Deviation Actions
Due to repeated virus Attacks suffered from visiting DA I will no longer be updating this site, visiting this site, or referring people to this site. I will also close my print shop ASAP
If you are interested in seeing my art I have many art sites across the web:
katie.oshinchan.com – My personal website, you can order artwork from here
galacticdustbunnies.blogspot.c… - My art blog, Art, Art Thoughts, How To's, and Show Announcements
ani-bester.tumblr.com – Art on Tumblr (and some random things)
ani_bester.livejournal.com – my oldest blog, mostly fannish activities
ani_bester.dreamwidth.org – similar to LJ, but with less chatter
twitter.com/#!/Ani_Bester - And Twitter, though I lack a phone with net acess and so don't post much as of yet.
Unfortunately, DA's unwillingness or inability to keep their users safe has forced me to give it up. I should have done this when their sexist, bigoted, infantile attitudes reared their heads and I'm embarrassed that it took a personal threat to drive me to this, but that camel's back has finally been broken.
As much as it pains me to do this, I will not only no longer be updating this site, but I will no longer be coming to it at all in any capacity. This is a very hard decision to make because many of my favorite artists post her, some exclusively, but I no longer feel the risk to my computer, my art, and my identity is worth being able to browse artists on this site.
This and I can no longer in good conscience refer people to this site at conventions in order to see my art because of the risk to their computers.
I am still debating leaving the gallery up or closing shop entirely, but frankly I feel it is too risky to even take down (though I will log back in to close my print shop and tidy up a few other things).
If you have an alternative site, I would love a link to it because you are all fantastic artists and I would love to be able to continue to see your contributions to the artistic world.
I just no longer feel safe viewing them on DA.

it's 2018 and I really don't update these much ^^
Hope 2016 Had Been Good To You
2016 Is nearing the end.
It has been a wild journey as new parent. Things got a bit unwieldy for a few months and I felt like I wasn't sure what I was doing and got a bit burned out on art and cons.
I put to much pressure on myself, to be honest, and it all came crushing down.
But! I am doing much better and looking optimistically to the months ahead.
Happy 2016
Well, 2015 was a year of changes.
My best friend, co-table runner at cons, and all around awesome person died at the begining of the year.
I started a webcomic http://stateofdisunion.tumblr.com/ which my friend had been pushing me to do FOR YEARS and is dedicated to her memory (2014 she helped with much of the prelim work before she passed away).
And I had my first child, adorable baby boy Thomas.
And bought a house 0.o
2016 so far has started off with a bang, my original work has gottne into two gallery showds and today I I am interviewing for a third. Wish me luck!!
My convention scheduled is a little spares for Galactic Dust Bunnies
I launched a Webcomic
Aka, how I learned about Hetalia ^^
Back in 2010, I came up with a fun idea that combined my love of history with my love of art. I wanted to create a webcomic that personified the state's as individual characters and through them I would do stand alone (for the most part) strips that humorously (or sometimes not so humorously) cover American history and politics. Welp, I got some very nasty nasty responses from fans of a show I had -at that point- not head of call Axis Powers Hetalia annnddddd I decided in 2010 I didn't want to deal with the wank and scrapped the project.
Jump forward to the Summer of 2014
I was cleaning out some old art

Holy crap, I had no idea such stuff went on with DA! Can you tell me more about all this? (via email or LJ, if you choose!)
