Unfortunately, the young lady who was posting the work on this site under the name pocopiumosso, and who just getting ready to go to college, was killed by a (very) drunk driver on the morning of July 12, 2008. She would have turned 18 just about a month later. A facebook site has some info an an obituary ([link]).

She continued to do art, although nothing had been posted here in about a year. Her family will be putting some of it up on a website she was planning to build (www.hxresurrection.net - what is there as of Aug 08 is a placeholder and an obit). All of her work here and on the new site will be covered using one of the Creative Commons copyrights.

If any of you know where she might have posted additional works of art or poetry or writing, please let us know. You can post to this site and we will check it weekly or so.
