Dear *pyromaniac

I know you don't know who I am, but I guess you're used to lots of strangers who are fans of your work by now.

Thankyou for very for inspiring me to draw this picture ^_^ it has made me discover a new love for biros and another new way of drawing.

I am looking forward for your critisicm of this piece so I know where to improve.

One note though is that the scanner ruined the yellow T_T so its all bright and you can't see the 'veins' in the yellow leaves and kinda ruins the background a bit. Maybe to work the scanner properly in future is something I can improve on ^_^

I hope you like this picture even though it is nothing compared to your art :bows:

Righty-ho, dear every other reader who's still reading, *pyromaniac is the first ever artist who has actulaly inspired me to draw a picture, also, the cold I've had recently also made me feel the Autumn Spirit and helped motivate me to draw. (this picture looks MUCH better in real life - the scanner always ruins pictures)

wow.. I am wierd O_O; does anybody else here feel the autumn spirit? please somebody say yes; I'm always the odd one out in everything

Autumn days when the grass is jewelled
And the silk inside the chestnut shell
Jet planes meeting in the air to be re-fueled
And the things I love so well

this song has been stuck in my head for the last few days, and is a little song I used to sing in primary school in Autumn. I LOVE this song. Recently Ive have been COMPLETELY taken over by the autumn spirit that I feel and have been LONGING to do something to express it. I guess this is how I've tried to, though I don't seem to have conveyed it very well... damned scanner..

And I LOVE CONKERS! Always loved to collect them and stuff ^_^ they're so interesing and idfferent to other autumny thingies, and colourful leaves are so pretty, not sure what the toadstool is doing there but they tend to remind me of fairies, and the little girl sitting on top of the conker is a fairy I guess.

not sure what her name should be, thought it could be just 'Autumn Spirit', I mean, spirits don't HAVE to have names do they?.. I'm contradicting myself, sorry

Really wanted to do a scarf character since I saw Pyromaniac's Scarf Team Freaks United picture.

Didn't have watercolour pencils, will ask for some for Christmas, I used watercolour pens instead, for the background and the conker I mainly used watercolour paint, white deleter ink thing and tipex (cos I didn't know how to use the deleter I'm stupid, sorry)

And I use BIRO! XD

I wanna draw more stuff like this. Recently been listening to Crush 40, LOVE their stuff, and the song 'Throw it all away' whch is one of Shadow the Hedgehog's songs, and its been making me think of halloween...


mwahahahahahaha

just watch out everybody! Katja will strike soon again!

just after work experience ends probably




.... omg I'm scaring myself now (O_O) first of all I write a thankyou letter to an artist who I'm a fan of, then I start talking about a load of stuff and not making any sense..
... something is wrong with me, I think I still have a cold cos I still can't think straight...
