I send dedication to The People, my people...Lakhota/Siouxan and Apache grandfathers, grandmothers, brothers and sisters but also to ALL my Native American people and blood...we will not be forgotten, we shall live again! And a final dedication....Wallbase.org and Basehead.org in particular...to my family at my sister sites such as ArtNSkins and Skinbase. Without your love, help, support and encouragement, I wouldn't be doing this at all! I humbly thank all my family....in your honor, this gift of mine is for you! I also keep a promise to my mother, whom I recently lost to the cancer, to keep doing this and sharing....

About the author: 

Kitala Ceta, Sioux/Apache, daughter of Little Dog Woman (Sioux, Lakhotah, Comanche, Oglala....) and Spirit Wolf (Apache-Chiricahua, Comanche)...including the ancestors from other lands.

I've been a long time admirer and down loader of quite a few authors for a number of years now. Always having a creative side of my own, I would get ideas about how I would have done this or that, or even notions of things I would have liked to do myself. I did not, however, have the means or know where to go, much less know where to start looking, despite asking the spirits of my ancestors for guidance.

In May, 2008, I decided to become a member of Basehead.org. Infatuated with the works I saw on display there, I felt compelled to participate in rating and comments, but had to register. In all of that, I hit it off with authors Sed and Jazzilady, whom are responsible for pointing me in the right direction for programs, encouragement, and the guts to create and submit my own wallpapers. After a few months with them, I was referred to Wallbase.org, where I'm not only a member, but am also an Approver and help maintain the owner's, Exorz/Tricky, site. Because of his entrust to me and his willingness to make me a big part of things at Wallbase, I felt I had a 'home' and 'family'. In between these, I am also a member with ArtNSkins.net and still have associations with Skinbase.org and Skinartistry.com. Just about everyone at any of these sites are the most encouraging and open-armed group of people you could ever meet, but I'll be honest in saying that Wallbase has my heart!

Since then, I've dabbled with some of everything, as you'll see in my wallpapers. Abstract, Fractal, 3D, Photos, etc.....and through several different programs....and counting! Tools of the Trade include several Apophysis programs, Fractal Explorer, and Bryce. But I also use ArtWeaver, Mind Boggling Fractals, Terragen, GIMP, Merge, and PaintDotNet. I'm interested in others, so the list may get longer. As a wall creating monster, I now find myself exceeding the number of allowable uploads at my sister sites, which is why I created this site. This way all can keep up with my latest creations.

Well, thank you for taking time out to get to know a little about me. As I said, I will be continuing to update and change things here until I get to the point where I'm just uploading works. So keep visiting me! I will soon be adding a page for free downloads of the programs I use and even adding more Native American recipes, poetry and quotes pages of my ancestors and Native American brothers and sisters.

Thanks, again, for taking the time out to visit my site and for your support! Muah!!!
