Australia
Ugh, I'm so bad at these. I really hate talking about myself.
There are tidbits of information about me all throughout this page, and my journals, but if you're lazy then here are the basics!
I'm from England, but I live in Australia.
I'm engaged to a gorgeous man who makes me laugh until I need to pee, every single damn day.
I know, gross right?
I mostly use Colors!3D for 3DS to make my art, hence why the resolution is so bad. This will all change when I get my shiny new Wacom Bamboo for Christmas!
I cherry pick my favourite drawings from Colors! to post here, and I don't post anything on dA that contains OCs belonging to non-dA users. If you want to see my full C!3D gallery,
you should totally click this link. I'M NOT A BRONY. I like MLP, and I like drawing ponies from time to time (less so now than I used to), but I refuse to be associated with the often-times
insane fandom that seems to go hand in hand with it.
I'm a bit of a nerd. I love word puzzles, reading, playing Solitaire, and I know Pi to 10 decimal places. However, I do NOT like The Big Bang Theory. It's just not funny.
I love sci-fi shows and movies. Also fantasy.
I have a wide music taste, but most of what I like falls under rock or metal.
I adore all things weird/spooky/creepy/bizarre, and am consciously pushing my art to reflect that.

Interests
Favorite movies
I'll watch almost any movie once. Sometimes more than once, if it's good. I love horror, fantasy, adventure... and a good love story. Not those crappy rom-coms though. Disney's good, too.
Favorite TV shows
Stargate SG-1, Adventure Time, Farscape, Stargate Atlantis, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Another, Twin Peaks, Phineas & Ferb, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Firefly, Buffy the Vampire Slayer... there are probably a ton more I can't remember.
Favorite bands / musical artists
MUSE! Caravan Palace, 30 Seconds to Mars, Birdeatsbaby, Avenged Sevenfold, Savage Garden, Halestorm, Pink, All American Rejects, Hoobastank... again, more.
Favorite books
Apple of His Eye - Patrick Redmond, Stardust - Neil Gaiman, Mort - Terry Pratchett, The Night Circus - Erin Morgenstern, The Rats - James Herbert, From the Corner of His Eye - Dean Koontz. LOADS more.
Favorite writers
All of the above, plus Stephen King, Ben Aaronovitch, Margaret Atwood, Anne McCaffrey, J V Jones... the list goes on.
Favorite games
Pokemon (the whole shebang), Catherine, Jak & Daxter, Rayman, Mario Kart, Lego Indy, Lego Batman, The Sims 2/3, Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy... but that's just video games.
Favorite gaming platform
3DS, PC, PS3, kitchen table.
Tools of the Trade
Occasionally I'll use pen and paper, but I mostly use Colors!3D on the 3DS these days, until I can get a tablet. Crazy, but true.
Other Interests
sewing, alt. fashion, eye makeup, vintage everything, baking, chocolate, coffee, writing, singing (badly), Charleston, cocktails, science!, creepy stuff... I dunno. I'm a little bit interested in EVERYTHING.
