I’m a vlogger and a blogger, I have it all!

So, I have a friend called Heather who has been vlogging for a while and I’ve been hesitantly toeing the water for a while on Vimeo by getting people to ask me questions that I answer on my web cam. It wasn’t until I came across the hilarious communitychannel, created by Natalie Tran, that I felt like I could maybe probably start a vlog on You Tube myself. I was initially apprehensive because of all the trolls I see spouting ridiculous things that their mothers should slap them for, but when I had a look at the actual vlogs I saw that the quality of comments rose steeply.

I love everyone who reads my blog here, and so I want to invite you over to You Tube as well… so we can bring our incredible fancitude to the site and push out the trolls by show of force (and fanciness). You can see my profile page here, where you can also subscribe. (And I hope you do!)

The chordae tendineae, or heart strings…

Heart Strings

The chordae tendineae, or heart strings, are cord-like tendons that connect the papillary muscles to the tricuspid valve and the mitral valve in the heart. This is another new illustration, based on a little gesture Nick did the other week. You see, he is quite susceptible to having his heart strings tugged by tv shows, and one evening he did a demonstration of how one would tug on their own heart strings. It was so adorable I had to draw it…

Miss @Makalita liked it so much she bought a canvas print of it and kindly took a photo upon its arrival! It looks great, I’m always impressed with the Red Bubble print quality.
