Please READ the information!!!

I apologise first about doing a small rant, it's just that it's been happening so much due to some people NOT reading the description when they purchase something. online store

TL;DR- I have had various cases where customers only purchased freebies when they especially said "ONLY REDEEMABLE WITH PRINT PURCHASE" and they have caused many problems.

To make it easier for customers who purchase prints/bookmarks and would like it signed/doodled on, instead of having to tediously add on in the notes section about that fact that they'd like a signature, I made it so that they can just go to the 'Freebies and Perks' section to add whatever they want to their cart (such as the free smaller print, doodle on print etc.). I don't charge anything for these and many customers just simply 'purchased' the freebies and perks and checked out with a $0.00 balance. I obviously can't send them the perks without an actual purchase and storenvy has a problem, where sellers themselves can't close the transactions unless they refund from paypal. I can't exactly refund a $0.00 balance can I...?

I emailed all of the customers and none got back to me.

I also contacted storenvy customer service and first time, they never got back to me, and second time, they said that there's nothing they can do.

I wrote very clearly on the description of the freebies and perks that they were only redeemable with actual purchase, but either they never read, or read and didn't care.

This morning I recieved another email saying "Congratulations! You made another sale!" from storenvy. Full of excitement, I opened the email, and found another one of the "freebie" transactions...>.> This was it. I went over to my storenvy and was very tempted to delete the perks all together, but decided to make it $0.05 to allow it to still offer convenience, but still able to be refunded. HOWEVER, if another case of someone just purchasing perks, I will delete them.

-end of rant-

Phew, that felt better getting it out, especially after a weeks of stress of assessments, everytime I get one of those "Congratulations" emails, I get worked up for nothing. It really does get frustrating... I'm off to do exam revision now and when this weekend's over, I should be less stressed and will continue to draw ^^

Thankyou

There is so much I want to say, but so limited time. I have not been able to use my computer lately since it is out of battery and I dont have the adaptor for Japan (since I always used my roomies) and so I have only been able to use my phone. I am in the PC room at school right now so I will take this chance to thankyou you all. THANKYOU to all my watchers for sticking with me for another year!!! I hit the 1 year on DA mark a few months ago and it really made me think how far I have gone in the past year. I have met so many amazing people through deviantart, as well as my 2 conventions this year. I have learnt so much from my neighbours who helped me through my first time at a convention. Special thankyous to :iconry-spirit: :iconthiskidthatkid:, :iconlachuc: for all the help. ありがとう

To be honest, I had a little wish which I prayed would be granted by the end of 2012, and that was to reach the 600 watchers mark. I made the wish when I came to Japan, but knowing that I won't be able to update much, I doubted that my wish will come true. But it did! Yesterday, Thankyou so much. Each and every one of your support is what keeps me drawing. I guiltily admit that I have yet to finish my 400 watchers Shizuka artwork, but I'll start working on it ASAP!!! Promise!

One more thing. A week or so ago, I recieved an invitation to be a part of :iconethereal-artbook: which is a charity artbook that aims to raise money for RedKite, which is a foundation dedicated to helping children with cancer and also their families, providing both mental and financial support during the tough times. I will do my best to contribute to this artbook, along with many much more talented artists such as ;iconcherriuki: :iconkururu-pon:,:iconai-wa: and :iconarieaesu: Please purchase an artbook when it is open for orders, since all the money goes to a fantastic cause (and you'll get a great collection of artworks >w<)

New Year's resolution in regards to art

1. Do more human anatomy study
2. Do more scenery, colour and lighting study
3. DRAW BOYS!!!
4. Finish my artbook and manga before my 16th birthday
5. Meet more artists and attend life drawing lessons

And....!

It's really late, but MERRY CHRISTMAS and have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Congrats to everyone for surviving the zombie apocalypse and also I hope that 2013 will be great for everyone! Keep on drawing and never lose sight of your dreams, big or small, and have fun while you're at it! Thankyou everyone for your support, every view, watch, fav, comment and critique means a LOT to me! ほんとうにありがとうございました!

I want to congratulate the winners in my fanclub's contest:
In first place:


Second:


All the contest entries were a joy to see and the judging was extremely close. Please take a look at the beautiful artworks and we hope to host another contest again!

I've been very 'productive' Only two pages done orz with it!!! As many of you would know, I'll be going off to Japan for two months on monday, and cannot guarantee that I'll be online during that time, since every day is packed full and I don't even know if we can access DA yet. So before I leave, I'm working hard to finish my last commission and also get 1 promo pic for both the artbook and manga out before then!

So far, around 8 illustrations are ready for the artbook, a few of which have never been revealed, and 2 pages for the manga!

Interview


Deviants in Need
:iconblackcatshooter: She is an amazing artist who needs commission money to pay for college, please check out her wonderful art!
The amazing commission she did for me:



I was interviewed by 'today I conversed with......' on tumblr!
Please take a look at the interview to get to know more about me

A little taste of the interview:


Hi Alice! How are you?

Hi everyone! I'm good, thanks >w< Just a little tired from staying up late the last few days…

Can you introduce yourself to our readers?

I'm Alice, a 15 year old manga hobby artist (and otaku). I'm self taught, and began to seriously draw since August 2011.  I'm Chinese, currently living in Australia and my dream is to one day have my own manga and anime! I have a huge passion for drawing and enjoy bringing my visions and imaginations to life. Drawing, reading manga and watching anime takes me to another world and lets me live and be a part of another 'life'- I can go to outer space one day, and into a world of fantasy on another and I want others to be a part of my created world. I do freelance commissions in my spare time ^-^

Sounds good! I already chatted with a Chinese manga illustrator settled in a foreign country. How would you define your being a Chinese girl in a place like Australia?

A Very Late SMASH Recap!

Tue Aug 14, 2012, 6:10 AM
RECAP!!!

I'll be attending Animania in September 22nd-23rd!!!! This time my table name is 'Caramel & Honey' Please come and drop by!!!!!
SMASH 2012 was on Saturday 14th July and I was at table.15 under the name 'Haneiy'! I shared a table with :iconlachuc: and he is an amazing artist! He drew the advertising poster for SMASH, so please take a look at his amazing work!!!

This is my work area at home by the way!


Setup!

Now, let's say, setup early in the morning wasn't the best decision. I didn't know about the velcro-friendly walls, and my helper Eru-Chan spent 30mins with me trying to get the thumbtacks to work. Not a good idea! If I had to sum up setup, it'll be 'hectic'. I was sooo nervous and was frantically spinning in circles in my gothic lolita whilst trying to think straight. Thank goodness Eru was there T^T She is sooo much more organised than me...I dragged a suitcase into the SMASH main hall and the suitcase was very nice and neat. In 5 mins, it was pretty much a mess. Why? I couldn't find my phone! Yay! I spent the rest of my time freaking out and turning my suitcase and bag upside down to find my phone, whilst Eru was calmly pinning up the posters.

"Stallholders, it is 5 minutes to doors opening" When they said that, I was under the table :D With the tabletop being a mess, and not even prepared. Setup took wayy longer than expected and it was really... unorganized on my part. Thank goodness that I got my phone delivered to me though (left it on the car)

Now, one more thing:
This is just a little explanation on how 'Haneiy' came to be!
My first project which motivated me to join DA was 'Project HANE'. Hane means feather in Japanese and I thought that by adding an 'iy' to the end, it might sound like Honey. After one year, this proved to be wrong x3 I've heard people pronounce : han-a-e, ha-ne-nii, hay-nii, hai-nee and every single possible combination possible!

After a lot of confusion, especially at SMASH, when the staff members couldn't pronounce my table name, I thought that I'd clarify this ^-^

My table during setup, when Eru ran off to SBS popasia, and I took a moment to take a photo before going back to clean the mess on the table.

Close up of table when I got some stuff sorted out (the rest of the mess is behind the commission stand xD)

Pinned up posters, I officially HATE thumbtacks!

You don't want to see the mess under the table >w<

Morning

After the hectic setup, I sat on my chair and smiled :) Smiled at customers :) Smiled :) But no one bought anything (there were only a few people anyway due to it being preorder ticket entry and the 1st few minutes of it- but it still felt reaaallly long). I tried to talk but was too shy to, but after a little girl came to buy a badge from me, I started to stand up and smiled more and spoke to people. Business was going well! A got a commission for a sketch of Miku (forgot to take photo) and all morning I had pickups every 1hr for commissions so I was really busy.


- Some of the commissions I did on the day :D

My shared table:)

Me!!! (really bad pic of my face so I had to 'smiley-face' it)

I had people coming and going, and I met :iconwholikesshinythings: and also :iconrainbownote:, :iconsirferrick:, :iconaccelsharp:, :iconsidonie-chan:
I got Eru to get me a sandwich but was too shy to eat it in front of people, but then my lil sis arrived @.@ and she ate my sandwich. I didn't have lunch T^T


Afternoon

The afternoon was so busy, my only time to leave my table was for a bathroom break, I didn't even get to walk around since I had people picking up commissions every 30mins. I did get to do an art trade with :iconwholikesshinythings: for one of her lovely lavender hello kitty rings which I absolutely ADORE!!!
Sold a few cushions, iPhone cases and a lot of Badges :3
I got to chat more with ~rainbownote and showed her a few copic tricks, and Dragonfly came as my 2nd helper and Eru got a chance to go around. I bribed Eru to take my lil sis around xD Since she was bugging me when I was trying to juggle 3 commissions.



After SMASH

Packing up was a lot less stressful, but even messier than setup, since I just threw everything into the suitcase. Bad idea. I had thumbtacks everywhere at the bottom.....

The pretty table after packing up
To celebrate, I had Korean BBQ with my family. It was sooo awkward walking into the restaurant with my lil sis, since we were both in lolita (I was in classic, she was in maid) and everyone just stared at us 0.0

Overall, SMASH was amazing!!!!! I got a beautiful cake necklace and ring from *Wholikesshinythings, 3 prints from Alice Overture and also got to meet my watchers and also strangers!!! Talking with people and selling my works was a great experience and I can't wait until Animania!

Wisdom Crieth Without Issue #3
Wisdom Crieth Without Issue #3 Hosted by

I'm still drawing!!! I've been working frantically to make several deadlines in the last few weeks, including an iOS game which is due to be released in the next few months. Please do keep an eye out for my journals for updates regarding this!!! *I made sprite frames for one of the characters* and it's a male too!!! >3< *never seen before Alice-style males*

The above piece is a commission done for WisdomCriethWithout, a wonderful website dedicated to traditional poetry and art. I was commissioned this piece as an illustration for the poem 'The Fish, The Sea, and Me" and it was a very fun experience drawing a young lady in profile :) The artwork will only be seen on that website for the next 2 months so please do pay a visit to support the magazine as well as to support me >//<

I'm still working on more prints that won't be released until the day of SMASH!!! However, all artworks in my gallery are open for print orders of all different sizes (besides commissions) so please do note me to get Preorder Rates!!!

Also, a little perk for my dear watchers, thankyou so much for all your support! I will be livestreaming on Saturday 7:30-9:00 AM (GMT +10:00 time- Brisbane, Sydney etc.) so please do come and watch! I'll be streaming commissions then!

~Alice!!!!

FAQ

(please feel free to ask any questions and I'll be more than happy to answer them)

Q: How old are you?:
A: I'm 16 :)

Q:When did you start drawing/How long have you been drawing?
A:I guess there isn't a definite answer for this question, I've been like any other child, drawing since a young age but having better priorities such as TV and playing outdoors. I was introduced to the manga style in yr 4 but never really drew until August 2011 when I got SAI and found my passion for art <3 So I guess I've only started seriously drawing since then and so probably for 1 year now (CG and drawing in general) and I'm self taught.

Q: What are your tools of the trade?
A: I work with Paint Tool SAI as well as PS for touchups and a Wacom Bamboo tablet

Q: Can you teach me to draw ______ ?
A: I personally don't find myself to be a great teacher in terms of tutorials but I'd be more than happy to show how I personally do things on livestream :) So let me know and I'll try to explain to the best of my ability. Please understand that drawing and art itself is opinion based though, so it is only my way of drawing.

Q: When do you stream?
A: I stream on random days due to school work so it's hard to predict when I'll stream.

Q: What are your most common tools?
A: I adjust the tools I use as I draw so I usually don't have a set persistence, blending etc. for each tool. I usually use watercolour, brush and rarely pencil but if you'd like to know the settings for a tool whilst I draw on livestream, please feel free to ask and I'll be more than happy to tell you the settings :heart:

Q: What do you draw/not draw?
A: I love to draw moe girls as well as chibis. I'm a fan of touhou and vocaloid as well as being overly in love with my OCs. I don't draw anything MA15+ *I'm only 15 xD* as well as anything mecha, robotic, bulky or realistic humans. I'm currently working on robotic related characters and males so I hope to release some of my art of them soon! I won't draw anything I personally believe is against my morals/ unethical ie: animal cruelty/mistreatment

Q:What are you working on right now?
A: Besides commissions and prints for conventions, I also do a lot of personal art and trying to draw black and white manga pages (and....boys xD). I have yet to launch any projects but hopefully Project:HANE will resume before the end of 2012.

Q:What are your goals/dreams?
A: I have a lot, in terms of art, but currently, the ones I hope to achieve in the next 2-3 years is:
-To become a manga artist

-To draw everyday :3
-To have a table at the Artist Alley - This is came true at SMASH 14th July 2012!!!

:star:Wise quote from me: "Life is like cooking. We experiment with different ingredients and styles. We make good and bad dishes. Some dishes are bitter, some are sweet. But what's really important is that we cook for the ones we love and we enjoy and live every moment to its fullest :heart:"~Alice Haneiy

HELP! (resolved)

Wed Apr 11, 2012, 9:46 PM
EDIT: The problem's solved :) I've decided on the single sided since it won the polls and would save me a lot of trouble. They look beautiful and when I get back to Australia, I'll officially open merchandise preorders. I haven't been flooding your inboxes lately since I'm really busy with RL (I rarely get the chance to touch my computer). When I find the time, I'm working on commissions as well as personal projects and OC development.

Updates:

SMASH: I'm still waiting for their reply regarding my table and I'm crossing my fingers! I was very early with the applications though so I hope that I get a spot. I'm also going to sell copic ACEOs on the day so I'm going to keep drawing!!! I might take a few on the spot commissions to keep myself busy. The vocaloids will be one of my priorities as well as touhou in terms of prints and other things to sell on the day.

Merchandise: I have just recieved my pillows, buttons, iphone cases and other merchandise which I'm really happy about. The stickers would have to be put on hold until I draw more designs (since it needs to be in bulks for printing). However, the sticker designs are made into buttons and I'll take some photos when I get back and I'll post it up on DA for preorders and pickups on the day of the con.

Currently contemplating about what I should wear on the day of the con. School uniform or gothic lolita?</u>

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've encounterd a little problem with my lil bookmarks. I ordered for double sided but the manufacturers misunderstood the order and gave me single sided. I've informed them regarding this and they offered to take the order back and remake. However, this would take quite some time and will cause inconveniences whilst I'm overseas.

I have yet to decide on whether to take their offer or to stick with the single sides and to get a partial refund and possibly some other merchandise from their factory.

Please vote on my poll and let me know what you think!

Double sided:
~artist's signature (if wanted) will have to go over the pic and no doodle will be given
~no other pros other than having it being double sided

Single sided:
~Artists' signature (if wanted) and doodle will go on the blank side and will be a lot more organised
~Only a single side is printed and thus blank on the other side (except for the doodle+siggy which will take up half a bookmark)

If you were to buy the bookmark, will it make a lot of difference to you?

Thankyou so much for the help!!!
An update in regards to SMASH
~Bookmarks
~Buttons
~Pillows
~On the spot pencil commissions and possibly copic
~Prints
~Lucky draw at 12PM and 3PM for free goodies
~Note me if you'd like to buy anything
~For previous commissioners, note me if you're coming to SMASH and would like a discount coupon!

The Chinese Tradition!

Sun Dec 4, 2011, 3:03 AM
Happy Chinese New Year!!!!!!!!!

I'll be doing a little thing on CNY traditions!

:star:Chinese New Year's Eve- preparations

This year is the year of the dragon. In Chinese traditions, CNY marks the beginning of Spring and on the day before CNY, families would gather together for a big feast. It's unusual for people to be at work on this day since they should be at home with grandparents/parents to prepare for the evening feast.

On the dinner table, there are usually fish dishes (the word for fish- 鱼 (yu) sounds like 余(yu) which means surplus. By eating fish, you are praying that you will have surplus for the next year-年年有余- which is a tradition passed down for years when most people were farmers and prayed that they will have extras to eat the next year.

At night, we usually set special paper alight to remember our ancestors and those who have left us and to send 'money' to them to spend in heaven. We'd also paste words on the doors - luck (福)as well as poetic couplets-(对联). We'd also paste chinese paper art on windows, doors and windows. It's a MUST that you clean your house xD

At 8:00, the chinese new year celebration begins on CCTV with various beautiful works such as singing, magic shows, dances and acting!

:star:The 1st day of the new year (初一)

Usually, on the 1st day, we'd wear new clothes and go to families' homes to greet them for the new year. Younger members go to elders' homes and bring gifts :) Today is the 1st.

I've been spamming your inboxes lately xD Sorry about that! I'll try to limit my submissions :3 Since I don't have much to do lately, I've been dedicating more time to drawing and thus have finished quite a few pieces quickly.

This is my HCNY Piece-


And I must say I love my recent piece <3

Feature ~ People with potential
I think that I should expose people that show potential in their works, not only those who are accomplished. Here they are!

:icondinobotloki:
Unnamed Drabble
Merethe stepped onto the balcony with a soft sigh, breathing deeply and inhaling whatever new scent she thought that she might find. Behind her, the darkness of her bedroom was alive, moving like slimy black tentacles. They reached out, wrapping around her ankles in a caress, maybe even a loving embrace.

Just as quickly though, they slipped back inside, melting into the bare shadows of her furniture.

She closed her eyes, fingers moving in time to some unheard beat, maybe that of a musician from some far off land, or one of the many people being slaughtered below. She honestly did not care. To her, it was something to do as she waited, silen

This artist has beautiful works of intricate craftwork and wonderful writing pieces.

:iconjensweetart:

Jen has beautiful pieces of anime work. In the last month, she has made amazing progress in her style, anatomy and colouring and she definitely shows potential in her artworks! Her style is very sweet and I look forward to seeing her improvement!

:iconrainbownote:

Raine is also another wonderful artist who puts effort in her work. She expresses character's personalities well through their poses in her artworks. I'm sure that with some polishing in anatomy, colouring and some basics in art, she'll be doing very well!

:new:Hi everyone, I am considering going to the SMASH manga/anime convention next year in Sydney and having my own table to sell things! I have a few questions which I'd like to ask you

Everyone who fills in the below form will have their name put into a hat and 1 chibi copic/digital request (depending on availability of supplies) will be given to the winner. Ends 25th December

:star:1. Are my works convention standard?

:star:2. Please vote on the poll on my profile to help me get a grasp of what is popular

:star:3. What are your fav characters which you'd like to buy a print of? (female character suggestions preferred)

:star:4. Would you buy umbrellas, pillows and t-shirts with anime/manga drawings on them? and how much would you pay?

:star:5. How much would you pay for a print? (A3)

:star:6. Would you pay for a on-the-spot commission from me and what is the max amount of time you'd wait for a copic chibi commission?
e.g.

:star:7. Would you come to find me at my table?

:star:8. What else is popular at conventions/ what do you like or want?

:star:9. Do any of you know if we have to pay money to book a table and whether it's good to book a table with another artist or by myself?

:star:10. Any extra tips for me to survive the con?

Thankyou so much for all your help :D


If I do go, I'd love to see you all at the convention!

BottleCap Magnets! EDIT!!!!! Please read!!!!!

Journal Entry: Sun Oct 9, 2011, 12:46 AM



EDIT (30-5-12)
I was notified by anonymous that they paid and bought a few magnets but have never recieved them after a few months. Apparently they have contacted the shop on etsy numerous times and have never recieved a reply and thus the shop was reported and closed. After hearing this, I tried contacting bottlecap punch, whom I signed a contract with in regards to using my art. However they never replied as well.

This shocked me and as my first signed contract *in my life, in fact* this was not a good experience. I thought that I'd notify people regarding this issue and please report to me if you see anyone selling my art anywhere *besides myself, ofcourse*.

I'm also trying to contact other artists who have signed contracts with BottleCap Punch and let them know regarding this issue.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
:party:Hello to visitors, watchers and friends, many of my works have been made into bottlecap magnets by BottleCap Punch and will be sold on etsy. A large portion of the profits will be donated to charity/church and I would really appreciate it if you could purchase some magnets.

"Each magnet is made of amazing artwork covered with Epoxy in a flattened bottle cap with a rare Earth neodymium magnet on the backs! At the same time as you are receiving amazingly beautiful magnets - you are also supporting a community of artists, SHOWING them that their work is just as beautiful as we see it!"- Quoted from the shop

:bulletgreen:Each magnet is $3 each (Price does not include shipping but the more you order, less shipping will be charged)

If you have any questions, please note me or contact the owner of the Etsy Shop.

The rest of the profits made will go towards a new goal of buying some watercolour materials for future traditional works.

My works:

It would be really helpful if you could buy some but if you cannot, please post this information on your journal to spread the word. Please also check my commissions information located here: [link] and remember that every commission/bottlecap magnet you purchase not only goes towards a great artwork/magnet but also to a great cause. Thankyou so much for reading this!

What Art means to me

Art to me is an expression of emotions, events, feelings and words. As sayings go "a picture is worth a thousand words" but what's more, an artwork which was created from the heart is priceless. This idea is what I hold in every artwork I do. I pour my heart and soul into each artwork to do my absolute best.

No art is 'complete' (as I've learnt from my art teacher). Every single piece of artwork can never be perfected; there will always be flaws within an artwork. Even a photo is never flawless. All artworks can be improved; there is nothing such as perfection in the art world. Even Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa has flaws but every change you make will help you learn from your mistakes and bring you one step closer to your goal. If you've made a change but it looks worse, congratulations, you're gained experience on what you shouldn't do. When I look back to works I have done a year ago, a month ago, a day ago, a second ago, I always find that I can improve it somehow.

Art can't be classified as 'bad art' nor is anything not art. Sure, people's skills and levels in art differ but as long as each artwork holds emotions, a thought or a feeling, even a stick figure is art. Don't classify anyone as 'someone who can never be an artist', who knows, the person you see as 'bad' now, could be 'good' in the future. If you believe that what you have created is art, then so it is.

Don't ever think 'I'll never be good at drawing'. Rome wasn't built in a day, neither were artists. There is always room to complain but there's more room to improve. If you think you're bad, practice! There is no one, ever, in the world, with no artistic talent. Can you draw a stick-figure? Yes.Can you write/make strokes on any medium? Yes. You're an artist. Practice makes perfect but put your heart in everything you draw. If you draw stick figures everyday but half heartedly, you won't learn from your mistakes. As a Chinese saying goes, "failure is the mother of success" (失败乃成功之母).

What I love about art is that an artwork can change a person's life. No matter if it's literacy, paintings or other forms of art, they all change something within you. A brush stroke can tell a story. Even stick figures do! Look back to things you have done in the past and you'll see how much you have improved. That is why you should never throw away art. They tell a personal tale, that only you will understand, about the progress you have made in life.

p.s. this article is written from a personal point of view and focuses mainly on drawings/literature. Other forms of work are art as well but I feel that I can relate to these 2 forms more. If you have more thoughts on what art is, feel free to drop me a note :D
