My Bio
A journalist and writer for practically my entire adult life. I've always loved to draw but was discouraged from doing so because it wasn't "practical" and "reliable."

Now, I'm trying to make up for lost time and although I know I have little chance of going professional, I still have hope. :p I am completely self-taught so if any professional masters out there wanna give me some pointers, that'd be great. I'm a horror/fantasy/sci fi fan, be it movies, TV or books. Love it so much, I married a geek. ;) Although I try to do "serious" art, I am not averse to doing fanart so you'll see them peppering my gallery, if not now, definitely later down the road.

I also do commissions. Note me if you'd like me to create something for you. My rates may not be as low as some non-professional dA artists, but I settled on them based on my cost of living expenses. As it is, I'm lucky not to have to depend on my commission income as I would likely have starved by now. :icongrin--plz:

Feel free to say hi. I don't bite ... not really. :innocent: And if you like what you see, fave and watch. It's a huge compliment always to see people respond to my art. Plus, check out my Favorites. The artists in my collection are all extremely talented and exceptional; artists that inspire me. :love:

P.S. My tumblr is a bit dusty, but I occasionally update it. So don't be disappointed if you see tumbleweeds. :o

I'm on leave for a few weeks. Anyway, I just wanted to give everyone's a head's up if I'm a bit slow to respond; it just means I don't have an Internet connection. The art features will be on hold in the meantime. See you in a month. :heart:

My aunt died today. I wasn't particularly close to her and her passing wasn't totally unexpected, but I'm upset regardless. This is because when she died, she was alone. That's not totally accurate. In a physical sense, at the moment of her death, she had her family with her: my mother, her husband and son, and her siblings. But she was alone when she last saw the world; for years she was estranged from her husband and son, and had managed to almost alienate the rest of her family. She was alone when she fell or collapsed in the street; some stranger called 911 and the hospital managed to track down her brother for emergency surgery. She fe
