Preamble

Ahhh, another social networking site. Well, everyone loves mail, and I am one of everybody.

I'm currently making my living with video games, and yes, I do know how lucky I am. But to offset the programming I do all day, I'm looking forward to some artsy swaps!

Thus far, I've only missed the deadline on two swaps, so let me know if something doesn't arrive!

I like

(It is not an exhaustive list.)

Geeky things with artsy twists (and vice versa), well saturated colours, creamy textured paper, interesting patterns, thrift store treasures, surprises, the fact that I have no allergies, strong coffee, earl grey tea, fruity rooibos tea, chocolate and/or orange flavoured things with crunchy bits.

I dislike

Overt frilliness, inefficient use of space.

I am not a huge fan of dotees.

I fangirl

(In no particular order, and of no particular medium.)

Katamari Damacy, Hawksley Workman, Danny Michel, Metric, Metroid, Zelda, Eternal Darkness:Sanity's Requiem, Banjo-Kazooie, Homestarrunner, Kate Beaton, Life On Mars/Ashes to Ashes (mainly the UK, but the US isn't bad so far), David Bowie, Serenifly, the Buffyverse, the Venture Bros, Doctor Who (mainly the new series), Penny Arcade, Made in Canada, Daft Punk, Flight of the Conchords, Tetris, Sudoku, Tower Defense, Muumit (the Moomins), OK Go, Rufus Wainwright, Nouvelle Vague, Dr. Horrible, Scott Pilgrim, Death Note, Great Teacher Onizuka, Hayao Miyazaki, Neil Gaiman, Alan Moore, Jeff Smith, Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, Sophie Kinsella

I collect

Random bits of paper, things that make marks on paper, awesome yet simple recipes (not necessarily for food), fresh covers of tired songs...

Comment: Woo! Ojamajo Doremi! To be honest, it IS too sugary for me now, but it was my first "internet discovery" back when I was twelve. Thank you very much, I am super happy :D :D :D

Comment: Hey there, I got your bookmark today and I think it's really cool you used Ryuk as the character, I like the detail you used on the earring, it makes that stand out a lot.

Comment: That's a seriously clever postcard! It has little drawings and my swap-bot name on the front and beautiful pictures of red and gold cranes and a fantastic quote. Thanks so much for really taking the time to make something special, I wish I could give you more hearts than just one : )

Comment: Wow! that ATC was intricate! I can tell you worked hard on it. I think I'm going to slip it in with my boyfriend's birthday present if that's OK with you.
Response: That's more than OK with me! I found this awesome glue pen (literally, a pen with glue in it) that helped a lot. I'm actually a little surprised it made it, since I realized afterwards it's too small for Canada's posting standards XD

Comment: This is a bummer that we only get to rate the people that sent the picture to us to draw. I hope you enjoy the picture and the pin!!! Thank you again for sending a good amount of pictures to draw you from!
Response: It actually hasn't made it yet, but hopefully it's just being slow. <3
