I
opened this site in 2001, starting with just a few drawings and a
very bad layout. It's since grown into the insane monstrosity before
you today, and it's truly my labor of online love.
I'm still learning new things all the time, as I'm entirely self-taught
at webpage making. This was my first page, other sites followed this.
After Envy.nu got ads, this site (and my other sites) had grown enough
that I decided they warranted their own domain. Thus, Nasubionna.net
was born. I went through a couple of bad hosts, before finally landing
with Dreamhost.com.
They are wonderful, and I've been with them for several years. If
you're looking for a host, I can't recommend them enough.
This continues to be the largest of my sites, due to my intense love
of Harry Potter. I try very, VERY hard to keep all my Harry fanarts
as close to canon (meaning actual book descriptions/scenes, not movie
or fandom) as possible, both out of respect for J.K.'s work, and because
I like them that way! I just try to put on paper what I see in my
head after reading the books, and occasionally I actually get kinda
close.
In May of 2004, J.K. Rowling herself mentioned me by name on her official site. I just about died.
She had had one of my Marauder drawings on her desktop (No, I don't
know which one... sorry! I WISH I knew!), and said I had got Remus
and Sirius particularly accurately. I couldn't have been granted a
higher honor, for the creator of the series I adore and spend so much
time illustrating to have seen my artwork, and not hate it! Not only
that, but Remus and Sirius are two of my my favorites, and to think
that I've drawn them accurately at least once makes me very, very
happy.
So, needless to say, this site will continue to grow and change and
improve as long as the series keeps going, and even beyond.
Thanks to everyone for all the support over the years that have helped
keep this site fun to run!
Since
becoming a full-time volunteer, my income is preeeetty low. Would
you like to help me pay for this site? Any donations are SO appreciated!!
