Give Core MembershipMany of you will know Sophie :iconSophquest:, especially if you are a fractal artist, since of course, she is our Gallery Director in that sphere. I have personally found her to be an amazing and very inspirational person, and have known her for most of the time I've been here at dA.
For Lupus Month, she has carried out a very touching and full interview with me, and without any more by way of introduction, I will go straight into that.
Interview with Sophquest
How long have you been doing art and who or what got you started?
I use to draw quite a bit when I was a teenager. I would draw pictures of strong futuristic warrior women, but never thought I would come to love creating art, the way I do now. In the Spring of 2006, after a difficult appointment with one of my 8 doctors at the time… I came onto deviantART and found fractals.
Do you have any other family members who are artists of any sort?
I do. I have many musicians

AnnaKirsten's Terrific Tuesday 30 Sept 08
Having been out of action for a while due to vacation of my body and soul from my place of residence for a delicious holiday, this week I have gathered up some goodies from my favourites during September and hope you will enjoy them. I do not discriminate between highly favourited images and those that only get a few favourites, for the simple reason that I think it sometimes serves well for people to see how well they all blend in, and all deserve the best of attention in any case.
Here we go then, with a smattering of digital and traditional intermingled...

You placed a beautiful mark on DA with your art and I hope you are happy in the sky above with the legends and continuing with your art till this very day rest in peace 
I just found your page, and I must say that your work is absolutely beautiful.
I never got to meet you or speak to you, but I'm shocked and saddened that you're no longer here. Like another artist has stated, your beauty lives on in your work. Rest in peace, dear. 
your beauty lives on, in the art you have here and in the hearts of those whose love knows no limits. travel on my friend.
