I've been drawing and doing art ever since I could hold a pencil. This spurred a desire to constantly create. Since then I've been drawing for hours a day, constantly doodling, sculpting, painting or sketching. My skills have only increased over the years and my dream is to become an animator or a concept artist. I've recently begun taking commissions and have had many customers, some being game developers, companies looking for logos and interested friends.

 

     When I was younger, I drew constantly. Whether it be with crayons, colored pencils, or markers, I was always spilling my ideas onto the paper, clay, and homework assignments, even walls, bathtubs and my own skin. This did not please my parents, however, they still helped me in my art journey. Their encouragement has allowed me to grow my skills and potentially create a career. Without their constant support I doubt I would have been able to progress to where I

am today.

​

     Art has shaped me into the person I am today. It has given me an outlet for stress and creativity which I doubt I could find elsewhere. Whether I am upset, anxious, angry or even happy I can always unwind and relax when I sit down in front of a canvas or screen to shape out my emotions. Having this kind of outlet has also allowed me to see the world from a different perspective. I have grown a love for colors and shapes of the world which I incorporate into my artworks.
