I was born and raised in Ottawa, Canada.  I learned to draw from a very early age, but looked at drawing and art as something that I liked doing in my spare time; I actually wasn't all that fond about art class whenever I had to take it.  In fact, I remember taking up an art course in high school and flunkingit miserably (38% for the whole year!) because I really didn't want to be there and hadn't learned anything new...I only took the course because the art teacher bugged me for 4 years into taking an art course.

During high school, one of my oldest furry characters were born: Pantera Atra-u.  During Grade 9, I had known I wanted to create a panther-morph character of some sort, but was usually suck with how she should look like.  While I was taking my exams, I had a few scraps of paper left over, and began doodling, and before I knew it, Pantera was born!  I drew her lots within my high school years and role-played her in many games, but because she was so powerful, many thought of her as more of a god-like level, so I resorted to just drawing her and writing stories about her.

In my college years, I started studying drawings from Animaniacs, Disney's Gargoyles and Sailor Moon.  I would often record the shows and then play them back and pause them at certain parts and try and draw out what I saw on the TV.  I owe alot to the Gargoyles cartoon, because it got me interested in drawing my furries with digigrade legs, and I got a lot of practice with that.

I began officially drawing furries in 1997, when I found out what furries were, by joining a game called Furcadia.  I thought it would be a cool idea to draw my furry friends' characters, so I would draw them out.  My brother and I had a web page a long time ago, called V.O.C's Furcadia Fantastica (VOC standing for "Vulpines of Canada), where I had a very drawings on there, and accepted free requests every so often.

Soon, I got my own FurNation page, and began drawing more furries.  In the meantime, I met a felllow on Furcadia that would become my future husband,
named Trinsic.  We were married in 2000, and I moved to this quiet, beautiful state called Vermont.  I started taking my furry art more seriously, and began selling my art, making prints of it and so on.  We also attend furry conventions along the east coast where I usually set up a table to sell my art.
