I also like to watch and collect anime on DVD (and all kinds of anime merchandise, specially anime art books! ^_^;;), I like to play videogames, cooking and baking, creating sculptures, creating animations, dancing, skating, playing with photoshop, growing roses, looking for good sushi restaurants XD and collecting comic books.

~Cool! Hey, do you do art commissions?
>Sofi: Yeah! All the time! A lot of my fanboys and fangirls have me create commissioned art for them. They tell me exactly what they like and I draw it just like that for them! ^_^;; The best part is seeing their expressions when I hand them the finished piece of artwork! :) I love doing commissioned art because it is a fun challenge! And knowing that it makes my fans happy is even better! =) Hey, if anybody wants a special piece of commissioned art made by yours truly, please email me! I'd be most happy to create a piece of art for you!
~Yay! And last, before we start ranting, do you have any advice for your fans?
>Sofi: Sure! My dear fans, always stay happy and positive! To all of you who want to become an artist or animator, never give up. Always be persistent. Practice every chance you can. Nourish your creativity and imagination...Always ask questions, you will find the knowledge you seek. Always share the knowledge, that way everyone can grow and benefit from it. Always think teamwork! Get together with friends who share the same passions and you'll see how fast everyone improves! ^__^
