Howdy everyone,
I'm actually from Alberta but I am moving to Kelowna in a week's time! I just accepted a new job there so I am in the moving process as we speak (yaayyy packing....)

But I thought I would introduce myself and see if there are any other furs/meets/community in Kelowna (and in BC in general). I've lived in Alberta my whole life up until now so moving to a new province is exciting!

So I am an illustrator both by profession and by hobby! I went to ACAD for 4 years and have my bachelor of Visual Communications and Design. While I love drawing anthropomorphic stuff, I love drawing loads of other stuff too. I'm almost always working on something, whether it is actually work related or something for a personal creative project. I'm known to enjoy the odd video game and I love watching movies. Repeatedly. While analyzing them!

I have a dog, a pembroke welsh corgi, named Kanye West who'll be coming to Kelowna with me when I move. When I'm not drawing or working, I'm usually walking or playing with Kanye. He's my little bro.

In terms of the online community, I'm all over the place. I can be found in deviantArt (http://weremagnus.deviantart.com/), FurAffinity (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/weremagnus/) and SoFurry (http://www.sofurry.com/user/view/profile?id=195838) in terms of galleries. I have my own website (http://www.magnusink.ca) as well that profiles my work. I also hang out on SecondLife on occasion and I mess around coding on the old MMO Furcadia as well.

Looking forward to meeting you folks!

Hi! Hmmm your name and FA site seem familiar. I've probably stumbled across you before. I am not in Kelowna, but I think there are a few furs on this site that are!

Hehehe, I am rather certain I watch/have watched you on Deviantart.  I KNOW I remember you from VCL, like... years ago.  When I saw the name "weremagnus" in the introductions, I was like, "Nuh uh..."

Nice to see new faces around here!  I hope you find this place as welcoming and entertaining as I do!  Definitely try to make it out to Vancouver, it's a wonderful city and there are a ton of events happening every month that are furry-related.

And welcome to BC!  Hope you like the mountains. =P

Oh, and it's awesome to see more dragons. *grins*
