Yes, I am alive!


No! I haven't dropped off the face of the earth! I worked on my travel diary in Japan a bit--but didn't have any way to scan everything--even then I want to scan it in when the pages are finished. I know said I was thinking of publishing it by the end of summer but that might not happen until the end of the year. But I will work on it during weekends!! :)

At the moment, I've decided to put myself to work this summer and do the visual development for Daughter of Smoke and Bone. I finished the book before I went to Japan and although the romance in the story is kind of...well something geared more towards teenagers, I thought it had a lot of really interesting visuals and characters that I could create. Plus--it is full of periodical architecture and animal anatomy- things that I am weak or inexperienced at. I thought it would be a good way to challenge myself, not to be lazy and hopefully get some scholarship money.



Here are just a few props and designs for Karou and Poison Kitchen.
