Your Snarry Games Team: Romance! (teamromance_art)
1. What made you decide on Team Romance?
I appreciate the infinite variety of art and fiction the fandom produces, but I myself am a sappy, romantic, generally wet individual at heart. I therefore, am most satisfied and honored to hail from Team Romance! (I would have been a lead weight around the neck of Team Angst)
2. Which HP character is your favourite to create in art?
I really like drawing Harry best, although Snape and the Malfoys come close seconds.
3. Has your experience in fandom changed the way you do art? How?
A better question would be 'How has the way I do art *not* been changed by the fandom?' I really couldn't draw for beans when I first discovered HP and its fandom. By the time I discovered Snarry, I was getting slightly better; however, most of my major influences are artists in the Snarry fandom.
4. Do you prefer drawing your own scenarios, or drawing scenes from canon?
I mostly prefer to draw scenes of my own imagining, although I have been known to be heavily inspired by JKR's books and all the wonderful fanfiction out there on more than one occasion.
5. What made you decide to draw fanart the first time? Which fandom was it?
My first fanart ever was drawn for the Digimon fandom. That show and its fandom were like my religion, back in the day, and I am an artist at heart-I was compelled to craft images of that which I worshiped. I started drawing HP fanart for much the same reason.
6. Who is your favourite fandom artist?
I have so many favorites, I really couldn't choose just one! I suggest taking a look at go the Participants list for the Art Games - a staggering number of the artists I idolize are participating!
(...I hope I measure up....)
7. Have you ever been inspired to draw fanart for a fanfiction work? Why?
Yes! Some fanfiction is so sad or beautiful or sweet or hot or just plain powerful that I have to draw a scene or two from it. I mostly try to post work that is based on ideas I thought up myself, though, so I don't always share my fanfiction-related stuff-those ideas belong to the many lovely authors.
8. What are your favourite mediums to work with?
I really, really love the computer programs Adobe Photoshop CS and Painter IX, although I still do a lot of my B&W outlines with pen and ink and then scan them.
9. Do you have a piece of art (fandom or original) you've done that you are most proud of? Would you link it here for us?
I can't say I'm truly *proud* of anything I've done (pride being something to be generally avoided by me, if possible). I will, however, give you a link to the work I am most satisfied with-a personal favorite, if you will.

10. Are you excited about the Snarry Games?
...this is a rhetorical question, right? If I quiver with excitement and anticipation any more than I already am, my hand will be shaking too hard to draw a straight line!
Thank you, nym_aulth!
