Redirect to original
Description
It's been too long since I've updated this account-- but then again, it's been a while since I've properly drawn anything. (-laughs-) Therefore rather than attempt drawing something new and then wallowing in disappointment at the regression, I played psychology in my favor by redrawing something from years before because no matter what, there will ALWAYS appear to be an improvement (god-forbid the day when that logic no longer exists ((-shutters-)) ).P.S. It's been an even longer time since I've worked with traditional mediums. Oh my poor, neglected colored pencils.....

Yay, you posted something! I want to see more of your art DD:
It's always nice to look back at old stuff whenever you're feeling bad about what you're drawing now. It's amazing how much you've improved~ And have I ever told you how cute your pairing is? Because it's adorable. :'D

Oh if only I could keep their spark alive... ;u; lol
Thank you, m'dear! ...Is it just me, or does it feels kinda strange yet eccentric knowing you're just a couple houses down? XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I couldn't with my own OCxCanon pairing... eventually I changed over to OCxOC but I still like seeing what other people have. : D
And yea, it is kinda weird. xD Funny how close we live to each other, yet how little we've seen each other!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Tis very strange!! lol I feel like we should take advantage of this opportunity though, since I know there are times when I really wish I lived close to another online artist. >u<
Sad thing is, I don't know what.. Or rather, I'm getting the shy-person syndrome & therefore can't think clearly enough. lol
So... If you're not busy, would you like to start off this much needed meet&greet with an art trade? C:
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
We should! And it's ok, I get the same way. :'D I really hate getting all awk and shy about things when I know there's no reason to, but it happens anyways. FFFF
I pretty much have nothing I'm doing the rest of summer, so I'm not too busy at all. xD And I'd love to! What would you like, and would you rather do a one, or two char trade?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
stupid self-consciousness! always being unnecessaryly present ((lol)) But I'm glad to hear you're free! Let us art trade then, and then use that as the starter to get talking more. ( > U O )b
I'm fine with either one or two characters! It is at your request! lol Or if you'd like me to surprise you, then give me a couple of options to choose from & I'll go from there. <3
Now I hope it's not too much trouble, but may I request a creature version of anyone here: [link] (There are more reference pics on the right hand side bar under each of their designated names)? I'm not picky with what animal/creature; whatever you believe fits best. Artistic freedom is at your disposal! >D

It sucks, but maybe some day it will go away. ;; Have any sort of IM? Or a tumblr? haha
I usually like drawing two better, for some reason. : D Do any of those chars have a relationship ie friend, enemy, etc, with another there?
Haha, well if that's what you want I will. xD Um... just as a warning though it might end up as some kind of cat because that's the only animal I know how to draw all that well. D': Unless you have something specific in mind.
Can I note you with a few refs in a bit? Most of the ones I have are old and embarrassing, and I'm in the middle of coloring something slightly less ugly right now. x_x

I deleted any form of IMing due to an unhealthy addiction in freshmen/sophomore year. >U>;; -lamelamelame- I'm in the process of getting a tumblr though! I'll let you know when I get one. I'm assuming you have already have one....link please!!! XD
Cats work for me~! Their sly, devious personality will match my characters well. ( =U= )b lol
I'll send you a DA note with the relationships in just a moment. C: Please forgive any & all cliches with which you will see--I tend to fall victim to those. "OTL
And there you go with being embarrassed again! Your art is by no means ugly in even the tiniest sense! -smack smack-
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Aw. xD I've been on em a bit less lately but it's been helpful in contacting people ;w; I can understand that though
Oh uh... sure here you go [link] Send me yours when you have one. :'D
Alrighty then, just making sure that's ok. |D
Okies, and it's fine haha cliches aren't always bad things in moderation~
Ugh, sorry I do that without even thinking any more. I'm trying to keep the self-hate to myself since I know I get annoyed when I see people do the same thing... gah

I'm glad you uploaded some art! I feel like I haven't seen any of your drawings in forever. XD
You definitely improved, no doubt about it. Mostly in the shading and the details in their hair. :]
I miss SakuriexRiku ;_;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It really has been forever! Motivational consistency has never been my strong point. XDD lol
Thank you for the re-welcoming, Krista! Even though I lurk more often then I actually post, I'm just letting you know now that I'm always happy to see a new artwork update from you. <3 (Especially of the recent collaborations with Wowie. WOOHOO! You two make quite the team! >UO b )
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Aw, hehe, thanks! 8D
I feel bad because I've tried getting into Gaia again (to lurk and see more art from you), but I keep forgetting to log into that site. ><
Do you plan to get an art blog or anything soon? *cough*Tumblr is awesome*cough*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I haven't been going on gaia all that much anymore so you're not missing much. ( > A O ) ~ <3
& Ahhhhhh! I totally forgot about a Tumblr! I think you suggested that once before but my goldfish-like memory wouldn't let me retain anything for more than 5 seconds. >3>; -headdesk- I do, however, remember you mentioning you having an account too. May I ask for the username again (cuz I unsurprisingly forgot? 8D;; lol)?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
LOL no biggie, no biggie! My memory is so shitastic, I don't even remember telling you about Tumblr before. XD;
But my username is "Kriista" on there too. :3 [link]
So if you ever get an account, I'll definitely follow you on there as well~
