Just a quick update on this post - I've upped the kiriban to 600 views, since no one caught the last one! But if you haven't already, I still want to hear your answers to the below! I want to learn more about my watchers.
Soooo, questions -
1. What's your name/alias?
2. Do you post your art on DA? If so, what kind of art do you do? (I know the answer for some of you, but I'd like to hear how you'd describe your own art!)
3. If you are an artist - why do you do art? Are you a professional, is it a hobby, do you do it for therapeutic reasons, to share with others, etc?
4. Are there any artists or creative people, professional or not, that you greatly admire?
5. Favorite animal? Do you have any animals?
6. Where are you from?
7. How are you today?
8. What's something you love to do besides art?
9. What's the last thing you ate?
10. Why do you watch me? Is there a particular type of art that you want to see more of? Or do you know me personally or from somewhere else?
11. Do you know who Ebo is?
And in case you were curious, I figure it's only fair that I provide my answers too.
1. I go by many names... My real name is Shobana. Most people call me Bob - it's a random nickname I picked up years ago. My user name "Ana Bosch" is pretty much my first name backwards.
2. Of course, I post my art on DA. With this account, I'm primarily focusing on comic/graphic novel art, though I may post some random illustrations in the future.
3. I do art because I need to. I get stories and concepts in my head that I need to get out on paper. I don't consider myself to be a "true" artist. I'm not in it so much for the joy of creating an image and using media and playing with color and form as I am for communicating the ideas that are swarming in my head.
4. Ferrets! And parrots! I have two ferrets, a cockatiel, and an African grey.
5. Illinois.
6. Better than I was yesterday. Still not 100%.
7. I love writing. At one point in my life, I was good at it, at least for my age. I've lost most of my skill, but I still enjoy it. I also love hanging out with my animals.
8. I just had some flatbread crackers with herb goat cheese spread from Whole Foods.
9. I don't watch me.
10. Yes!

Demon of the Underground - Patreon, New Mirrors
I wanted to announce some of the exciting things that have been going on with Demon of the Underground in recent days.
First off, DOTU is now on Patreon! I officially launched the page yesterday, and it's already within $8 of my first milestone goal. For those of you who would like to support DOTU on Patreon, every dollar makes a huge difference, and I'm offering some really fun rewards. With enough support, I'd be able to shift my focus away from some of the lowest paying, labor-intensive freelance jobs I get in favor of more frequent comic updates. You can read more about it here at the Patreon site:
