I used to think I was so special because I was a “graffiti writer”…
As I got older and saw one of the most important people in my life leave this earth, I realized that I was just another person in this rat race called life.
But if you play your cards right, you might still find some kind of happiness in this fleeting world…
Here are some of my graffiti photos and drawings, enjoy.

Today would’ve been my mom’s 76th birthday (April 10, 1950). As of this year, she’s been gone for 20 years now. This photo was taken in the Philippines, I was 4 years old.
She was an Aries and loved music and action movies, the violent kind. She was also a piano teacher. Her independent, creative and fiery spirit is what brought me to California. Here is a song that is stuck in my head right now that reminds me of her – Sealed with a Kiss by Bobby Vinton
I was the rebellious daughter who tried to be good but didn’t always listen. I had my own independent, creative and fiery spirit and had to follow my own artistic path. Thank you for allowing me to become who I am, even though you didn’t always agree. I love and respect you, most of all I miss you.
This video was filmed 13 years ago – the year was 2011, when I was still painting graffiti. I was pretty chunky too, haha. I like how my piece came out btw. Oh and the comments are funny now that I look back at it; I actually avoided reading them for a long time because feelings or whatever or even watching the video because of my weight. Of course most guys always have something gross to say.
Time is so wild.
Painted with WINK and Angel179 for Art Primo.
While driving to work I was holding this Garnet Soapstone (available for purchase) in the photo and got a surge of energy flow through me and my eyes welled up a little…I thought about blood, bloodshed and sacrifice.
In my mind’s eye I got a flash of witches being accused and persecuted. Perhaps these were just mental pictures from witch-related movies I’ve seen, I wasn’t sure. But it was enough to make me feel something and to write this down.
Anyways.
In terms of sacrifice, often times we think about veterans who were in the war, but what about the thousands of innocent witches, healers who were burned at the stakes…
What about the countless women who were raped past, present and future…
It was brought to my awareness recently that James Marion Sims, the father of modern Gynecology, owned black slave women and cut them up without anesthesia in order to study and learn about our reproductive organs.
The history of mankind is gruesome and it was the women who usually suffered the most.
They all sacrificed themselves to have what we have today.
All these women live through me and they exist as little druzy sparkles in this Garnet Soapstone. Garnet is all about strength and security. I am you, you are me, we are One. Now whenever I look at Almandine Garnets I will always think about all the blood that has been shed and seeped through the earth to create such a beautiful stone.
I cursed myself often, often wishing I was a man instead. They always seemed to get away with doing things. It took some time to love my body and accept myself as a woman.
I used to be angry that my period would inconvenience me, it’s actually happening right now and I think it’s perfect for writing this post.❤️
All I’ve been wanting to do lately is just doodle sacred geometry shapes and symbols. I wanted to draw this while at work today but alas I was on a deadline. And then I made a gif out of it a day later.
I feel as if something is being activated in me but I’m not sure what it is. I read something online recently about the light body – that it is activated in levels.
I’m drawn to merkaba, pyramid, sri yantra, stars, eyes and infinity symbols. I’ve been drawing them a lot repetitively, I also want them tattooed on me.???????
Been reading about the Lemurians, Atlanteans, the Pleiadeans; my psychic friend told me in the beginning of January 2018 that I was Lemurian/Atlantean in a past life…which in a way makes total sense that I’m drawn to Lemurian crystals and was able to sell them successfully, or is it only because most everyone in the crystal world reveres them? Hard to tell but I’m learning to trust that what I feel is true for me.
Speaking of past lives, I’m really into the subject but still have no clue who I was in the past. I guess it doesn’t matter so much unless it’s affecting my current lifetime in a negative way.
All I know is I don’t know where I’m going anymore. I’m definitely IN the spiral and I can’t relate to most people these days unless we’re into the same stuff.
I’m lost and I don’t want to be found. There is so much to learn about the past, present, future and other dimensions.
It’s officially been a year since I started Metaphysical Vibes. I applied for a business license & seller’s permit around this time in April 2017 and opened to the public on Earth Day, April 22nd. What an interesting exercise in manifestation this has been, I don’t know what’s next as I’m learning so much about myself and haven’t been spending money on the business as I spent a lot last year, so I’m paying down my debt. I’m taking an 8 week course in Trans Crystal Therapy at The Crystal Matrix – learning and working with the stones and their associated chakras, scanning the body with pendulums and Quartz crystals, becoming more aware of our auras, etc. I love my teacher and the people I’m taking the course with. I’m definitely growing and transforming, into what I have yet to discover. The Death card appeared this week, as did The Fool.
Open mind, open heart. Stay curious as there is so much more to it than just the physical world. Peace, love and blessings if you are reading this.✨❤✨
So I decided over the weekend to put up my old website and it’s domain, shermgrafik.com back online.
It will serve as an archive of my old work. And if I am attempting to do the art thing yet again, then it’s important for people to understand my background.
The site was redirecting to Save the Savages, but decided to make them separate.
What is the reason for this? I believe that if I did have an audience, they wouldn’t like every part of me jumbled together into one, confusing mass…
so even though we are one and the same individual – I am creating the illusion of separateness.
Our human brains like to categorize things, and so does the internet.
So those who like my old graffiti & art stuff can go over there. Those who like the stuff I do now can stay here.
Wed 10/28/26 – Scorpio season has me in a more negative, brooding mood…I don’t like it. I want to be delulu for once but those days are over…10 of Swords vibe. Having so much knowledge can become a burden.
+ On some more exciting thoughts (at least to me) – the real flex in Astrology is synastry – how your birthchart interacts with someone else’s birthchart. It’s really fascinating to me how a person can influence someone else and vice versa.
+ Oh and just a friendly reminder, if you’re not being authentic with me – mind, body, soul – I have no problem blocking you over and over again. You think you’re clever, but you’re not. You want to take and take but can only give a false image of yourself. You’re not going to get what you want from me or anyone you want to get close to if you’re not being authentic. Just saying.
Like, how can you expect people to be real with you if you can’t be real with them; it goes both ways, remember? You’re the one who told me that.
====================
Sun 10/25/26 – A lesson is repeated until it is learned. I guess I haven’t learned my lesson and fell for it again. That’s why The Devil tarot card keeps showing up, isn’t it? Venus in Scorpio retrograde. It felt good in that moment, but afterwards…you felt used yet again didn’t you…and they still wanted more. The person kept on demanding for more, but couldn’t give anything in return as usual (Saturn in Cancer in the 8th house – they won’t show me their body or voice even though I gave them so many videos of myself) – just their Plutonic power of “take as much as I can get out of her and control”. Sigh, I really am the stupid one.
I want to tell myself never again but every time I say that, The Wheel of Fortune spins me right back into the karmic wheel.
I know I’m just a kink dispenser to this person and nothing more. I want to get away from them as far as possible, but they’re everywhere online now. Always watching me. I can’t escape. And I know they’re going to read this. And I know they’re going to contact me again in one form or another.
====================
Tue 9/29/26 – Today I allowed myself to enjoy my most secret pleasure. Even now as I type this I feel completely detached, elated and content that my latest interaction with this person felt so intense yet so balanced – I gave to him and he gave to me. It feels like our mutual attraction to each other got elevated; I got mindfucked with physical results, it was really amazing.
====================
Sun 9/27/26 – Disclaimer: this may or may not be true but for me it is. They say that in a karmic connection in astrology, there is a deeper reason why a person continues to chase someone beyond just attraction & connection. Perhaps a debt is owed to that person in a past life, where someone died before they could be together. And so that person who died finds that person that they loved in this current life and now has an unexplainable need to have closure with that person they never got to be with. The closest movie that kind of shows this is Bram Stoker’s Dracula – right on time for Venus in Scorpio retrograde; it’s quite erotic.
The debt is paid on my part, it took 3 plus years to pay it off. In case you’re wondering if you owe me anything, you don’t. We are both free now, so let me go and live your life ok? I’ll always love you weirdo but the astrology says we can never be together.
====================
8/22/26 – When a person you care about consistently disappoints you, eventually you lose your attraction to them. This time, I really hope it’s for good. Thank you for showing me again your true self – the person who only uses people to get what they want then turns around and insults them. I wish you well in life, I really do. Just get your toxic, lame, ugly energy far, far away from me.
A person who tricks you into taking them back to extract the sexual energy that made them feel good then turns around and insults you is an addict and a demon. They don’t love you, they just want to use you. Protect yourself from these energy vampires.
