  • An IF hookup!

    A few days ago I got an email from Kris and her boyfriend Steve who collaborated on a monster for my Monster Mash contest (still happening, if you want to contribute!)… Their monster totally rocked, btw. Anyway, they mentioned that I might find this little tidbit interesting:

    They met through Illustration Friday!

    Turns out he commented on one of her entries and that started an email dialog that turned into phone conversation and then they met in person. And they’ve been dating two years now! She’s even moving to the US to be with him.

    I just thought that was too awesome and had to share it here! This is the first (I think, are there more of you?) IF hookup! hee!

    Congrats to Kris and Steve! (They even sent a cute pic for the blog. :) )

    LOL! Oh man, am I red right now! Thanks for all you do Penelope. Sometimes I take it for granted, but I.F. is definitely one of the coolest things to happen on the web. Keep up the fantastic work!

    Holy cow! That’s crazy awesome! I had no idea, way to go you guys. Penelope, you should advertise IF like they do for e-harmony or match. I don’t think there’s a site out there that caters to finding an “artistic” match. That would be great!
