Oh, wow. I love that drawing of Sam and Alex! And I'm sure Tiarnan would be psyched to see that drawing.

Thank you, Carina! Aah, the idea of a member of Libera actually seeing any of my art is terrifying and thrilling! I can’t even imagine that.

Haha, Narnian, flora-dreams.com would fill up too fast with my Libera-related babble, video game reviews, rants about homework, and useless Star Trek trivia! I’d best stick to Libera Dreams. ♥ Huge thanks to both you and Danie for the kind words—I’ll start working on pictures of Tom Cully and Joe Snelling as soon as I can!

Jude, I appreciate it so much, and thanks also for adopting my picture as an avatar!! I can’t tell you how happy it makes me!!

Dani, thank you, but I am positive you can do way better than me! Do you make art?

Thanks so much! Haha, to get an idea of the composition, I looked at three or four different reference photos and combined the elements from each that I liked (though there are two pictures in particular they ended up being heavily dependent on). In one version, they had their eyes open, but I thought it looked more “atmospheric” this way.

Depending on your definition of the term, I may or may not have done this free hand…I draw using a graphics tablet, so while I have the luxury of Photoshop instruments—a handy color-picker, a perfect erase tool, and an “undo” button—I do not trace, and I start every picture from scratch. Traditional artists tend to have varying opinions about the legitimacy of digital artists, which I understand completely—I personally like to think that all mediums require some valid amount of aesthetic perception, but, of course, I’m biased! ♥

Oops, sorry, that turned into an essay! Thank you again for your generous comments!

I did, I did! Thanks for encouraging me so much! Pffft, of course I missed you, even though you were never technically “gone” thanks to all the other websites we share. Hope you’re feeling better!

And yet, I never had a chance to miss you! You were back before you were gone, considering we've have been e-mailing quite frequently!

Oh, illuminaperpetua, of course you are missed. But I just thought that you are busy creating the next master piece.
