Q: How long have you been drawing?
A: Ever since I could hold a pencil, and that means a LONG time.
Q: Who is your favorite artist(s)?
A: Yu Watase, Yoshitaka Amano, Alphonse Mucha, Alphonso Azpiri, Boris Vallejo, Julie Bell, Bruce Timm, and Olivia. Yup I do have alot of favorites.
Q: What medium do you prefer to use?
A: Oils, acrylics, watercolors, Prismacolor pencils, Copic Markers, brush and pens with India ink, and the computer.
Q: What programs do you use?
A: Adobe Photoshop (I first tried the program when I was in college) and I'm learning Corel Painter.
Q: When CGing, do you use a mouse or tablet?
A: At first, I used a mouse, but after March 12, 2003 (I think it was) I finally got my graphics tablet! So all images marked before March 2003, are completed with a mouse. The graphic tablet I have is a Wacom Intuos2 9 x 12.
Q: What was your major in college?
A: Printing with a minor in Graphic Design. But I was only in there for a year and a month.
Q: Do you plan to go back to college?
A: I'm thinking about it. Not full time, however. I'm planning on majoring in Art. But things may change. I'm not really into the whole school thing. I was thankful enough to make it through highschool.
Q: What music do you listen to while working on your art?
A: Hmm, well, I listen to music from Bush to Enigma, Tool to Delerium, Nine Inch Nails to Sarah Brightman, and lots more. As you can see, I listen to a wide range of music.
Q: Are you Goth?
A: As in dressing Goth? No. I'm more of an "Inner Goth." But I did go through that whole Grunge thing in the early '90s. Then there was this hippie phase...but that's all a big blur to me. Nah, I'm truly a tomboy. Simple as that.
Q: How long have you been drawing in the anime style?
A: Since '94 - '95, something like that. But don't pass me off as a "one trick pony." Anime/manga is my favorite style, but it's not my personal style.
Q: How long have you had a website?
A: Again, since '94 - '95, back when I started getting into anime.
Q: Do you do requests/commisions for art?
A: Nope. Sorry, but I find that when I agree to draw a pic for someone, I hardly never if ever get around to it.
Q: How about for money?
A: Nope. Still, it's the fact that when my heart isn't into it, it won't get finished.
Q: Ever think about selling/auctioning off your work?
A: It has crossed my mind, but that's all it's done. I don't know how to do that stuff over the net. (If I did know, then I'd have nothing here and everything on e-bay!)
Q: What is one of your dreams for your creations?
A: Well, to have my "Mystic Kingdom" horses made into toys. (or model horses) If anyone knows how to help me with that, then tell me, please! AND to have "Four Corners" animated. About the model horse thing, I thought about making my own resin models, but I realized I had no funds to get started on that. But it's still an active goal of mine. Though, it would be nice to work with Breyer.
Q: Do you have a job?
A: I work as a nanny for my mother and her new child.
Q: What is your fav. quote?
A: "It is better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self."
Q: Back to art; What were your major influences?
A: Hmmm, I'd have to say American comic books. Especially X-Men. And don't forget about Disney. Oh, and also Japanese Animation.
Q: Can I use you poems on my website or image?
A: If you want to use anything of mine, then please give credit to me. A link back would be simple enough, and also mentioning that I wrote them.
Q: Can I use you pictures on my website?
A: I can't really stop anyone from using my images without my knowledge. BUT as long as you make it known (on your website) that the artwork is mine, I won't have a problem with that. Also, don't change the image, as in changing eye color, hair color, so on. If you want to do this, then you MUST let me know. I would like to know the people who use my pictures.
Q: I found a picture of yours on someone else's page, and they didn't give you credit. (or) Someone stole an image of yours, and is claiming it as their own. What do I do?
A: E-mail me, and I will take a look for myself. Then I will ready my goblin horde to deal with the matter.
Q: What if I want to know something you haven't mentioned here?
A: Then e-mail me at haloghost *at* yahoo *dot* com
Q: Then I guess this is good-bye?
A: Okay. Uh, buh-bye.
Q: Till next time?
A: Till next time.
