand. I have spent quite some time working in Austria, Malaysia, Slovak Republic and Thailand. Planning to travel to Vanuatu (again) and Vietnam (1st time) in 2010. I reside currently in Canberra, the capital of Australia.
Favorite Fantasy/Scifi Movies and TV Shows
Not much of a TV watcher, nor movie goer (I just can't sit still for that long). I am proud to say I have never seen a LoTR installment, nor HP - ugh! Nor read the books - double ugh!
Favorite Fantasy/Scifi Books
Recently read: the latest from Terry Pratchett, Unseen Academicals - hilarious, and subtly witty. Currently reading: the latest from Bernard Cornwell, The Burning Land - ah, I so love the adventures of his Viking hero Uhtred
Favorite Music
Hard to go past the 80's for some really great music - disco, pop, punk, ska, new romantic, thrash, glam. (I even have a USB turntable, so I can play my old LP records). Unlike many, I don't listen to music while I draw, I prefer to let whatever current song play in my head, and just enjoy the quietness.

Oh! That could be it! Messed thing up though! LOL

:-) MaXine piX Kenseley replies: "ah yes, any comments over the last two hours, if you where having a running conversation, would be all mixed up together.

Can’t decide if Elfwood is GMT, or CET (Central European Time) - but either way, that is why there were two 2am’s 2"

"Spring" cleaning... I can understand the need for a fresh start but spring couldn’t be further away as it is right now. Is it you or me who’s living in the upside-down-land? 14 I realise I’ve been rather quiet with uploads and happenings myself. I took a bit of a break in october but I’m slowly finding my way back again.

:-) MaXine piX Kenseley replies: "ha - you are the one living in upside-down land... as I am at least 10 hours ahead 14

In other news, even with my complete deletion, and recreation, I *still* had mod access, so *sigh*, I have become a mod again, but just for Wyv’s and Support. Given that it seemed "Elfwood" really, really did not want me to leave 12"
25 Oct 2009:-) Yoni Danziger
Lol Spring Madness more like it 14

They won’t admit it, but EW was in chaos while you were gone 17 bah!

As long as you’re here everything is A OK 1

edit: you’re toooo slow Maxine 14 I want to see the new icon, profile pic, your witty notions in the profile intro and of course the new and improved PoD!
Now before you say anything, just remember this: Patience is NOT a virtue!

:-) MaXine piX Kenseley replies: "Yoni, Yoni, Yoni - nag, nag, nagging me!

I seem to be having problems creating a new icon... just can’t figure it out at the moment.... hmmmm....

New profile pic... need to get that camera out, so you can see my spanky new haircut.

PoD is coming along nicely, just been a bit busy last couple of days.... will do some work on her this evening.

And oh, one of the other reasons I completely deleted my account, was that no matter what, I still had Mod access to everything. So after re-creation, it seemed to fix the problem, then two days later *bang*, I had full access again. Soooo, seeing as EW seems very, very reluctnant to let me go, I have become a mod (again), but just for Wyv’s and Support (still sticking to my principles).

Patience not a virtue?? It is you know, along with Chastity, Temperance, Charity, Diligence, Kindness and Humility 14"
28 Oct 2009:-) Louise Lindgren
Only nine my dear, only nine 14
That’s weird EW still giving you mod access. You’d think with a new profile and everything the system wouldn’t recognise you anymore. On the other hand you still have the same internet adress as before. (http://maxine.elfwood.com) Maybe that’s one of the reasons PoD and her human host got dragged back to being a mod?

23 MaXine piX Kenseley replies: "Alas dear Louise, you are completely mistaken... it is indeed a good ten hours difference - hehe, blame the various State Government’s (Eastern states, but curiously not Queensland - who lag behind in the dark ages). Yes, daylight savings came in 4 weeks early this year, I am very much in the future..... *chortles heartily, but not muchly so.

oooh.... clicked something accidentally, and a whole bunch of piccies came up.... hmmm.... chooses "
28 Oct 2009:-) Panu Hakkarainen
No no MaXine it is you who walk upside down. And as there are two of us (me and Louise) confirming this -> it must be a fact. 12 Hehe!

But be it either way I hope you will have nice and sunny spring there. We will endure our grey, wet, dark and rainy autumn.

23 MaXine piX Kenseley replies: "ten hours... ten hours... does the ten hours dance. Hey - we went into daylight savings 4 weeks early... so ten hours ten hours.... *I am living in your future* *mwahahahaha* mmmmm.... I think the time thief has something to answer for"
1 Nov 2009:-) Yoni Danziger
Oooh! An Hellhound for an icon! Looks great! 1 And a new profile pic! The camera looks great! 14 How’s the new and improved PoD coming along?

Btw, my sister opened an account here, and she really got mad at me because YOU deleted your profile! It’s not my fault... 22 Anyway, I told her great things about you and the others... phhh 9 Now it’s both me and my sister without patience 12 lol 1


47 MaXine piX Kenseley replies: "No, not really a hell hound - just one of the ones that one may choose. *sigh* I don’t know why the smiley painter is not working for me.... perhaps it is to do with not yet being published?? meh?? idk?

New and improved version of PoD is in the Q (for 4 days now)

How lovely that you also have a talented sister that will be here on EW. I am still to redo all of my "favourites" so that I hopefully receive the EW email notification *nudge nudge* you will have to fave me again to receive so also.

I will, in the next day or two, re-tag all that I must re-tag with regards to notifications - and you must me also... *hint hint* again

Oh, was that me repeating mys-elf? - hehehhe

You scared the hell out of me, ya know! I went to check out "favorites" and low and behold, you weren’t there. I did the big search, kinda figured out what was going on an then I had to wait! Me! I had to wait! I hate waiting, I have no patience!
Glad you’re back Maxine. The name change sort of threw me there. I was thinking on the bad side of it.
Now I do expect you to replace ’all’ of the comments I lost when you deleted yours’elf’. And I expect you to come see me ’otherworks’ page. Right now actually! Have a great day.
Oh yeah, you might be 10 hrs ahead of Louise and Pani, but you happen to 15 hrs ahead of me.

:-) MaXine piX Kenseley replies: "Am still here 2 Just a Spring clean... needed some fresh air. The name change is nothing sinister, just using my "married" name for a change.

Swung by your OW gallery, and left some comments 1"
2 Nov 2009:-) Yoni Danziger
I see... Well it’s still a hellhound for me 14

My sister is very talented but she’s no artist or writer... Well, she’s sort of a writer, she’s a Scripter for cinema and theater 1 and as she specifically told me, she’s here to observe and comment!

Of course I’ll bloody tag you Maxine! But unlike Louise and MT I’d rather wait till you have at least one piece in your gallery, otherwise, people (who don’t already know you) will enter your profile and see nothing... that’s why I’m waiting. But speaking of which, you on the other hand don’t have to wait 14 Feel free to tag all my pieces (including those that have no relations to you), preferred in an alphabetical order, and then tag me! YEY!! lol 1


23 MaXine piX Kenseley replies: "I think it is supposed to be daemonic cat... but yes, I can see HellHound too 2 (and I still can’t get that damned smiley painter to work!)

What is your sisters UID, so I can pop around and say hi.

I have five pics in the queue, but they have been locked for seven days now *grumbles about trainee moderators taking their time*

I tagged you as fave, will tag a few art pieces too 1"
5 Nov 2009:-) MT Starkey
Thanks a lot for the fave. What’s been happening in the capital?

23 MaXine piX Kenseley replies: "Well, the Greens are pushing for a review of the Cotter Dam expansion cost blowout, the Treasurer Wayne Swan is looking at targetting Superannuation taxes and the Hoodoo Guru’s have cancelled their gig tonight at the Southern Cross Club, with no explanation.... so, not much 12

Was in Melbourne last w/e for Derby Day... had fun, but lost on the ponies 8

Have to come back down to Melbourne next week again, but for a funeral 8 (I was wondering why my friend wasn’t at Derby Day, and wasn’t answering his phone.... I found out why on Wednesday)

As for this weekend, going to The Deck at Regatta Point, for an ATO party tonight (Martin is currently contracting on a project there). And tomorrow night, a farewell dinner for one of the vet nurses at the Ginseng restaurant"

Hey Maxine.

Thanks for your helpful tips with my Pics. I might delete a few and put them on slowly over a period of time. As for the HTML code, I couldn’t figure out how to get rid of it. But I will have another go.

Chris, AKA Taipan

:-) MaXine piX Kenseley replies: "My pleasure Chris 2

p.s. I should have some new pics in my gallery.... as soon as they get modded - hopefully some time soon 1"
