Hello!

Journal Entry: Fri Sep 2, 2005, 1:09 AM
in light of my website ([link] may it RIP) has died/vanished/may not come back for a long time, I thought maybe I could try out deviantart. So here I am!

For those of you curious, I am a sophomore English major at the wonderful, happy, magical Carleton College. My art is mostly mixed-media creations based in watercolor, but including maker, collage elements, and sometimes old makeup because I never use it otherwise :: laughs::. I also like sketching and experimenting with digital media.

I prefer to update my livejournal, and so don't expect much of anything to go here (here as in the journal. All my art will go here though).

That is all.

Devious Information

  • Current Age: 19
  • Current Residence: Carleton College
  • Interests: literature, cultures, randomness, Latin, Spanish, ballet, art history, tea, chocolate, connecting
  • Favourite band or musician: Joni Mitchell (ask me to write any more, and the list will go on forever)
  • Favourite genre of music: folk, rock (mostly of the classic sort), classical
  • Favourite artist: Pablo Picasso, Paul Gauguin, Auguste Rodin, Ma Yuan
  • Favourite poet or writer: Gabriel García Márquez, Virginia Woolf, Nabakov ... don't even get me started on the poets
  • Operating System: Mac OSX
  • Personal Quote: "Daps placebit hodierna: virent ova. Viret perna." -- Green Eggs and Ham in Latin
  • Tools of the Trade: watercolor, pen (love those microns), scraps of paper, thread, literary inspiration

Sorry it's taken me forever and a day to reply; I've been having a rather stressful term at school and haven't really been replying to messages. I think the sepia tone of the paper is partially due to the way it scanned, but then again, the paper of the sketchbook I used is slightly tinted. It's from a company called Moleskine, and they make lovely sketchbooks with really nice heavy paper. They're a little on the pricey side, but so worth it. I have a pocket-sized one (where I drew Priscilla) that I absolutely love.

De rien. It is quite alright. I am so very glad that you got my message. I adore your Priscilla picture! :heart: What kind of paper did you draw it on? It looks kind of sepia, it is really pretty.

my favourite word is autodafé, but quixotic is high up on my list too, along with ubiquitous and a few other selected words (onomatopoeia !) :)

Thank you muchly on both accounts. :)

Haha! That's pretty nifty! I guess that's what I get for having a very unusual favorite word (quixotic).
