My Bio
Just an ordinary college student and computer geek; I'm a nerd for the Sims 3 and a sucker for Sonic's Happy Hour. I'm set on following the Lord in all ways that glorify Him, but I'm not perfect in the least bit and still look for guidance.

A beginning artist, I really desire to grow better in practice and eventually get to the point where I'm not terrified to look at my own work. Practice, practice, practice. Not just practice, but correct practice!

Favourite genre of music: Soundtracks, classical, and alternate
Favourite photographer: My dad!
Favourite style of art: Traditional/graphic realism

I'm the type of person who can't stand failing; it's a mixture of a pride issue and a self-confidence issue. But after my spasm-induced headache finally went away around noon this afternoon, I realized that my mother, like always, was right. The practices are what I desperately need, especially if I'm striving for realism and

I have decided. It's time to stop fearing the pencil and start learning how to make it my friend. I know it's going to be a really really really really REALLY bumpy road, considering I pretty much all but can't make even decent stick figures at this very moment, but goshdangit, I'm set on trying. Having been given a very sleek and professional graphic tablet for Christmas this year, I'm setting my jaw and having ice ready for my wrist later. My goal is to become good enough that I no longer have to pay for Furcadian portrait artists; bless their souls, they're amazing, but I'm just too broke to pay them! xD; So. Here goes nothing.
