Alright, a little about me... I'm a college graduate with a degree in Visual Art. Having a degree doesn't mean I have to be a better artist, it just means I've done some work and stuff. I have always loved doing fantasy art, and I love to draw without research and references. That is what you will find a lot of here. I do tend to draw anime stuff too, and even if you don't like it, you should give it some credit, because it was the only thing that got me interested in ever drawing people. (I abhored drawing people before)
I haven't been very active on elfwood because I discovered the joys of instant uploads and so forth on deviantART. I have put quite a number of things up there, which would actually qualify here too, but for which I will not be putting here, because they were done specifically for other deviants. If you want to see them, you should go to my
deviant page and check them out there. There are of course things that I have done that I can and am putting up here, and since it has been so long since I updated here, I will likely be doing some renovating and removing some of the old stuff here too. I would have to say that except for the new things I'll be putting up now, everything here is actually really old and outdated. So, I will probably end up taking them off sometime soon unless it is part of a tour or was a mods choice, or if people request that I not remove it.
I am open to doing art trades and commissions, so long as I am not already overrun with things to do. ^^; Just send and email and ask.

| 4 Dec 2004 |  Glo 'the Bug' Bowden | Loading... Your gallery has captivated me. Every single picture is so wonderful! There are many people that try to draw anime out there, but you don't try, you do it and it is gorgeous. Absolutely stunning, truly. I love all of your photoshop colored pics. And your creatures (ie griffons, pegususes[Pegusi?], dragons) are all beautiful. I love the clothing designs you make for your characters -- and your characters are all so fun and original. Keep up the good work!  Annette M. Burke replies: "Thank you. That's a very flattering compliment, and I'm glad you like my pictures. I'll try not to let it go to my head, since I think I still have much room for improvement. " | |

Your dragons are maga wicked awesome and the ationion you pay to the scales is wonderful. Annette M. Burke replies: "Thank you, I love character and creature design, but I get so lazy sometimes, its hard to do all those monotonous scales. " | |
