hi! i hope everyone is having a great day so far! and if not i hope it gets better!
i have a couple questions or something to advertise i guess?
um!!

one is does anyone have any (hallucino)memories of androids or being an android or a cyborg or something like that? or could someone tell me the difference between the two because i'm not sure i know... (i'm sorry!)

two is what's your favorite flower? now that we have some blue and green back it's not as depressing to work at a flower shop!

and if anyone wants a flower crown, please come to Enchanted Blossoms! i'll make one personally for you at a discounted price! ❀ it can be one that'll make me or others think of you or one to your exact specifications!

oh here's an example of one i've made recently!

please come by anytime this week! i should be working everyday!

[ ooc: Please feel free to go to action if your character would stop by the flower shop! ]

This is simply lovely! Do you do a lot of this sort of artwork?

ehehe no i'm more of a novice with crafts like this
i draw more than anything else
i like painting digitally!

Oh! Oh, do tell! Do you have links to some of your work?

i do!
here!

[ pretend she gives a link here, but her art and coloring style will be similar to Loika's, only not as good. ]

These are wonderful and imaginative! I particularly love the way you use color theory. Have you considered exhibiting your works at Reconvention?

oh my gosh thank you! i'm still experimenting with how i use colors a lot but i'm really glad to hear someone say that!
or to read that?

i did think about it for a little but decided against it
i'm not a professional by any means and should get better before i think of showing it off at that level
and i wanted to be able to run around the con this year

I'd have arguments for all but that last point, and I respect that. Still, something to consider for next year, right?

thank you so much! you're so kind
i don't know what kind of arguments you have
but i will consider it!

The arguments are thus: The difference between a professional artist and an amateur is simply a matter of payment, and you were good enough to show me your work with some measure of confidence, therefore you are already at a level where you can find an audience, even in a place like Reconvention.

oh that's very fair!
i've never really thought about it that way?
just that i should be the best of the best if i want to sell or show off

If you'll pardon me being frank, the 'best of the best' mentality is the most destructive thing an artist can burden themselves with.

i don't think you're wrong but i also think people should strive to improve
maybe not be the best of the best
but the best they can be?
i never want to stop getting better

That certainly sounds like a fair middle ground.

right! i hope to reach the point where i'm fully confident in myself!
or at least satisfied with what i put out
