My fav stuff to write or draw: pretty boys, pretty girls, animals, fantasy creatures, chibis and other cutesy things
What inspires me to make comics: The winning combination of writing, drawing, and storytelling. Comics are, for me, the perfect medium.
Why are you in the BHC: Accountability and community. Group projects are fun, too.
My artistic new years resolution: What else? Draw more! Specifically, I'd like to be building a better portfolio of work to show potential clients, as well as getting a solid start on my webcomic.
Favorite part of the artistic process: I love all of it, but I think I especially like holding a finished piece in my hand and saying, "I did this thing."
Hogwarts House: Ravenclaw, all the way.
Bloodtype: A+
Astrological Sign: Aquarius
Samples of recent art:
I think I first ran into FTLY at the very beginning and lost touch with it. I found it again today and was so sad to see your last update is from 2006. I'm glad to see you are still active on the web and artistically and I'm looking forward to reading more from you.
