Thank you for keeping in touch and the warm regards!  Your work is an inspiration to me, so I hope you keep practicing and studying your art.  You have such an amazing skill and enormous potential.

Its very warm of you to say what little work I have posted here on DA has inspired you.  That is very valuable to me as a person.  I am learning to express art more and more for others, which for me has more value than just doing what I want or like. Its of course essential to express interests and emotions through ones work, but value really does weigh so much more in the beholders of art, than the ego of it all.

I want you to know that your art can make a BIG difference in the world to the people who see it and if you can find that value of giving, you will find a greater motivation to express your self through the images that interest you and move you, to connect with other people and make an impression that will inspire them.

I have added your new page to my watch list and look forward to being inspired by your skills and spirit!

I wholeheartedly agree about art as a means of connecting with others. Your deviantart gallery may not contain hundreds upon hundreds of works, but the quality of it is truly incredible!! Thanks for your wisdom and encouragement!

Thank you so much!  I am working hard on finishing Usagi and Luna by the end of January. I will have t-shirts, hoodies, mugs, prints, posters, stickers, Iphone/samsung phone cases, laptop skins, tote-bags and more items available on my Redbubble portfolio of Usagi and Luna.  I will be using a high-res large format, industrial scanner to convert the painting to digital, so the reproductions will look amazing! I will be posting links to my Redbubble portfolio in the comments section of the finished painting when I upload it here on my Deviant Art page.

I have kinda kept my DA page inactive and haven't been painting/drawing for the past few years, but with sites like Redbubble and Patreon, I am so excited to be back creating art that I love and that can also produce revenue so that I can afford to spend more time creating!

I also plan to be uploading painting and drawing tutorials, offering high-res jpegs of my paintings, and other perks to my patrons on Patreon by the end of the year.

I will be painting more Sailor Moon art through out this year.  Are you a Sailor Moon fan too?  If so, who is your favorite sailor guardian and would like me to paint?

Thanks again for your wonderful comments and likes and please keep watching for more uploads from me very soon

Hakura x Michiru for sure  Hakura is definitely the most badass of the sailor senshi!

Even if I don't it should be okay.^^

Go for it! It is very important for you to have the courage to present your work as much as possible (especially to people you may not know), to get feedback both positive and constructive. As far as the paranoia about your work being ripped off, don't worry about it. As a creative mind, you are always coming up with new ideas to replace the ones you had already put to paper. Just take a hard look at what you really are afraid of? Is it really having your work copied? Or is it possibly presenting it to be critiqued by strangers? The later is always more scarier than the first, because the first is so easy to defend. Stealing work is plain wrong and you can easily be justified to protect your work. But when you face criticism, that is subjective and takes soul searching. Show your work, and learn from the feedback. That's how you will grow as an artist and be more competitive from your peers.

Okay, well I'm not so sure I'm afraid of getting critiqued as much as being ripped off.
But I think I'll go for it then, your words have encouraged me, thank you so much.I'm going to make
a watermark fist, or try.

Okay, yes this one is a little different from what I would normally do.
I blame my friend Heela for some of the strange things...like the men with rabbit ears...T__T
so yeah the first volume is already drawn, I just need to ink and shade it^^

Good to see you here on DA Hannah and your work is outstanding! Don't worry bout art theft. Just upload pictures of your work on a low resolution. And you can also 'watermark' your art work which makes it difficult for DA art thieves to steal. I think your big bro has photo-shop and could help with that.

Hi Esther. Thanks for the Happy Bday! I've been fine. I have not been working on my art work very much now a days. All of my time and creative energy is going into writing video game creative content which includes story development, scripts and I'm even writing a novel based on the adventures from the game for the video game company I work for! The game is called Academagia. You can find it here [link]

I hope you are doing great and busy with your art and cards

Thanks again for the Happy Birthday!

Are you referring to the sketch I would like you to critique for me? If you are, my apologizes, work and an infected tooth have gotten in the way of me finishing the sketch. Hope to have it finished after I get my bad tooth extracted which wont be until after next week.

If this is not the email you are referring to, please remind my poor memory
