My Background
As far back as I can recall, I have been an Artist! During my school time I would constantly be doodling. At home, I would color, draw, paint, or do anything art related. Off and on for years I would focus on improving myself. I even posted some of my works online! Two sites I used to post on semi-actively; theotaku.com and deviantart.com. Eventually I even began making art digitally and it has just about become my preferred medium. Unfortunately, I ended up sliding my art to the side while I focused on work. Although art never left my core as can be seen with my initial posts on Twitter and Instagram.
I decided to make a change just before the new year 2020. I wanted to better myself and become a professional artist full-time over the hobby I had relegated it to. This year has not only been my most active but my most improved! Not only am I ecstatic with where I am and I am also greatly eager to better myself further. For probably the first time I am even taking commissions! Art is me, literally, my initials art now ART!
My Inspiration
As for my inspiration, I have had multiple influences. From traditional painters like Bob Ross, Thomas Kinkade, etc. To digital artist like Sakimi Chan, Artgerm, and several deviantart artists. Even friends I have made along the way like Rinaran.art and nia_illustration both of whom also post on Instagram!
Of course media has also influenced me, like the Manga and Anime genre from Japan, and the Superhero Comics! Many of these inspired me to not only further my art but also my writing. Soon I hope to even make my own Manga/Comic. It will be a long process but it is worth every second!
My Medium
While I mostly prefer to work in a digital facet, I do actually work in multiple mediums! I sketch and do pencil works. I paint with acrylic, oils, and watercolors, albeit I have a lot to learn here. There are times when I sculpt with clay and would love to take up woodworking. Even graphic design is something I dabble in (I am actually taking a course for this now!).
Although some might not consider it 'art', I also write creatively! This helps when working through some of my darker emotions via poetry. All and all, if it is art or creative, I will give it a shot!
