Description I have no idea if Ursula Vernon will ever see this. Now that I've drawn it, I'm too shy to shove my work in her face and say 'Look! I drawed you a picture! Wanna tattoo it on yourself?'

But I thought her idea for a tattoo was a neat one. And boy is Northwest-Coast-style-only-more-naturalistic a hard one to wrap your head around if you're used to doing straightforward naturalism.

But hey, I'd wear a brooch like this. I like his slightly manic grin and tense claws. Hand over the fish and no-one gets hurt.

Aw, pretty birdy! That would make a good Tatoo. Not a style I'd like on me, but it's still quite lovely.

I love Kingfishers. I did a report on them in elementary school...I love all birds, but the Kingfisher has a special place in my heart. I only wish I could see one in person.

You know it's cyclic? Now I want to make it into a brooch, but I'd probably be too shy to wave it at you, and too worried about you being freaked out to say 'give me your address, I'll post it to you!'

Heeee! Well, my reply is, "I'd be immensely flattered! How much might it cost?"

I don't actually wear jewelry, really, not even the lovely pendant my dad helped me make, but if you made such a thing, I would LOVE to see photos and think that it had a chance of going to someone who /would/ wear it.

I'm atrocious at pricing things ^_^ Probably 'a shiny arts plz'

Mm, I make stuff, wear it for a week then move on. Save for a few pieces, that is - a wooden ring, a coconut necklace... One day, one day...

I just love making other people wear my stuff

*ahem*... shall I... er... pass it on to her? discretely, sorta?

I'm not a huge fan of the colors, be the actual lines I love. Especially his manic grin.

I think she's already picked a design and is just poking at details, and I'd hate to embarrass her with unnecessary...whatevers. Creepy fangirlness.

On the other hand, she's pretty much unembarrassable, right? Certainly got the aplomb to handle just about anything the internet throws at her. So...er...please? That would make me very happy.

She does have a design picked, but she replied with praise! And I quote: "I'd seriously consider that one...it's very nicely done!"
