# About me

I am a second year student in the PhD program in entomology at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. I love nature, so it is a fantastic field for me to be in. The other possible option would have been ornithology (study of birds), but I am happy with the choice I made.

I love to go bird watching, insect collecting, or just be out in nature. I am more of a solitary bee than a social insect (terrible pun, I know), but I do not mind hanging out with like-minded friends from time to time. I suppose that would make me more of a communal insect.

I am not a great artist (hence coming to DA to attempt to improve my skills), but I have been writing poetry since I was a child. I'm better with a mouse than I am with a pencil, oddly enough. I would probably fail miserably if I ever used a tablet.

Current Residence: Chambana area, IL
Favourite genre of music: Alternative
Favourite style of art: Fantasy
Personal Quote: If you were meant to fly, you would have been born with an imagination.

You are welcome. Your artwork is great.

Also, thank you for the welcome to DA. I had an account ages ago, but I cannot even remember the name. Being an artist of no real talent, I never really followed up on it. >_> I mostly am on to get help improving and find people to do commissions. LOL.

Yes, I have already posted several of my poems. I just wrote one tonight, actually. LOL.

What kind of things does she write, and what is her DA name?

Thanks! I set her to deviantWATCH. I cannot understand about half of the poetry, but what I can understand is good.

HarlequinRaven In reply to separino [2009-05-31 05:02:28 +0000 UTC]

That is really cool, though. I wish I spoke another language. >_> I was trying to learn French, but right now I am just too busy with learning molecular biosciences to learn French.

I swear next paycheck I am going to get you to draw my character Corvidae. >_> Your art is so awesome, and your prices are great! I am paying for my tattoo design this paycheck since I want to get that done ASAP for my birthday.

Thank you. My birthday is June 20. I have been wanting to get this tattoo forever, but I never got anyone to draw it for me. I finally found someone, and the initial sketch already blew me away! It is gorgeous. I cannot wait to see the finished product and get it done! It is the first part of a much larger tattoo that will start with this piece on my shoulder, trail down with a vine design on my arm, and finish with a Celtic knot bracelet tattoo around my wrist. I have to wait for the rest until I am no longer working in an office, though, as I cannot have any visible tattoos. I already have to wear long-ish sleeves to cover my first tattoo. When I am in PhD school and in my career, though, I will be wearing a lab coat, so it will not matter.

separino In reply to HarlequinRaven [2009-05-31 05:39:05 +0000 UTC]

whoa! as soon as it's done, would you mind having a pic and post it here? o should i send you a note with my email.

you gotta cover that when you get a job heheheheh. but that must be cool.

HarlequinRaven In reply to separino [2009-05-31 05:50:11 +0000 UTC]

Yes, please send your email.

Well, I work in an office right now. Once I get into a laboratory, it is not likely to be an issue, but even if it is, I will be wearing a full lab coat, so nothing will show. LOL.
