YOU CAN'T JUST GO AROUND STABBING PEOPLE!
How shocked am I to have gotten a text this morning at 7am, telling me that one of my employees had been stabbed SIX times and was in emergency surgery, I was downright dumbfounded! What most of my readers do not know is that aside from being an author/artist, i run a full service restaurant and bar, called The Smoky Mermaid in Belize. My position is Executive Director so I deal with a lot at work, and especially staffing, I have about 24 to 36 employees at a time, depending on the season, slow verses high.
This morning i was told that one of my female employees, a hostess, was on her way home and was bombarded by another woman who stabber her SIX times. I can not imagine how or why someone would jeopardize their future this way. Especially since this was no random stabbing, it was over a man, A MAN, get real ladies, because NO MAN is worth your sitting in jail for an attempted murder charge.
Thank God the young lady, thus far, has survived, but it is very clear that it was an attempt to murder her. The gist of it is that the young lady was sleeping with the other woman's boyfriend. both these women have small children and both these women work at reputable establishments, so why the hell risk EVERYTHING over a man????
Can someone please tell me??? because I sure is hell don't get it. You can not just go around stabbing people... Why?? the rage, the fury, the fire, and WHY target the other woman, is this not the man's fault as well??? What the hell is the world coming to???

WHERE HAS TIME GONE, 2008 IS ALMOST DONE!
The time just seems to be passing us by so fast - Every minute of every hour of every day of every month of every year just seems to be going so fast!!! I can not believe that we are already nearing September, the Belize September Celebrations are literally right around the corner, and after that it will be October/November (which will fly right by) and then December, how is is possible that this whole entire year has just gone by so quickly, it seems like just yesterday we were in January - Damn, I'm bugging!!!!!AS AN ARTIST...
As an artist, I find it necessary to be inventive, self expressive, searching, daring, and even disturbing; and in doing so, I am hoping to enlighten others and open ways for a better understanding of my art.
I am fascinated by the variety, complexity, beauty, and seduction of abstract art and have always been intrigued by surrealism.
My work is based on abstract (not to be mistaken for non-objective art) and is a translation of a real life experience, a thought and/or a dream,
and is a complete exaggeration of my perception of reality. It can create a new feeling, vision, or experience that exists outside of the rules of realism.
WRITERS BLOCK
Have you ever had writers block, painters block, any kind of block. Often time we artists go through that, a state of mind that is just a blur, blank, empty. And it almost always seems that Writers Block 'strikes' when we need our creativity the most. I feel as if I am about to explode with writers block. In four months my Art exhibit, IMPULSE, and the launching of my second book, ARTIST CONFESSIONS, is taking place and I feel as if I may not be ready for the event. It has been months since I've painted and there is no way I am going to launch a book less a show. I have been trying to get my Artist Mojo back but nothing seems to be working. At least i have the tube, at least there I can still use my creativity! The video that I have posted on Writers Block is supposed to show my present state of mind, I hope you all enjoy. Bless..

MEN THINK WITH THEIR DICKS!
Men think with their Dicks!!!Okie dokie kids, this was the Poem that started it all... This is where THE PENIS CHRONICLES BEGIN... A while back i posted a video of my Spoken Word Poetry, just as I always do, on the tube... But this one seemed to have got a few, shall I call them, LOSERS, quite riled up!! They took the embedding link and posted my video on an anti-feminism website, and on top of that they started this thread bashing my Poem and calling me a feminist, which i must say was quite a shocker! Anyway, what's a girl to do, but to rebuttal and start a trendy lil play list, right (wink wink, nod nod). Blessings to you all, and enjoy the poem below... Proshka
THE SEVEN PROSHKA ART COLLECTIONS
HER DIGITALLY ENHANCED PHOTOGRAPHY SERIES
This is a series in which I utilize my digital photography and manipulate the images. I use different programs, spending hours at a time testing/teasing/taunting the images so as to distort/enhance/manipulate them. I often change the colors of the original image completely, by adding bright hues into the images, and at often times changing the entire image from its original form…
HER ABSTRACT LINEAR LAYERING COLLECTION
Abstract Linear Layering, is a collection of paintings, composed and created by applying layer upon layer upon layer upon layer and, yes, even more layers of paint. This is a very time consuming process as drying time is involved. Each layer must be done separately, and must be completely dry before I can add another layer. The linear movements in and on the paintings are precise, sharp, and clear, it is a very organized process.
HER BODY DISMORPHIC COLLECTION
This is a collection of paintings based entirely on my perception of the human form and in retrospect, myself. It is my twisted and ‘dismorphic’ view of what human bodies look like – many times with enormous legs/ stomachs/breasts/hair and in most cases, with ribs protruding out of their form. Human ribs are quite a common thing In my works/these pieces/this art Of mine! I have several variations and most often utilize the female form to create my so called artistic masterpieces.
THE SERIES IN WHICH SHE CALLS TEARS
Tears is a collection of paintings that portrays true life tears, whether they are tears of joy/love/laughter/sorrow/hate/sadness - a death, a loss, a birth, a gain: it all depends on what your tears represent! The works all follow a very symmetrical base, If you look into the piece, You will see it/that/the symmetry – that is – along with the tears that accompany it/the artwork/the piece.
HER RED AND BLACK COLLECTION
In this collection I utilize two main colors, an obvious red and black. Red is the color of fire & blood; it symbolizes passion, power, and protection. Black is the color which has the least harmony of all colors. I combine the two to create my own balance on canvas. Most often times, I draw/paint/design a black female nude, (her shape/form/image)onto and into the red background. This collection is vigorous, forceful and dynamic, It represents strength and energy.
HER ART ON ART COLLECTION
In the Collection, “Art on Art”, I take and utilize (my) digitally enhanced and manipulated photographs and/or/and along with - graffiti tag ink drawings, pen and ink drawings, pencil and/or pastel drawings - and incorporate them into larger scale paintings. In this collection I utilize brush, palette and other artistic utensils to create artistic masterpieces.
THE EVOLUTION SERIES
I have always been an avid believer in evolution, various parts of evolution that is. In this collection I manipulate images of both botany and human anatomy and physiology, I relate images of each as to how they fit into everyday life. The similarities of the two are dauntingly impressive and I therefore utilize them accordingly. More often seeming surreal, these artistic works take time and detail, here I use the smallest of brushes and work with acrylics alone.
