Indeed, I am back, and loving being back! How has life been ladies (and the few gentlemen). Once again, I am stricken with the undying love and beauty that is The Endless Forest.
AND, once again I am stricken with the desire to draw a fellow community member. I would love to make just some fanart for someone or a couple or some such thing. Just opening the doors for anyone and everyone!

And just if does and stags alike were wondering, I did finish my TEF themed paintings for my class/show, and they were a big hit! Thanks to Anjali and Kingenvy! My beloveds!

I just realized and .... I suppose I am wondering.... ARE THERE ANY ACTUAL MALES ON THIS SITE?
Maybe it is just ingrained in our female nature to be more drawn to this sort of relaxing, care free, artistic game.... but every person I've gone to's profile has been a female!
Not that i particularly care or anything (love you ladies). I just found it kind of funny XD
Any dudes, stags, bucks, etc. Feel free to comment and prove me wrong!

Okay, so I messaged my favorite artist, Camilla D'Errico, about TEF. Not as like a Spam "hey you have to join this" blah blah blah, but because I actually thought that she might truly enjoy this site and community in the same way I have. I thought it might prove inspirational to her... and guess what? She personally replied back!
She said she would check out TEF when she gets the chance and she thinks its a beautiful and incredibly inspirational site!
She has been such a moving force in my art life and my teacher always says "Stand on the shoulders of giants". She is the giant in my life. I was just so moved that my favorite artist replied to me and on top of that she replied to me about TEF!

'Tis a great day in the land of Odd.

It is indeed frightful here in the frozen tundra that I call home. Good old Minnesota.
I've been working dutifully on my art piece for TEC! Yah..... too bad I'm such a spazaholic procrastinator. But I have been working hard! I think it will be really amazing if I can get it all together. I really want to put up an art page to display some of my past work.... since I really don't have/or believe in having a deviantart. XD

1 week and 2 days old! Oh I'm just a fawn growing up!
I feel like I'm lacking in the puns department. I feel like there should be a pun somewhere in this and there just isn't.

I found out about TEF completely by accident. The Forest is not a blessing in disguise, but a blessing in plain view. The Forest's newest (or fairly new) edition to its friendly family, is my little Odd! A fawn yes, and I know some people quickly tire of Fawns, but the Stags that I met were so gentle and pleasant! Very patient too.
I know this is probably the wrong place to post this but, The Forest has proved to be a completely awe inspiring and enchanting addition to my imagination. I have an art show coming up in April-May, and naturally I'm working my little tail off trying to get a decent collection.
I desperately want to create probably and 18 by 24 watercolor based off of my fawn and some other select deer. I could easily fabricate some, but to truly introduce myself to the community (that seems rather tight-knit), I would love to include some Stags (and maybe a fellow fawn or two) to be included in my art show!
Naturally I would love to share the picture with you once it is complete! I really want to open the community up to be a part of my production! If you are interested, comments are more than welcome to indicate your approval!
