iamtcecille-deactivated20110904 asked: Hi Ms. Val! I'm one of the regulars in your online account but I've just been a fan recently. I just want you to know that I idolize you so much, for your distinct and exquisite style in your works. How do you manage to have such originality? As a struggling artist, I find inspiration through other works, but can't seem to find my own pace. What could be your best advice? Thank you.

accidentalencounters asked: Hi Val,

I can't believe you're a self taught illustrator! That's brilliant and I'm in awe. Wish I was as talented in drawing :)

Love your tumblr too. esp your 'labels' section on the side bar. :)
