I'm in my 30's, I have two kids.
I've previously been a professional 3D artist, although now I work at home and do the mom-thing. I worked for Sony Computer Entertainment for 8 years, and worked on five published titles, including several Syphon Filter games, a Resistance game and an Uncharted game.
Mostly, my contribution to the nets is made up of tutorials. I started making drawing tutorials back in highschool, when I honestly had no business instructing anyone of anything. Now, mostly I make 3d tutorials. Most of them are here on my DA page.

I was recently signing up as a tutor for an online course (Code in Place - look it up, it's great!) and thought of the first time I learned something from a random person online. It was about 25 years ago, I was a high school kid who frequented Athey's website and drawing tutorials. It occurs to me that I never reached out to her or properly thanked her: her tutorials changed my approach to drawing, and I credit any ability I have to her.
Athey, thank you for your "How to draw" figures tutorials! It was so long ago, but filling out my application form and reflecting on my experiences with online learning, I think of you as one of its pioneers. We've never met, but you helped me take my drawing to a new level, and as I get ready to help folks learn to code in a huge online learning project by a big university, my thoughts go to you!
Hope you are well,
Maggie
I found my old baka-neko drawing tutorial CD in a drawer from 50000 years ago and it led me back here. Your work was genuinely formative for me way back then and just wanted to stop by to say thank you for being part of that truly insane era of the internet :)
Happy I found you again!

Thanks for the favorite on Doctor Newt!
