It's June already! That's exciting for 3 reasons, 1 it's my BIRTHDAY on the 12th, 2 NEW SET on the 20th and 3 I'm getting my leg tattoo finished!!!

I had another session last month and finished my bear but then I added flowers.. it's never ending, feels like I'm collecting a little forest on my thigh, doesn't bother me though other than the wait.




One of my favourites had her birthday yesterday. Good times. I've kind of been in a slump lately but I've decided life is too bloody short for any of that so I went out and was awesome..



She had the most amazing birthday cake which gave birth to BABY panda's, pretty exciting, that just reminded me that I dreamt I was a game ranger and was feeding all the baby animals polystyrene like a nut job, probably an indication of my looking after skills. Been having some wildly detailed dreams lately, I love it, last night I was in this moss filled green jungle on a cliff overhanging a lake and I had to jump off it in order to have an adventure, it makes me happy that it could be real and was real for how ever many seconds in my head.




Anyway I've been trying hard to find excuses to be dressed up, turns out it's easier than I thought, went as a mermaid to work last week, so much glitter I was visible from space!



So as you know City of Gold will be coming down soon so this is a last warning if anyone wants to save some photo's, I will put a folder up with a few of my favourites

I leave you with this sneaky sneaky photo someone took of me..


Until next time
Love Lunar

This cat has pretty much made my life, I feel the need to share it with the Universe!

The Great Gatsby comes out here this Friday! I can't wait, I loved the book and Baz Luhrmann is just killer with tragic romances, him and Leonardo Di Caprio can do no wrong in my eyes, I have a feeling the soundtrack is going to be pretty epic. Has anyone seen it yet? So psyched that Suicide Girls featured a picture of mine on Facebook from my set L'odalisque with regards to it It's a great compliment.



Anyway, since I have a new set coming in June I've decided to take City Of Gold down soon.


That's all for today

Love Lunar

Coming soon..

I feel the world is experiencing a severe case of archive fever, as I become more amongst social media, I'm increasingly aware of how humans seem to have a burning desire to preserve in some way, their memories. I found this blog which has had the energy and drive to succinctly sum up what I am trying to describe. The notion of archive fever is Derridean concept I first came aware of whilst studying and it's always fascinated me.

This blog is quite a beautiful example of the need for archive. The writer had written it pre-death and posted post-death, it's really touching to read.

The internet is a pretty glorious place where you can find things of wonderful meaning or you can just look at a picture of a lamb puking..



Well SG land, that's all from my brain at the moment, sorry for the quiet spell, I will try find myself on here more often and I will go to gym and paint a picture and bake a cake. K Bye.

Tattoo-a-thon is OVER! Holy shit-balls, the build up and then the day itself were utter chaos BUT outcome: SUCCESS! Raised a lot of money and me and the other apprentice now have a room where we can tattoo.

We got to customise our space, decided since it would be home to only female tattooists that it would be fitting to write 'bleed for me' on the wall, it makes me giggle so hard every time I see it. So I spent the week working/painting/stressing and have mastered the art of multi-tasking while listening to Fleetwood Mac a little bit too much, might need an intervention with my iPod...





The previous weekend I got my Mexican on hardcore which involved looking dead sexy with a beard.. (my moustache was so soft it was like having a baby cat glued to my face)

Anyway, I got a welcome break this weekend, after my cluster fuckery of a week I headed to White River early Saturday morning, it's a little town just outside the Kruger. I love being away from Joburg temporarily. Helps put things here at ease. I got to see a leppie mom feeding her babies which was pretty special now I'm home and my cats are sitting on my face as usual. Calm.

I've been entirely immersed in tattoo-land at the moment. The more I am actually tattooing the less time I have for anything other than nightly kitten cuddles. It's wonderful. I love being busy.

A client snapped this sneaky shot of me while I was working on his leg. This is full Lunar concentration mode 5000.



The shop is participating in an event next week for CHOC kids, we did it last year too. It's a pretty cool fundraising initiative and I'm pretty psyched to be a part of it.

I have recently had the pleasure of tattooing some of the lovely SA SG's, Kohana, Jeckyl and last week Hadess. Unfortunately as part of my contract I'm not allowed to put up pictures but I'm really grateful to have had their skin donated for me to practice on! Big love!

That's all for now. Here are my boobs

There are certain inexplicable things that never fail to make my heart beat faster. Beautiful art, a particular way a sentence is strung together and a song, the kind of song I want to spend all day playing on repeat. These things come along often and I'm always astounded at the excitement they bring.

The music that is doing that to me at the moment is Thomas Feiner and Anwhen, All that Numbs You, the combination of that line and his voice are just too lovely.



I had a dream I was a unicorn human hybrid, white horse legs and a human torso with a perfectly fitting horn. Woke up a little sad that it was all in my head, things seemed quite simple being a magical made-up creature.

I've been enjoying Kent Williams's artwork at the moment, I love the way he handles skin.



As far as real life is concerned I've gone back to pole dancing, I had forgotten why I loved it but I remember now.



I got more work done on my tattoo, decided I wanted full colour.


Had probably the best Valentines of my life with my sister, talamia, Tarion, Kohana and a couple of other people. We went to 'Ed's Diner' which is a restaurant in total retro 50's American diner style, everything was 'in character' from the decor to the music and menu. We all had to bring a secret Santa Valentine gift bought from a porn shop. Was pretty darn hilarious. I got a latex spanking skirt from my lady Tarion haha






Alright, that's all for tonight, I'm off to dream about unicorns and seals and white sanded beaches where only wonderful things can happen xx

Hello Kittens! Thank you for the love on my set "City of Gold" as usual I am grateful and humbled, I still blush when I see what you have written.

I dug up some of my university art work and found this:



It says "If you don't have a sense of humour get the fuck out of my house" I was glad to find it, its particularly relevant to the place I am right now. When I think back on this past year and all that has happened I know keeping a sense of humour has kept me light when things were almost inevitably dark. I decided the other day to write a blog, I'm still unsure of it but maybe I will share it in the future. It's a dark comedy of all the things that have happened leading up until now. I think there is a lot to be said for finding the funny in even the most dire of situations.

I went to the Red Hot Chilli Peppers a while back and LOOK who I found!!!!!

Pyke!!!! She is just the loveliest creature inside and out and happens to have a sextastic set 'Bittersweet' in member review. So much love for her!


Look at my Fugly friends! haha


As for the concert, I wasn't the hugest fan but I tried to get into it. The first song started and I swear to God I had never heard it in my life. All my friends were going wild so I attempted to sing along so I wasn't a party pooper. Eventually I looked at my sister with a blank face and she said "Do hand actions when you fake sing, makes it more believable" #samepersondifferentbody

I got to see my lady Tarion and Pyke again on Saturday neither of which will ever stop being a treat for me! Got our dress up on, I was Hello Kitty, Tarion with her awesome green hair (Oh I wonder who did that for her? ) was Ramona Flowers






I'll love and leave you with a photo of Frank the moron dog, she got her head stuck in a tub of yoghurt yesterday, greedy thing. (and I'm not being mean, I freed her several times and she kept insisting on shoving it back in there)

I have pug panties! Pug Life level 5000!! I'm letting this blog just be a mind-dump because I feel like I need it

My friend has just adopted a rescue pug called Molly, we went to visit her the other day and she is just a delight.


My Frank has taken to falling asleep in my arms, she's changed so much since we first got her, she's not scared anymore she's a bossy bra-eating sweet heart.


I'm trying to fill this year with new experiences, I played laser tag this weekend with Tarion and it was the most fun I have had in a while. I think the ability not to take yourself very seriously is important. We lost horribly to a bunch of children but it was cool to do something different.




Anyway I watched the documentary When We Were Kings about the famous fight in Africa between George Foreman and Mohammed Ali. I'm not sure why since I'm not really 'amongst' boxing but it was completely fascinating and launched me into an obsession with Mohammed Ali. He was the most arrogant, unapologetic man but it seemed to work in his favour, I've been reading some things he said and it's hilarious. These were my favourites:

"I am the greatest, I said that even before I knew I was."
"If you even dream of beating me you’d better wake up and apologise."
"It’s hard to be humble, when you’re as great as I am."

I don't know what triggers memory or why, it's such a strange concept that some things even in the short term can be disregarded from your head but other events for not particular reason remain with you. I was doing aerobics today with this crazy man who terrifies you into trying your best while sweating to chipmunked versions of Ricky Martin and Bonny Tyler when I remembered an event from many years back, I have no idea why it came to me but it amused me so I'm going to share it.

At my great grandmothers funeral an old man - I mean close to 90- came up to me. I thought he was going to offer me his condolences but he said "if I was 20 years younger I would take you to bed" It was one of the most ridiculous things anyone has ever said to me and it still makes me giggle.

The last thing that's been going through my mind that I want to share is this poem by E.E Cummings, I found it the other day and it speaks to me:

I like my body when it is with your
body. It is so quite new a thing.
Muscles better and nerves more.
i like your body. i like what it does,
i like its hows. i like to feel the spine
of your body and its bones, and the trembling
-firm-smooth ness and which i will
again and again and again
kiss, i like kissing this and that of you,
i like, slowly stroking the, shocking fuzz
of your electric fur, and what-is-it comes
over parting flesh … And eyes big love-crumbs,

and possibly i like the thrill

of under me you so quite new

Good night
