.Testing, testing, 1 2 3...

Hello all! I got all the finished drawings I have scanned at ~Aurxlen's house last week, but, as you can see, have only uploaded the scraps. That should change sometime within the week, but I'm not making any promises. I do have a work in progress, but it probably won't get scanned until I'm back up at school since I'm still working on the preliminary coloring and my lovely scanner is leaving for college before I am.

I finally did some serious school searching yesterday, and have narrowed the already small list down to two universities: UC Santa Barbara and Northern Arizona University. I'm leaning towards NAU, the school I'm not guaranteed admission at, because it's near Lowell Observatory and Meteor Crater as well as a merged physics/astronomy major (and the tuition is so low!), but I'll be happy with either school. At this point it's which school will offer me the better financial aid package.

Truth be told, this entry was mostly an excuse to test out whether or not I'm able to show stamps without being a subscriber. I searched through the FAQ, but couldn't find anything about it. ...Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand it turns out that I can't. I'm kind of bummed now. I was hoping I could decorate my journal without subscribing, but alas, it has to be boring.

Well, I suppose I should get to uploading the rest of my stuff. Here's to a gallery with pictures.

I finally picked up a DevientART account! All thanks go to Aurxlen, who will be letting me use her scanner since I can't make digital art for crap. Perhaps this will inspire me to draw and write more than I have been this summer when I've actually had free time.

Most of the pieces I'll create for a while will probably end up in scraps, since I need to get back into the artist groove. Hopefully, though, I'll end up with some stuff I'm proud of.

When I get some examples of my art up, would anyone be interested in having something drawn for free? I'm a far cry from the best artist, but drawing requests would help me to improve. I may also take story requests, but I'm much picker on what I'm willing to write because I'm a better writer than artist. If free art--pencil, colored pencil, or watercolor--or a free short story sound like a good deal, note me with what you want and I'll see what I can do.


Had an interesting story idea in my head while I showered this morning, something about dragons going to school and a human girl getting dragged into the resulting mess. I may or may not do something with it. Does a Morsair Dagger sound like an interesting character?
