Bowtruckled (Shelley Marie)

My name is Shelley. I live where it's cold for most of the year, but I am surrounded by immense beauty. Nature is my inspiration for many areas of my life. I am an artist and enjoy drawing, painting, doodling.. but watercolor is my favourite. I am also a musician (piano, oboe, bassoon) and enjoy a variety of music. I am a university student studying Psychology. But I am also learning Japanese on the side. I adore birds. I have a dog who is (old) my best friend. He helped me get through a major depressive episode a few years ago, continues to pull me through my bad days, and I regard him as my guardian angel. (His breed is unknown but he basically looks like an arctic wolf). I believe in God and in powers within the world that we have no control over. I also believe in the freedom to express oneself - hence my artistic expressions. Feel free to visit my deviantART page to see what art/photography I've been up to.
Please comment on my poems! Good or bad - I want to hear them all. Thanks,
-Shelley
