Are we loosing our freedom yet again??

I heard this report on the radio last night - I couldn't believe it!!
McCain proposing a bill to make supplements available only through doctor's perscription?
I am a supplement user and have been for a long time.  I believe that the best medicine is "preventive" medicine.  Supplements have helped in my health and well being so much over the years.  So much of people's ailments today, whether physical or mental, are due to vitamin deficiency.  Bi-polar difficulties, for example, are greatly due to a lack of vitamin B's.
This is yet again a product of greed.  A way to make more money off us, at the cost of our freedom to take care of our selves how we choose.
I actually am not big on the politics scene and don't normally get involved but this was upsetting...

Hi Kaia . NO POLITICS SCENE ISN'T MY BUSYNESS AS WELL .... BUT NEWS LIKE THIS ARE VERY CONCERNING .
IT SEEMS THAT MORE AND MORE THERE ARE PEOPLE TRYING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF US , USING OUR FREEDOM ( OR LACK OF IT ) AGAINST US .
BUT I BELIEVE THAT THIS PROPOSAL WON'T NEVER BECOME REALITY .

Pueblo pottery style gourd - from start to finish

Image
Finally completed "Earth Song", a carved and painted gourd done in the style of Pueblo pottery. This piece turned out better than I anticipated and I'm so excited! I took photos of the process so I will share with you here how I did it. After cleaning the gourd and cutting the top off to create the look of pottery, I drew in the design... Once I was satisfied with the drawing, I had to determine which parts I wanted to carve out.  Once this was decided it took me two days to complete the carving (not all day - 2 hours each day). I probably spent at this point 2 or 3 days trying to visualize a color scheme. I loved how it was coming along and I didn't want to mess it up with the wrong colors. I finally chose earth tones and painted on the first color... This was exciting - it was really starting to manifest a personality now...I was going to leave it basically with the natural gourd colors and others that saw it at this stage agreed but then

Butterfly Dreamtime

 " Butterfly Dreams" 6" x 6" acrylic on hardboard $50.00 available in my Etsy Shop Click Here Here is the latest completion. I have always felt a deep connection with Australian Aboriginal art and having a love for painting eye crossing detail, it's no wonder!:) On this piece, I was looking to meld the mandala art with a twist of Aboriginal. It didn't go at all as planned but I am pleased with the results. I think I want to try larger scale with this style.
