# About me
Just your average nerd woman with an itchy pencil.I draw a lot very quickly and with just the minimal amount of effort required, especially when it comes to fanart. That way I can delude myself that I could totally make awesome detailed drawings if I just wanted to.
Currently in an intense Doctor Who phase, but I also have other things in my gallery though they tend to gather dust a bit.
When people ask me if I would like to draw professionally, I say "YES but..." The but means: I know it's really difficult, I'm not sure I'm good enough, and I'm terrible at self-promoting, which is like 90% of the job.
In real life I pretend to be a serious teacher though my students are probably the more level-headed and mentally older ones...
In case you're interested, 'Alda' is made of the first letters of my first and last names, and 'Rana' is Latin for frog, no relation to the pasta brand. Or the fact that I'm French, though it's a nice coincidence. Also coincidentally, both 'alda' and 'rana' are Quenya words, meaning tree and moon, that correspond to a letter in one of the tengwar modes. In case you're interested. Sorry.
If you like my art and fanart I recommend you follow me at alda-rana.tumblr.com ; there's a lot of stuff there that doesn't make it to this page.

I didn't know you were a Phil Sandifer fan.

I don't know if I can call myself a fan, I read what he writes from time to time and I'm afraid a lot of it goes right over my head ^^ What I can understand is usually very interesting though. It was just the first time a somewhat 'big name fan' reblogged me so I felt like squeeing a bit

I'm too young to be this old *sobs*

no worries, besides: age is how young you feel, not how old you are.

Right, besides, I got mistaken for a fellow student by a 20-year-old guy recently so things are not too dire yet ^^

You're very welcome! I love your drawings. They're like traditional ink drawings with a modern twist, I like it a lot!

It's a thing I have to do...?? Read till the end it's adorable! I sent an angel to watch over you last night, but it came back and I asked,"why?"...The angel said,"angels don't watch over angels!" Twenty angels are in your world. Ten of them are sleeping, nine of them are playing and one is reading this message. God has seen you struggling with some things and god says its over. A blessing is coming your way. If you believe in god send this to 14 friends including me, if I don't get it back I guess I'm not one of them. As soon as you get 5 replies, someone you love will quietly surprise you... Not joking. Pass this message on. Please don't ignore it. You are being tested and god is going to fix two big things tonight in your favor. If you believe in god drop everything and pass it on TOMORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE. DON'T BREAK THIS. SEND THIS TO 14 FRIENDS IN 10 MINUTES IT'S NOT THAT HARD. WHOEVER SENT THIS TO YOU MUST CARE ABOUT YOU
