Biography:
It's Raining Neon, or DeAnna Davis, is a creative female of the human species from the state of Virginia, USA. She tackles many fields of interest as a cosplayer, makeup artist, model, stylist, animator, illustrator, photographer, costume designer and costume/ prop work fabricator while working towards turning each of them into a career path. But when it's not all work, she's raging over a new game, watching unhealthy amounts of anime, tearing through her favorite comic books or running through the mountains to video game soundtracks to sedate her unusually high amounts of energy.
The origin story: DeAnna started attending conventions in 2008, and in the years since then has been producing costumes, cosplays, fashion attire and prop work under the name It's Raining Neon. To date, DeAnna has made over 100 different costumes, cosplays and fashion attire pieces for herself and others. She has had her work published in the BlazBlue Thank You Project art book, Marvel's Avengers vs. X-Men ad campaigns, online articles on College Humor, Dorkly, Reddit, imgur, Comics Alliance, Kotaku, international sites and more. Her work also appears in cosplay focused showcase novels like Breaking All the Rules; Cosplay and the Art of Self Expression. DeAnna and her work has also participated in many cosplay costume contests, placing in 1st or 2nd in all, and has even been selected as a judge for cosplay contests online.
