Update 09/2008: I’m now an artist and inventor. I’ve been selling my paintings and sculptures. I haven’t sold any inventions yet, but they may be too cutting edge/odd/dangerous/useless (like my coffee-maker-hot-tub…). I currently work for myself and am enjoying my increased artistic productivity.
Previously 09/2006: I’m an artist. My goal is to transition into working/selling artist by October 2007. Over the next year I’m going to learn how to paint more productively, how to apply for “Call for Entries”, and how to sell art at “Arts and Craft” shows.
I currently work as a paper-pusher for a bureaucratic institution and where I dream of escaping to pursue my artistic passions.

Hi Nyssa,
I typed my name into a google search engine and besides the character from doctor who, which i was named after, your web site was the only one of intrest. I won’t profess that like you i am an atrist to try an establish some connection beyond our name, but i do have a curiosity as to where you come from and what you are about beside’s your art. I live in Australia. I’m 20 years old and asspire to everything and nothing. I crave a connestion with something and thought you might be able to shed some un-objective light. If you don’t wish to respond no hard feelings will be felt. I have included my e-mail. Health and happiness to you Nyssa

Hi my daughter’s name is Nyssa (after the Dr. Who character), however I have since learned that it means “woman”.
For all that have ever posted on this site, Nyssa is an amazing name to belong to. To me, it is not a name that I was born with, but it is a name, that along my life path, that I chose. Nyssa has alot of meaning, and anyone granted with this gracious, beautiful name should see it as a blessing.
Nyssa in greek mythology was one of the water nymphs that nursed the greek god Dionysis back to health.
Nyssa is also a butterfly.
Nyssa is also a water loving tree.
If research this name hard enough you will find that there is alot of meaning behind it.
