OK! I got slammed at work so updates slowed down, but all is well.

Also I should mention Matsuricon because it was crazy fun this year.  It would be nice to go back again next year, and talk to more of the artists again (I get shy when it comes to that) I forget everyone but they made it awesome.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by and chatted with me about video games and pokemons and general nonsense <3

Hi and welcome to everyone who recently watched me from meeting me there and noted me with questions.  It is always a pleasure to meet such sweet and cool people.  I WILL put prints and pokemon stuffs and a few things up on a shop site for people who are interested.

Until theeeeeen...... First ten comments get a journal feature in my next journal. I'll pick some arts from your gallery to showcase on here as well.

I like these kinds of journals so I want to do them again.

Coloring some pokemon, and depending on time may do some other things as well (may not)  

Stop by and say Hi ( I will say Hi back) or just take a look for a bit :3

Also I don't have my microphone on tonight: it sounds like I'm talking through a tin can anyway and I don't want to be robot Val haha

Linkies: [link] NOT HERE

Thank you guys <3

it was FUN <3

Whew....So I left for a long time there.

This is just a little journal saying I'm back/over my stupid issues/have working computers again, and I MISSED everyone here so much <3

I was feeling pathetic and needed to find myself, and while it took a year, I can finally see clearly now.  I love my art and I missed making it.

So in case anyone is still around *dust dust* I'll be arting it up again.  Thanks guys <3

The convention was so gooood~ I know I kept saying to people "I'll tell you about it in my journal" but as soon as I made it back to Ohio, I hit the ground running. Busybusybusy. BUT I had a great time, still wish ~Lechau  was at the table with me, so maybe next year : D

Oh gawwwwd so many fun things happened. Meeting so many deviants was the best, I was on adrenaline the whole time. Plus I was able to talk so much pokemon, comics, movies, toys, cosplay, jewelry, comedy, and general anime goodness; alllll the things I love.

Some key moments that stood out to me: Someone signing to me to connect via pokewalker, people who gave me free food (OMG thanks), getting hugged by someone who recognized me from DA, meeting a fujimoto cosplayer who bought my fujimoto print, and a six year old who described to me in detail how pokeballs work. All of that was Amazing.

Oh man, I don't even know when it came to the fire scare, it was strange. Just an odd thing all together, but I'm glad the alley and the rest of the convention was safe.

P.S. sorry people who visited my table, and I was either drawing/quiet or stuffing salad into my face. hahaha, oh and if I was creepy (huh what me?) funny please ignore it~

I STILL didn't find everybody in the Alley!!! I just got lost finding my way back to my own table (how SAD)

But ohohoh I met AMAZING artists there:

and ASDasdfdfggh SO many other people <3 I'm totally forgetting folks <3 but you all get my love.

Does anyone want to see pics? I may post them later.

Also! I'm going to start doing features on some of my watchers, because some serious talent is there, and I want to show it off XD

UHHH yeahhh AND: I will be livestreaming again in the future, really soon, I'll let you all know.

Livestream: [link]
Steam: [link]
OMG why can't I stop playing borderlandsssss, ugh, and the new DLC won't come out until September, but I'm excited for it.

Thanks guys <3 It's past midnight and over now~

Pokemon and characters tonight, I'm going to try and finish the ones from last time <3

Mic is on, and I still sound like I'm communicating from an old tuna can, sorry guys! feel free to mute me and play your own music if it bugs ya ^^

I'll be on until midnight (eastern time)

Live stream: [link]

My livestream is over~ Thanks everyone who came and spoke pokemon with me~ I'll try to do one again sometime!

Right now My priorities are commissions : D I still need to e-mail some folks from the convention about it : D

Night guys~

Livestream: [link]

OTAKON~  I'm leaving in the morning so I won't be online until monday. Send notes if you really want to chat with me about something, and I can answer when I get back.

Team Bear is our table name, our table is S08 [link]

I am bringing all of my prints as well as all the pokemon I have completed up to date. I have a limited number of stickers, so prints of pokemon will be available.

We also sell jewelry: [link]

I'll have a major sale after the convention, because I'm sure I will have leftovers. OH MAN there are so many wonderful artists and dealers going, the list is mighty impressive: [link]

Come say "Hi" even if you aren't buying, I am going to take so many pictures~

Right! I said I would get a steam account and I have one now.

So if anyone else has Borderlands, or the Orange Box (valve pack) friend me and lets shoot up some skags.  I only just started Borderlands, and wasn't even going to play, until my brother went "YOU MUST" and gifted the game to my account.  Thanks Bro, you win, it is a lot of fun. I only played a couple hours, but yeah, I'm hooked. I'm a tank that I named "Boulder: Spastic Cousin to Brick" I'm like level 7 or 8 now, so yeah, such a noob.

We actually got back sunday night, but had to get ready for classes the next day after our long drive back to Ohio. Coming back to reality that quickly was hard. oof.

LONG Journal about Acen:

Acen's artist alley was fun.  I got to meet a lot of wonderful people, and thank you to everyone who was so friendly with me and ~Lechau THANKS GUYS <3 Talking Pokemon, and comics, and general silly-ness with alley go-ers is always a blast.  I will get started on those commissions right away!

This was the first convention where my parents attended.  Watching them experience the alley, the dealers room, and the cosplayers was especially enjoyable to me.  I'm not sure what price I would pay to watch my Dad discover what "Yaoi" means, but it would be a lot, because I loved the look on his face.  My parents enjoy the swords, kimonos, and bento goodies, so they looked at those. ~Lechau and I go for plushies, stationary, and art books. I actually didn't buy anything from dealers room this year, even though they did have nice figurines.

Mostly I spent time in Artists Alley, and OH MAN I met the sweetest people, a few from previous conventions and a lot of new ones. Thank you to ~kirui ~Inaho ~fresh4u ~licchan `hibbary ~CoeyKuhn *ShyCustis and AFHGHJG so many other people :0  All of you made the convention such fun (omg I got so much art this year) And I didn't even get to make it around the whole alley (It was set up strange, I kept getting lost and turned around and such). Next I will go table to table and say proper Hello's without being so shy and awkward.

Also! I have prints leftover, and some pokemon buttons and stickers.  If anyone is interested I'll put up pictures and prices in my live journal. Since my next convention is Otakon I can't bring the pokemon buttons to sell there, so I may as well put them up for deviants : )

I'll put together a sell batch soon, I have to finish some homeworks for my last two weeks of classes (OMG HAPPEN SOONER GRADUATION)

OK, thats all I can think of for now, stay well guys, as I am still busy, little art will make it up this month. sorry >___>

I have so many things I want to finish inking and post but I can't right now. Thus I won't be on much for the month of May.  Summer guys, summer. I'll be on here everyday (to the point of annoying I'm sure)

Also I'll come back into the world of online gaming at full swing, even though I haven't played much lately. (My year consisted of pokemon, final fantasy 10, and persona 3 FES)

I'll be attending ACEN in Chicago [link] with ~Lechau in the artists alley! If you are going stop by and say hi, I'll have stickers, buttons, prints and jewerly again, oh and my mom will be with us (because she has always wanted to go) she is awesome <3

Who else will be in the alley? We'll come by! Honest!

So I haven't been going onto live journal for last couple of months. I wanted to use it to put up my sketches and generally lesser art things.  But man, so many advertisements pop up every time I go there to post. It makes me just not want to bother and I leave.  So I've been rather inactive there.  I'm thinking about just using the scraps folder on here, since most people I know don't watch scraps unless they are really curious.  Do you guys use scraps? Do you care to see them in people's accounts? I'm just curious.

In other news I'm itching to make a new comic badly, but I have to wait until I finish school. Plus I should write something out so it's actually worth reading. So someday I'll get to it.

Also, my art history professor looks like Moby: [link] and it entertains me, also he's a cool prof, he highlights all the notes that you SHOULD write down for the test. This is far better than trying to write about every event in history in case it relates to art

He wants everyone to visit Italy.
