Hey all, so you want to know more about me? Well, I guess I could tell you a little bit about my short life and what's happened so far...
I'm seventeen and I've been drawing since I was little ( I don't really know when :P ). I have been homeschooled my entire life and I am super thankful to have a mother who put up with me for so long... :P. I pretty much teach myself whatever interests me on the side.
I gave up art a few years back because I didn't really have the drive to pursue it anymore; It was a dark phase in my life. Sometimes life just gets to you and you have to give in for a little bit. I took a two year break.
Last year I picked it up again and just attacked it. I was so mad at myself for giving it up. I don't know if you've experienced how frustrating it is to know what you are capable of, and sitting down to draw and it just looks like crap :P
I've had to retrain myself over the last year. I'm still not where I'd like to be ( though I don't think I will ever be. There is always room to improve. no matter who you are. That's the glory of art. It's all about you and your own personal journey. It's the journey that makes this so worthwhile.
I need self expression. It drives me. It pushes and inspires me when I feel bad. It's the ultimate way to just, let go...
Be Love.
