# About me

Welcome to my gallery! If you're new to DeviantArt, click on "Gallery" near the top of the page to start browsing. (From there, choose a category, or "All" to show everything.)
The range of art here covers many years and innumerable hours spent nose-to-subject, obsessing over details, and trying to align each project with a demanding personal ideal.

Meeting my own standards is an absolute battle most artists can relate to, but it's worth the struggle (even when I'm curled up under my worktable questioning my abilities). You've got to do what you love to do, and I hope my love for what I do shows in everything you see here.

My great loves include my husband, all things MYST and D'ni, soulful video games, the natural world, cosplay, and observing tiny birds.

For more frequent (and often random) content, follow me on Instagram! It's where most of my Work-in-Progress photos go, as well. instagram.com/hylianjean/

Thanks for visiting! I hope you enjoy. :)

Hi, there probably a very random question but your Princess Mononoke Cosplay....what did you use to make the spear. I am making my own San cosplay (my first ever making) as was wondering if you could helpΒ Β

Sorry it took me a while to check my DA and see this! (Also I'm freaking out a little bit that I paused watching Sense & Sensibility to check this and was confronted with your icon right there, haha!) My San's spear is made from two pieces of foam-core board, each sliced halfway through, up their length, on the inside, so they'd fold at a gentle angle, and cut at a very sharp bevel on the edges so that at the very edge there's no foam left between the two paper edges that meet. Theyre then mounted on a paper tube wrapped in black and that is secured to the end of the pole, which was a dowel left in partial shelter in my backyard for a long time to weather and warp. The chevrons are a metallic red paper card, cut out and folded a bit for some dimension, and glued on. It's a delicate prop but extremely lightweight.

I figured this be the easiest way to get a response, but I run a Legend of Zelda blog, & I post news, cosplay & art. I noticed you said you didn't want your stuff used w/ permission, so I was wondering if you had a tumblr by any chance so I could tag you in any art or cosplay I post of you so I can give the credit where credit is due & give all my likers your blog so they can check out more of your stuff, whether it be on tumblr or here.

Thank you!

HylianJean In reply to OGCeegKTA [2014-06-19 19:32:43 +0000 UTC]

Hi! Getting permission is always appreciated, and really, so long as there are credits and links I don't mind things being shared. I'm mostly interested in making sure my photographers get credit for their work and people know where to go to see my work. (Though, it's really nice to be told when people feature my stuff so I can see it and thank them.)

I do have a tumblr but I don't use it nearly as much as I should. hylianjean.tumblr.com There is some behind-the-scenes stuff there if you're interested.
Most of my work shows up here at DeviantArt (when I get around to posting it!).

Thanks very much for asking! Please do send me a link so I can check out your blog!

OGCeegKTA In reply to HylianJean [2014-06-20 21:18:58 +0000 UTC]

It'll be no issue giving credit to everyone that was involved w/ the photos! I have a few friends who cosplay almost for a living, I know how much it means to them, the photographer & everyone involved.

My blog link is anlozfan.tumblr.com. I feature mostly art, but I've been wanting to do cosplays as of late b/c it's something I see a lot of. I'll be more than happy to post your tumblr & DeviantArt link on photos as well to get your name out there as best as I can.

You're quite welcome for asking, & thank you for sending me a message! I really do appreciate it!

Ah, That's alright, I hope you get those projects done at a drop of a hat. ^^


And you're welcome, your re-creations of the mask is amazing, though I still haven't saved up enough to place an order anyway. ((I have to get my laptop fixed first, and then get a WiiU before I even Think about it. . . ))
