Today seemed like a good day for another art dump. I added a pile of things done throughout the last year, and deleted a bunch of old stuff at the same time. Probably less than I should have. I'm sure by the time this ticket goes through I will already be regretting leaving some things that I did. Anyway, I know I don't update Elfwood very often, I guess it's just easier to update with a whole lot of art at once, rather than make yet another ticket for the queue every week for just one or two pieces. So those of you that are less patient, (not that I get an overwhelming amount of traffic,) will have to look for me at myre.deviantart.com if you can't wait. That said, while it's easier to update more frequently in other places, Elfwood was my first home and I always seem to find myself back here.
As for the general explaination: Much of this stuff comes from games of D&D. We've been running a campaign for over three years which is where such reoccuring characters as Nina and Garneth come from. Other characters hail from various stories and projects in the works in my head and on paper. So while there are a few stand-alones, many characters are repeating. Not that you really care, but I need to put something in the bio block right? Hope you enjoy your visit. :3
I really like what I have seen of your gallery. I'm sorry I don't have time to go through it all, but I love the concepts and themes. It's nice to see complete work here, and done so nicely too! I will look for your gallery. Also, as far as providers go, some internet providers provide free web space. They may also give you your own site for not too much money. Good luck on your provider search!
Woohoo, another Joanna of the Woods! I really hope I can be as good as you in two years time. Your work is fantastic As for free sites, try batcave.net. I love it to pieces.
I want to say that I love your character's clothes. I think that your sense of design and fashion is very good, unfortunately a lot of it is not stuff that people wear much these days, but if it work I think you could be a fashion designer. Although, if you really wanted there are ways to tweak the clothing you have hear into a more modern style for marketing purposes. Anyway, so I love your patterns and subtle decorations in the clothing. I also like the poses that your characters make. Are you drawing from your head, or do you have a model? My art prof always tells me I need to draw from a model, but I don't have one available so I use my head and they never turn out quite as good. Though I like CG art, I want to see some of your work in another medium, mainly because I don't do much CG art and so I want to know what these things would look like in a more traditional one , oils, watercolor, colored pencil or marker. I think you could produce a wider ranger of color in less time . I also just want to see what techniques you use, something I can't observe in CG art. Nice works. Keep it up! Joanna 'Myre' Fuller replies: "I spent a lot of time in model drawing classes, and there are pictures of people on the train and such that litter my setchbook for practice, to help me get used to figure drawing. But when I actually draw a fantasy piece, it comes out of my head. However I don't think it would be at all successful if I hadn't practiced with models before hand! And I'm not sure you really do want to see me draw in traditional medium...it's, ah, not as good. I sort of retreated to Photoshop because the colours mix more like light and less like...paint. Haha!"
Love your work keep it up, you have such great style.

I've found you! *hugs tightly* Yeah, I saved a picture of yours and forgot to write down your name. Couldn't find you for ever. *rambles on and on* ANYWAYS... You're a goddess when it comes to art, your talent surpasses (sp) many gifted artists. I swear- my jaw dropped when I saw Nina.
