# About me

My name is Dina. I am an illustration student at Savannah College of Art and Design. I revel in conceptual depth and especially enjoy exploring the stories presented within all forms of artwork. My imagination has a lovely habit of running away with me...
Train's "Drops of Jupiter" is my favorite song.

There we go; now I can keep track of you again. XP

Out of curiousity; any meaning to the new name?

Oh, most definitely. The name is actually a flower that is the symbolic representation of one of my main characters.

Oh okay, that's pretty cool. More elegant than a banana-themed name, eh? XD

Hey, welcome back! As a thought to your bluebanana's journal; I completely understand you. I quit art and drawing for ten years because I thought I couldn't draw. For me it took years to recover from fear of drawing. But remember - just draw every day. Even if only circles on a paper. Just get your hand moving.
Wishing you all the best!

Thank you for the advice. It's reassuring to know other people have been through the same thing and make it through.
Wishing you the best as well, looking forward to seeing more of your work.

Hey girl, welcome back! Not sure if you remember me much, we had met many years ago at Numa Con. Glad to see that you're returning to art.
By the by, if you are worried about a career in art, I can give you some advice if you would like it.

I've been well. About to graduate college in about four months, have a possible job lined up in the animation field, been pretty busy. You?

Absolutely, I'll send you a note.
