I had a fantastic time at Otakon last weekend, thanks to all of you who stopped by to chat or buy a print! There were times when things got pretty hectic, but overall the experience was fantastic! And I got to fill up on plenty of yummy Baltimore food (mm.... I think there were definitely crabcakes just about every day!! and also sushi.)
I also got to see the art auction this year, for the first time, and it was super-exciting! I love how everyone (even the bystanders) just get so excited when caught up in the bidding. Some bidders reeeeaaally know what they want, and some bidders have to think about it for a while or flip a coin. And the last piece of artwork in the auction, "Shadow of the Collosus" which was absolutely suberb and by a very talented artist, had everyone clapping in delight every time it went up, stopping at eventually $1000! O___O Hoooly!
After the convention I chilled with goomybear in Baltimore and we took a dragon boat on the pier as well as browsed some shops and had a great sushi dinner. Too bad the next morning we had to get up at 3:00am to catch our flight back to San Francisco.... Also, I ended up catching a cold which only now am I starting to recover from. =/ But.... I'd say it was worth it. ^_^ I'll post some new artwork up this weeekend, stay tuned!
Much <3!

Holey moley, a Daily Dev????!!!!!!!!!!
I am shocked and honored and thrilled! Thanks to nighty (https://www.deviantart.com/nighty) and everyone here for their overwhelming support! =D
A European Vacation!
Going to Europe (London and Paris) for a two-week (and much-needed) vacation... =D =D =D =D
Work has been pretty crazy, so I'm super-excited to kick back, relax, enjoy the museums and cafes and tea houses and sights and sounds and romance! =D =D
*rushes off to pack now*
Otakon?
Still alive... i really should be posting in my journal more often. =) Anyway, life is pretty good. Lots of work, but facebook is a great company to work at and a lot of fun (plus you get to stalk people all day, hooray! >D)
Besides that, I'm going to Otakon in Baltimore next week! =D Who else is? I'll have a table in the artists' alley selling prints and possibly other things, and probably put a few pieces in the art show as well. Stop by if you're around! I would love to meet everyone. =)
But... given that Otakon *is* around the corner, this has pushed me into an arting mood again. I don't want to feel lame knowing I haven't drawn anythin
The end is near!
Hooray, classes are finished, exams are done, and graduation is near (this Sunday!) Four years of college doesn't seem so long when you look back at it, but I'm sort of glad to be done with it too. At some point I've hit the saturation limit for learning technical skills, and everything since then has been more about applying those skills and chugging through classes. But I guess it's also not so monumental since I'm not technically done-done with school--still have half a year of my master's to finish up so I won't be leaving quite yet. =) Excitingly enough, Tom Brokaw is our commencement speaker, which is super-cool since I grew up watching

Oy, so glad to hear you had a great time at Otakon dearie!! ^____^ Yeah, the AX art auction was uber-exciting too--so much Kingdom Hearts stuff went for high prices! It's so fun to watch prices go up (and amazing to see the prices people pay!).
I'm still saddenified that Albert and I missed you guys that weekend in San Fran. We did have a good time around Fisherman's Wharf and the Golden Gate, but it would've been more fun to have you there too. Ah well, I'm sure the chance will come up again.
Can't wait to see that new art!
