Orphaned and abandoned at an early age, PixelFish was raised in the wild Louisiana bayou by a family of lovable crocodiles. Swinging from tree to tree, and battling giant leeches singlehandedly, she soon grew to be a legend in the swamps of the South and was known to friend and foe alike as Crocodile Girl!!!!! Only the crocodiles called her by the name they gave her at the Cajun Crocodile Council -- Hors D'oeuvre.
Um. Wait. You want facts. Silly me.
I was actually born and raised in Utah. I am currently a visitor in the wonderful nation of Canada where I do my best to raise to the poutine consumed per capita ratio. I was doomed to be an artist from the day my kindergarten teacher made a report that "Elizabeth can't seem to colour within the lines; her hand-eye co-ordination is lacking, and her sense of shape and colour is dubious." Okay, they didn't say it exactly like that, but that's what it boiled down to. Needless to say, I've enjoyed proving that early report wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong, brimming with wrongability.
