Changes in the Wind

I'm so sorry that it's been ages since my last update, but we have been diligently working on projects, discovering some new talents and art forms.. and thinking about the best way to present each of our unique artistic gifts to our audience.

Hermie has taken over full writing responsibility on the multiple Wandering Stars Press series' working their way to publication. She has also taken up crocheting ponies! (My Little Ponies: Friendship is Magic has become our new very favourite thing! Lol) We were pretty shocked when she just announced watching me sew my pony plushies one day “I think I'll crochet a pony!” I was really surprised how great her first try turned out. You can check out her DJ Pon-3 here.

Nevi has been working more on her art now that she has more time to create. She also has been inspired to add MLP artwork to her repertoire with the beginning of a MLP-themed tarot deck (major arcana only at this point) based on Twilight Sparkle's journey.

As for me, I've made a couple of couples – Sam & Michael (Burn Notice) and Ban & Ginji (Getbackers) - on commission and finished my first MLP Cuddle Buddy, Pinkie Pie!  I've got a couple more commissions on deck, as well as my next pony, Twilight Sparkle. Plus a couple of other projects I'm tossing around.


And those changes I mentioned? It has occurred to me, as the marketing/ social networking/ general internetting person, that it might make building our online presence (galleries, blogs, etc.) simpler for our followers if I separated my artwork from Nevi's. My thinking (and she agreed) is that we might not necessarily share the bulk of our fans, as her work can be very different from mine, and it might not serve those fans to combine all our work and make them wade through things they're not interested in seeing. So with that in mind, I will be working over the next couple weeks to make up the necessary pages for both of us. In some cases there will be whole new pages to follow, in others it will just mean a change of name and focus. When the whole process is complete I will post another blog detailing where to go to find what you're looking for. Hopefully that will be simpler and more convenient for us all. :)
