SciFi & Fantasy Artwork by Van Austin Donovan

Van, you're a god of art. ^_^ for real, i'll leave my comments on the other pages.

Aieeee....so cool! *grins* I get to post first!!!!!!!! *eyes the directions of what not to do and just for spite...* "I like this art! Wow!" -dot dot dot- *snickers* J/K...Sorry, I'm crazy today *snickers* I haven't seen some of these before, but they're great!!! *wants to be able to draw more than quality stick figures* ^_^; I hadn't seen some of this before (for instance, the crucifix picture you showed me while I was in my Catholic high school *coughs* *Snicker*) but it's incredible how you do the wings!!! They look all light and airy....I LOVE the fire wings...*nodnod* The color blending is great...it takes a lot of work to try and get colors together that look nice....I've been working with images (alas, not drawing) and trying to change colors and fixing them to look nice is very tough, but you do such a great job at it....they're vibrant, but definitely not gaudy...*shakes head* GREAT JOB VAN!!! *cheers and ends her silly and most likely embarressing rant*

I love all the wings on your charachters.

Wow! Your amazing! Seriously, I mean it! The way you draw everything,....I love it! Thankx for inspiring me with your brilliant art! Your characters and the way you draw your wings,...where did you learn to do all of that! Your pictures are just so cool!!! ^_^

Prove your magnificent, mister! Let's see a picture.

Well, ya, now that you mention it, Koei, I like Zoids and Gundam Seed and Gundam Wing, and a few more Gundums like that. Oh, and Duel Masters makes me smirk, that's a serious and then strangely stupid show! Ha!

Van, those wings are incredable now that I looked closly at them! Almost flawless! Keep working hard! ^_^x

PLEASE no nude or half nude pics! I HATE those! Other than that, your art is wonderous!

Susanna 'Kaoru', wow your crazy for anime! Are there any OTHER shows you like? GOSH!

Van,(love that name), I noticed some of the pictures look like stuff from Rurouni Kenshin(love that show), like the red haired dude, and some Escaflowne(neat show) 'cause of the wings, but never-the-less you use your imagination and talent in ALL your pictures! And its always nice to meet someone that is crazy for Japanese art, manga, shows, 'n' all! ^_^x

Totally nonrelated to anything, what is your favorite t.v. show? I like Ruroubi Kenshin, InuYasha, Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, .Hack//Sign, Rave Master, and maybe a little Digimon, and I KNOW that's 'sad'. And this isn't all 'bout me.

Oh my god! I think im in love! Ur awsome at drawing! They're a perfect mix of anime and ur own style. My pics arent that good but i try...Maybe i can show u a couple? Email me sum time!

Hey i love your pic of the elements i hope you post your story or you could send it to me i'd love read it
