The lovely template of this ID is from la Pure' fashion catalogue. La Pure is a clothing brand that I did a photoshoot for. There will be photos later~
People are curious by nature so if you want to know more about me, I don't mind giving more information~
My name is LiFen. Zhen is my middle name given by my Grandmother. Weimin is my family name.
I use the name Artimis as my professional name because I'm a freelance model in Taiwan and Artimis is a lot easier for Chinese to pronounce.
I was born in Nanning, China. When I was 14, I went to Japan and completed my secondary school education and pre-university education. Now I'm back in China, finishing university studies in Fashion. While I don't really draw or design clothes (because my art sucks), I want to look into careers along the lines of fashion coordinator or image consultant next time. My favorite styles are Japanese and Korean street fashion.
I'm also a freelance model. I usually model for Taiwanese in-house fashion brands like V.Jeni, Yoyogi, Choya, la Pure, Misia, Miss Fi etc... If you frequent Taiwan yahoo auctions for ladies' wear, you'll probably see my face quite often!
I love fashion, shopping and beauty obviously. I also like movies, manga, music, food and Japanese culture.
and here are some other questions I've been asked repeatedly, so I'll answer them here~
Q. How much are you paid for a shoot / How much do you earn?
A. Sorry but I can't answer this. It's a commercial secret! Not enough for me to be rich, that's for sure~
Q. Can I watch you?
A. Of course! No need to ask. Thank you~
Q. Do you speak Taiwanese?
A. Naw I don't :( I speak Chinese and English and a teeny little bit of Japanese.
Q. Do you have msn/yahoo/any messenger?
A. Yes but I don't use them often. Just send me a note if you want to talk ^^
Q. Can I add you on facebook?
A. Sure ^^

People keep asking about using my photos for references. So I'll put my answers here:
Q. Can I draw you?
A. Sure, I love it when people draw me. If you are doing direct referencing from a photo, you need to leave a link back to the original photo. If you are just referencing a pose, no credit or permission needed. A pose is not copyrighted! ^^ If you are just referencing my face, no credit needed either, but do show me the final work!
A. Can I draw you as my mascot/original character?
Q. Sorry but I have to say no to this. This is like asking me to endorse something. Official paperwork and model releases will be needed. You can draw me in your own chosen setting, design clothes, hairstyle etc, but no part of your artwork should state that I'm a mascot or your OC.
A. Can I use your pictures for graphics (signatures, avatars, banners etc)?
Q. That's ok if proper credit is given. You have to ask me for permission and you must show me the link to wherever you're posting the graphics. However, I do not allow my photo to be used for Online Role-playing purposes.
If you have any more questions, just comment here! I'll answer it as long as it's not too invasive or weird. Thanks for reading~ :heart:
