I am back! Thank you for the birthday gifts!

Hello everyone! I am back to posting on my blogger again, after being very busy working on illustrations this whole time. Did you miss me? :)

Thank you so much for the birthday wishes! (My birthday was at the end of march) Thank you for the lovelymessages, presents, roses and chocolates! The chocolates were delicious! :)

To all my friends and fans all over the world, I love you all very much! :)

Just wanted to show one of my quick drawings in my sketchbook. A pretty mermaid pencil sketch.
Yes, this is how I draw, my pencil lines start like messy doodles, and then I clean the messy lines so a pretty
image comes out. I love to doodle in my sketchbook while listening to fun music from the Namco Sound Team.  I need to finish working on this later, I need to start work on the Calendar Girls sketch card set
for Chadpops Entertainment this month. Hint: it will be about sexy pinup girls. That is all I will say for now ;)

Update, mermaid art sneak preview and radio shows

Hi everyone! Yes, I have been away, working on illustrations and some 3d models too. My old mouse is broken so I am using my wacom tablet and cordless mouse all the time. I love this tablet, it saves my hand from having carpal tunnel problems, plus it is so comfortable to work with! I just downloaded the newest version of winamp. I am enjoying a lot of my favorite techno and videogame and anime songs as I work. For all the fans who asked by email, I love listening to techno music while I work, mailnly of DJ Sasha, Paul Van Dyk and the Namco sound team. You guys are amazing! One of these days I will collect every album and track you create! :) I also love good videogame and anime music. When I am not listening to music, I listen to my favorite talk shows:
thedrpatshow.com which keeps me in a positive mood all day while I work on illustrations and creating art nonstop, plus I love learning new things while i work. I can multitask. :)
Newsforthesoul.com I have been listening to Nicole for over six years. I love the guests and the paranormal stuff. Very interesting shows!
Thewonders.com This show is great for all of you who always wanted to know who you really are, and try to find answers to difficult and interesting questions. To my new fans, hello! It is very nice to meet you all :). To those who like to learn to draw from my art, thank you so much for your messages! I am so proud of you! Keep on drawing! Draw the things that bring you joy! Keep practicing so you can become your best! Here is a sneak preview of what I am working on now:
New Egyptian Cobra Queen:
In the inking stages. It was inked with koh-I-noor inking pens on bristol board, 14 by 17 inches in size. It is my new work in progress.
Kimono girl:
I had an idea for a cute girl dressed in a lovely kimono, full with flowers and beautiful designs. I imagine her kimono to be filled with beautiful colors. This one is also a work in progress.
New prints!
The Belly Dancer Mermaid 2: Dance of the seven veils and Mermaid Mom Hugs are now available as 8x10 inch and 11x14 gorgeous colorful prints at: sexymermaid.etsy.com
Well, I must get back to work. And back to listening to my favorite music! I can never have enough techno music in my life. :) Have a great day, and many blessings, everyone! I will see you all soon!
