Born 1977, Sign of Virgo - which should mean I am a rather dull perfectionist, all in all. I know I'm a hopeless perfectionist, but I don't know about -dull-. I hope not o.O

Aside from that, I got my Wacom on my 20th birthday, I think it was, from my parents. At first, I told them that there was no way I could ever, ever, ever paint on that thing. I would use it only to fix my paintings once they were scanned. A week later, I was hooked. I find that I can experiment so much more when working on the computer. I grow bold: I try new things because I can save the original version of an image and I don't have to worry about a good picture being ruined for all time, because I tried something different with it. I was always terrified of that. My brush was shy against the canvas, and it stumped my growth.

As it is, I'm just starting on a path towards getting better. I love painting and I generally do it for fun. I'm planning a book on dark fairytales, and all the images are part of a world I've created. If you do not like fantasy art, or art of fae and elves, I suggest you look elsewhere. It's the world of the fantastic that fascinates me, you see. I don't draw big guns, and I don't draw realistic things: I simply don't want to (unless, of course, you pay me - in which case it's another matter altogether!).

On my spare time, I spend time with my friends, and my cat Azrael, and I think I am - for the most part - an easygoing girl. Somewhat temperamental, but I'd do anything for my friends, family, and cat :)

Last, but not least, I leave you with a message Azrael just typed for you by walking across the keyboard:
