Valarie contributed Sell Your Soul to the Silkyn catalog. She’s worked as a digital artist since she set aside more traditional media and began creating images in Photoshop. Her background in art and writing naturally brought her to the world of 3–D graphics and character creation, and eventually into the world of comic books, with her work on the webcomic The Agents – LOC. She is happiest working as a freelance artist and prides herself in creating characters that bring to life the vision of her clients. Valarie lives and works in Western NY. More of her art can be viewed on her website: Firebug Arts and purchased through her main gallery and store on Deviant Art.
