Valarie Nicharico

Please visit my DeviantART Gallery to see my other works.

I'm a 30ish mother of 3, married to the man of my dreams.

Art is a hobby of mine though my main background is in religious history and counseling. I like to help people to find themselves. I don't see people as they are, but rather like to look at what I see 'inside' of them. I don't see things like normal people, but then what exactly is the definition of 'normal' anyway?

I have painted since I was a child and took many courses in figure drawing, but concentrated mainly on the female form. Nowadays, I work mostly with DAZ|Studio (which is a free 3D program simillar to Poser) as it offers me the ability to create more realistic characters without quite so many tools (as small children and space constrictions make that rough). Many of my works are commissioned pieces or character work from my own writings of role-playing games I participate in. Please note the copyright information.

Prints of my work can be found on my deviantART account.

Enjoyed my visit, and had fun commenting. I roam the woods, kind of like Johnny Appleseed, but instead of planting seeds I drop comments. This week my comments tend to mention Black Jack O’Breen, which is a cool comic I found which features an irish rogue who returns to his homeland because fae have taken his brother. And awesome sidhe! So I figure most elfwood folk have a good chance of enjoying it.
