About Me: Hmm, this bit is always difficult. I have blue eyes and long red hair, which is unfortunately dyed red, not naturally, but a lot of people think it's real, so that's kind of nice. I am an illustrator, or at least try to be, and I tend to paint mostly fantasy, gothic or children's illustrations. I love everything to do with gothic things, but my absolute favourite are Harlequins, Fools and Jesters.
Music: 30 Seconds to Mars, Evanescence, Within Temptation, E Nomine, Nightwish, My Chemical Romance, a lot of alternative music, classical and soundtracks
Movies: Lord of the Rings, The Usual Suspects, Shawshank Redemption, Medicine Man, Gorillas in the Mist, Underworld, Equilibrium, V for Vendetta, Apocalypto, Spaceballs, The Others, Phantom of the Opera, Romeo+Juliet, Nightmare Before Christmas, Edward Scissorhands... there are many more but I never seem to remember them when I'm writing these.
TV: House MD and CSI. IT crowd as well but that's just becos I know so many geeks. Don't tend to watch telly that much.
Books: LOTR, Around the world in 80 days, Picture of Dorian Gray, Neverwhere, Stardust, The Old Man and the Sea, This thing of Darkness, Pride and Prejudice, Hornblower series, Discworld, the only fantasybooks I still can read without getting a massive inspiration... I can't read much of them anymore, I'm more of a writer than a reader nowadays.
Likes: Forests, Birds, Snow, Fantasy, Gothic things, Winter, Castles, Cathedrals, Harlequins, Jesters, Fools, Masks, Masquerades, Theatres, Old buildings, Ruins,... If I would list everything this would be a very long list.
Dislikes: Puppets. Well not really dislike. More like am terrified of. Uptight people, and people who pick fights... Narrowminded people, and people who can't be taken seriously, people who think too much of themselves.
The word EMO. Took me ages to figure out what it means...
Rap music.
Hobbies: Running, Swimming, Kung Fu, Knife Throwing, Fencing... Well some of those I need to start again.
Photography and other art forms, and WRITING
Vices: Chocolate. I've been trying to be a good girl and change to dark chocolate. So far so good, though I still can't let go of my mars bars...
I tend to say things straight that people don't want to hear, but I never mean anything bad.
Virtues: Eh... I don't know. I'm fairly nice, I think. I've heard people call me nice. I don't know if that's a virtue or not.
Heroes: Neil Gaiman, Dave McKean, David Mack, Jaques Cousteau, Jane Goodall, Amano, Alan Lee, Death from Discworld
Ha yes been here... Infact I am still here with my own art! One thing that gets me is when people say,"Why don't you do this? Or paint that?" As far as I am concerned I do what I want and if other people like what I do then that is a bonus! I think as artists we will always strive to be better with what we do, it comes with the terratory unfortunatly!
