I never logged out of here! I was going to completely wipe this account, but those apps cost money so all my stuff is still here.

Please come find me on the other apps if you'd like! I have 5 extra codes. If you want one, add me on discord @ valoriejames!

Still haven't cleaned up this account but I have a spare code!

So I've made the decision to start cleaning this account up and moving elsewhere. I'm still looking for a blsky code, but otherwise I will be on Tumblr.
If you want to add me on discord please do. My user is valoriejames. I'm gonna miss the heck out of seeing a lot of you.

Tiny headshots of my Neopets in between work these past couple days! In order, they are my White Draik, Wraith Draik, Toy Draik, and Faerie Ixi.

Been a bit physically ill with a mystery condition for a while and I've had a flare up so apologies for inactivity. Should be back to it soon!

I don't normally believe in fate, but I went to New Orleans when I was 16 and a palm reader told me I was meant to be a writer and would one day write something very special. I forgot about it, but now that I'm 40k words down, I remember. I hope it means something to someone.

It’s #PortfolioDay !!
I’m Valorie from Alabama!
I’m in a sorta transitional stage in my art right now.
I like experimenting with lighting and color, all while maintaining a soft feel. Most of my art revolves around characters from my project, which I will hopefully share soon!

@squirtally Thank you so much!

@ArtNevoa I seldom use line art but when I do, I really like to use either the standard procreate pencil or the mercury brush!

[Valorie James ✧ check pinned @valjamesart]

@9ofSw0rds As someone who has received art from you, I can assure you that I immediately showed my friends and partner and I still love it so much! Anyone should be thankful someone would take time out of their day to draw their OC, regardless of "skill level"
