Ugh - I went to change a few things on my DA, since I understand how the site works better now. But I added some old artworks to my "featured" gallery and now they show up first in my gallery... I want them to show them at the end! Do you people have any idea how to solve this?

Illumination workshop, day 1!
I found the place where I was supposed to go, it’s a very elegant old house that looks into the gardens of the art faculty right in the middle of the city. The two ladies who run the place are very nice. They also have a cute dog called Kiki (wtf). With me are only three other pupils, two being old veterans of the school working on their own projects, and just one is a complete newbie like me.
After introducing everyone we got right down to work. We were given an illuminated letter that we are going to reproduce.
First, we traced the letter on our paper (300g watercolour paper)
Then we inked it (with india

So, all next week, I’ll be at a workshop on illumination, in an actual illumination and manuscript school. It should be really cool and interesting, I hope. I’ll be posting some stuff about it on here, of course. I’m leaving later today to go there, and I’m super excited!

A while ago, I managed to scan a few of my calligraphies, and I finaly got around to assembling them (they are A3 so I had to scan half and half and assemble them in photoshop).
So if you're interested in seeing a better version of stuff, here they are : Galadriel's poem, Bilbo and the Elfenking, an unexpected party, and Home is Behind.
Birthday!
It's my birthday!!!
Well, tomorrow.
Anyway, I got myself some presents, mainly art stuff.
Those are artist's gouache (including a white one which should work better than what I've been using up to now), a 0 brush (I have a few others, but they are from my miniature-painting days, so they are in a terrrrrible state), a flat brush, and a brush pen.
I've used them a bit over the weekend, and I'm very happy with what I got.
The brush pen makes amazing drawings (see Fingolfin, and another thing I can't post yet). I was warned it was tough to master, but honestly I'm impressed with what I managed to do, and hopefully it will get even better :
