My Bio
I'm old, yes, that's right. I'm 34 and there are lots of teenagers that draw far better than I do. It's just that it's been more a hobby to me than anything else. I wanted to be a cartoonist at one time and all I drew was anthro animals, mostly cats. I became fascinated by anime long before the recent explosion, and have been inching toward drawing my own style ever since. I'm really more a writer and a jewelry designer. I guess this is the place I put a random list of my likes and dislikes and various random tidbits.

*I have a mild case of spastic cerebal palsy that mostly affects my legs. Sometimes I find it quite hard to walk. It also makes me somewhat heavy-handed.
*I'm addicted to caffiene, in soda form. I don't like coffee much. Nor do I enjoy eating leaves (aka salad). As a result, I'm kind of a junk food junkie. This means I'm pretty heavyset, to be honest.
*I love cats of all kinds, wild and domestic, wolves, and . . . unicorns. Hey, quit laughing, you!
*I love vampires and werewolves, but I cannot stand Twilight, sorry, kids. Every day I'm inundated with it from all sides (my family). Give me Christopher Lee's Dracula, 30 days of Night, The new Wolf Man, or, if I want vampires and werewolves that aren't so vicious, Moonlight or Being Human.
*I'm a proud Child of the '80's.
*I'm a Pagan, and my beliefs are a mix of Far Eastern, Egyptian, and folk magic. I read tarot cards for my friends for free.
* Cannot. stand. country. music.
*My cat keeps my tenuous grip on sanity.
* I love Stargate Atlantis, Heroes, and NCIS.
* I try to be nice to at least one complete stranger a day.
*Why, yes, my house is filled with action figures and comics, why do you ask?

You might be seeing more of my jewelry right now than artwork.  It's just that a few minutes with a ballpoint pen (not the most forgiving of media, I grant), I've realized how farking out of practice I am.  Seriously, I haven't blown so hard at drawing since middle school. Grump. If a few of my friends don't mind, I'm going to look to their work as examples of facial expression and body positioning.  Those seem to be the weak points I'm most pissed about.  Then I can rant on about how I really hate backgrounds and drawing hands.  ultrabaguette and oOWhiplashOo do great work in this respect, and I might seek help from what they do.  I'm not

It's been almost a year since I last updated my journal.  Wow.  I've got several hundred deviations for friends I wanna comment on.  There's been a lot of great work that's caught my eye. The reason I've been off so long is: A) No scanner, and B) I moved out of my Mom and Dad's place, finally.  So I've spent the months since mid-August '09 getting myself comfortable, paying the bills and being a grown-up {which kinda sucks}.  I've just begun drawing again, because most of my work lately has been in writing.  I'm crappy and rusty, but please bear with me. I'm such a dork.  My newest inspiration has come with the new *Sherlock Holmes* movie:

Yeah, I'm back.  I've been on in the past few days fairly frequently.  Nothing to add to the collection, I'm afraid, buuut, there might be an up-and-coming set of EPIC NOTES for my book soon.  A few excerpts of it, here and there.  Oh, and character sketches.  I've been courting this book, on and off, for the past eight years, and now I'm back in business again.  Every new obesession, fascination, gives me ideas for characters to add to this mix.  At first, it was almost entirely the cast of LOTR, but now Stargate: Atlantis and Heroes have given me ideas, as well.  This isn't fanfic, nor are these thinly-veiled caricatures of other people's w

Thank you for the fav^^
THANKS FOR THE WATCH.
SO MUCH. <33
No problem! You draw great body positions and really expressive faces (two things I kinda suck at).

Plus, I really like ~Alexangirl's fanfic and your art for it.

Add to that the fact that you like RDJ (and I saw Alan Rickman on your list, too! :)) and are totally pro-smut, I couldn't help but watch.
There is nothing more worth living for then porn.

Alex's fanfic is soooo good, I can't een help myself. <3

And thanks! It's all a painful, excruciating learning experience. :3
Thank you for the fav!! :D
glad to see ur alive nee-san!
