With an overflow of new projects, I thought it would be appropriate that I start documenting via blog-style. Ever since my seasonal job at tiny*prints ended, my relationship with paper hasn't . In fact, it has actually become quite an ambush, as if the paper industry is purposely trying to haunt me. Of course, I enjoy it. I'm currently in an awkward stage of limbo, and thus freaking bored with my life. I graduated from college last May and am now waiting upon graduate school admissions this coming March (no, I am not pursuing graphic design).

Anyway, many more posts to come about my current shindigs!

Why thumbs? Because they're the most important appendage of the hand, duh. Without thumbs, we wouldn't be able to hold a pencil, grab an apple, turn a doorknob...you get the idea. Thumbs allow us to properly function, and just make life so much easier. We really take thumbs for granted!

Oddly enough, God endowed me with clubbed thumbs (scientific term: brachydactyly). Meaning... they're short. and wide. and a bit chubby. Throughout my life, I've always gotten crap about my thumbs. I've heard it all...from toe thumbs to stubby thumbs. The most creative name of all came from my 7th grade keyboarding class: gnome thumbs. I never really considered my thumbs to be beautiful (I still don't), but they're unique and I've decided that I should embrace them.

Palmists believe that clubbed thumbs show an inclination to the arts and a wild and hot-tempered spirit. Interesting, yes? Meh, palmists are full of crap anyway.

So here it is: Whimsical Thumb. Let the designing begin!
