Visiting Yosemite
At the beginning of October, I was FINALLY able to visit Yosemite! We had a great time and were able to creep up very close to a herd of deer and also encountered a bear (no picture, I didn’t want a bear to notice us!)! What a beautiful place!

Shaver Lake, California
Finally made it out of the house. Between not having a car, working too much, and then finally getting a car at the very beginning of COVID (still an ongoing crisis, obviously) I haven’t gotten out much. But we wanted to try to see the Neowise comet before it disappeared and in doing so, went…

New Photos, New Photos!
So, being the brilliant person I am, I managed to lose my sync cable for my Canon DSLR in our move. I have no idea where it is. And I haven’t been able to pick up a new one and it’s already been months and months. As a result, I’ve been “stuck” using my phone…

It’s Play Time!
Hello guys and ghouls! It’s the hostess with the mostest…! Oh, wait, no, this is me, Educated Savage. As much as I love Elvira, my impressions (and aspirations) just don’t stand up to the real thing. But that doesn’t diminish my horror at all or make it any less. I’ve been fretting off and on…

I Make Magic So People Can See What’s Already There
So, there’s this scene in The Last Unicorn where the Unicorn is captured by Mommy Fortuna and placed in Mommy’s Carnival of Wonders. In it, Mommy Fortuna has a lion that is magic’d to look like a Manticore, a monkey that’s magic’d to look like a ferocious beast, and a snake magic’d to look like…

I Am An Artist Revisited
{Flashback to Saturday, June 9th, 2012. You see, I’ve had EducatedSavage.com the website and blog since 2008 or thereabouts. Maybe earlier, maybe later. I’ve been Educated Savage for a really long time now. And I’ve tried being authoratative, confident, articulate, not-to-apologetic you-know-people-hate-that, sincere, authentic, informative, professional, and business-like. I don’t know what I’m supposed to…

Hello, beautiful people! It’s the holiday time! Are you ready? I know I’m not. Thanksgiving is this week, so the topic of Thankfulness has been on my mind quite a bit – and I bet it’s been on your mind, too. I just wanted to share some of the things that I’m thankful for. Here…
