Well, anyhow, I LIKE to think of myself as a professional. I do a lot of graphics design and find myself being a plenty good at drawing though fact is there are probably millions who outskill me -- however, fact is, whatever you do, someone is always bound to do it better. I also like enabling prints for everything I do, and I call that being a douche. I don't usually do requests, but I DO do commissions.
My art varies from traditional work to graphics design and even game sprites. I'm aiming for medschool and plan to also try and become an author in the future, because I'm awesome.
Formerly rocking it on an older account, I revisited that thing after years and saw it was all fucking shit. SO, new account niggas.
I'm not really awesome though, I just like pineapple on pizza.
I don't really, except sometimes.
