It's Not What it is but Who it is

Over the past couple of years I have been admiring a particular artist I found on the internet. She can be found on deviantart by the username of Ruin-HCI, with a collection of commissioned chibis, her own original characters in Mori Girl and Lolita fashion, and other miscellaneous art. From what information she has given us in her journals, we can conclude that she is currently a college student who "loyally serves our chicken overlords".

that's all and that's right
"Frowny-Ruin-standing-while-looking-off-to-the-side #4353
Hey lines, haven't seen you in awhile.
Haha watching me must be like watching like three different people.
[...]Ruin's hair is like a giant tumbleweed here, haha. In reality I imagine she takes very good care of it though, since she can't cut it.[...]" 

rabbit hearted girl
"I feel bad for uploading so many boring pictures, haha. Getting finalized versions of my jerkfaces is one of those things I really want/need to get done though. This is part of some ref sheet I'll (hopefully) finish sooner or later, because people always tell me missusRuin is really difficult to draw lol. (so if you want to know anything about her, ask here) I think it's really because I change how she looks every other picture, so for now we'll just call this the "this is how she looks" one. CHANGE IS A GOOD THING GUIZE; character development and whatnot. And my colour schemes get less and less horrid.[...]"
 
if I call don't make a fuss
"Just a Paprika to look active. I've been into this style kick, as well as lineless colourings.
I was unsure about how to go about her eyes, since they're pretty weird. (see here) In the end I left out the pupil because it just looked freaking terrifying with them, hahaha.
Designing her outfit was fun. I was almost positive that I'd change the colours, but I ended up keeping them. I guess mint suits her.
I might do one for her sister later.[...]"

"Trying not to use lines is awesome for editing and doing things like hair where I hate planing out every line,
but sucks for definition. :I Especially since I'm a detail fiend.
Tried to limit colours, too.[...]"

give some means to the meanings
 "[...]My backgrounds and poses are so exciting.
At least I'm okay with his colourscheme.
I'll try to draw more interesting things. ;;;;;;
[...]"

There are even prettier artworks on her page that I unfortunately couldn't post, so I highly suggest you check her gallery out or follow her on deviantArt if you have an account!
