Wow, I haven't uploaded a deviation in nearly a year. Sad!

I've been so busy blogging over at weddingbee that I don't have time for DA anymore. :( But I will try to get back into it when I come back. Or rethink how I blog/internet my photos. I might be starting a personal blog site for photos. Something like that to get my feet off the ground as a photographer. I don't know.

Anyway.... I'm getting married in seven days! Whooohooo! It's been a crazy wedding planning journey and I'm so excited to see my family and friends again. It's been 14 months since I saw them for a couple days... so I really need to catch up!

Miss y'all!

Yeah prismacolors are great! They are pretty affordable compared to other art markers, they aren't too wet and they have great colors. I would recommend buying them off ebay if you are looking to save money. I've gotten all my markers from ebay and never had a problem with them being lightly used. A lot of people buy them for awhile and don't use them much... so you can find a good deal.

Thanks for contacting me here! I really don't check the other accounts anymore. :lol:

yeah i've been searching ebay daily and have found pretty good deals. it's just i was looking at a lot of reviews and was kinda confused about them, and i couldn't decide if they'd be a waste of money or not :sweatdrop: so i decided to find someone who clearly used them a lot and ask them personally what they think. do i need special paper to use them on? some ppl say you do and some say you dont... thank you for helping me out anyways. and yeah i looked at your recent activity for your other accounts and realized i'd be waiting for a while for a reply =P

Yeah, I would recommend special paper. I mean, you don't want to use it on printing paper!

They make rag paper for markers and stuff that is thin and good for not soaking through, but I really enjoy working on Bristol board because it's thick. You can get bristol vellum or matte, there are lots of options. It's good for charcoal and pencils too!

Haha, he is probably really cynical about it. :P I'd love to hear what he thinks too.

I'm voting Obama all the way. I'm really ready for all the madness to be over... and God I hope Ohio is a blue state this year. It's really gonna be strange to find out what the results are! (kind of terrifying)

I hope you're doing well! Where are you along in school now?
