 Joana Vinha Santos is the girl behind the
lioness. Usually people call me Ju or Vi, because it’s the abbreviation
of my middle name Vinha (that, by the way, belongs to my mother, while Santos belongs to my
father).
I’m a 20 (born in 18th
July 1988) years old girl, living in Portugal,
Coimbra, with my mother and my brother,
also with two cats (Chita
and Mingau) and one dog (Mourice)
as a pet.
I am University student of
Veterinary, though I’d give up everything if someone offered me a job in
the cartoonist/artistic sector. Though I love animals and I’m sure I’ll
do my best to be a good veterinary :) After the vet’s course, I’m
thinking about trying to go to Africa
for research about a specific animal (doesn’t really matter which, since
I love any kind of animals).
I draw since 2001, though
I already had some artistic vein in elementary school. The Lion King 2
was the one movie that actually made me come out and draw more. I’ve
learned all by myself, no help from anyone, besides the books I bough and
the images I tried hard to copy. I can’t say I do much besides drawing,
though I’d love one day try to create clothing with a friend of mine (who
actually understand some of those fashion stuff).
Now, I’ve chosen lioness
as my Fursona. Of course I could have chosen
others, but Vilani must be a lioness. In part I
created her because I loved The Lion King too much, but also because my
love for lions and big cats is simply huge.
Those animals are big,
strong, kings and queens of Africa. Few
animals amazed me so this much as lions and lionesses still do. Every
time I see a lion, it amazes me even more.
Since I’m little I’ve
imagined me as a big predator, chasing around the house imaginary
antelopes. Maybe because I wanted to be strong and now I kinda feel like it. I have my way; I am not a loner,
though I’m owner of myself; I’m strong enough to speak on my mind, tho I like to help others next to me. I can’t really
explain how much as I look inside like a lioness, but believe me, my
heart is sure that this lioness inside me exists.
That’s my Furry part.
I’ve met Furry after I’ve
created Vilani. I drew her the first time just
for fun, after watching princess Mononoke.
Then, Furry fandom was just a step ahead from me. Also with furry, Anime
came, so I got used to both different but somewhat connected Fandoms.
Sometimes my brain just
stops

Personality: like Vilani, I’m not a romantic one,
though I can also be very deep with my feelings. I tend to be aggressive
when someone acts all lovely-dove with me, but then, I also can say many
deep things to others. I think that love is one of the main reasons why
people can be stupid, so I tend never to talk about it.
I dislike being kissed and
hugged all the time, since I feel like a bird ready to fly away. But I
don’t dislike walking holding hands together for example.
Also, I’m not jealous type
in front of others; though I can be really jealous inside, especially
when it comes about the one I love (friends or lovers).
I love shopping, where
I’ll probably find enough choices for my originality: my clothing style
is a mix of trends and fashion style. I love creativity and originality,
there for I try my best to be different.
I don’t believe in luck or
destiny. Though I believe that my way is written by myself, with no
god(s).
I can be very harsh when
it comes to say things. Very open-minded, but also earth-to-earth, I say
whatever is on my mind whenever I am asked to or when something is
bothering me.
