site of the month;

MONTH :: October
WHO :: Katie @ Midnight Tears

AWARD ::

 WHY? :: A while back, Katie mentioned opening her own community on LJ.  A place to house her art, icons and all things fannish.  Mine had been lying dormant for a while so I thought hell, why not breathe new life into it..

So, I invited Katie.  We'd been affilliates on here for a good couple of years, I'd looked through her art so many times; to snag new wallpapers for my desktop but more often than that?  For inspiration.

Katie's artwork has always had something.  From her use of gradients, to her simple use of placement, text and screencaps.  What I love about her art is that it's simple-pretty.  It's never overthought, her art just sort of speaks for itself, really - there's not a thousand and one textures overlaying it (something I'm guilty of, LOL) it's all about the screencaps and the text and the amazing use of colour.  :)

Katie's is the one site that I visit most often and the one site I kinda wish I could steal for my own, LOL.
