My dream? To be an artist, and for all the pictures I've drawn on paper to be brought to life before everyone's eyes.
My dream is to work in the video game industry for Square Enix as a character designer and illustrator, concept artist, base story writer, creative producer and eventually work my way up to being a director. I look up to Tetsuya Nomura, who has always inspired me with his work.

In this picture, a gust of wind has flown in from behind me, throwing my sketchbook open and wisking away all the pages inside of it. The pictures on the paper are coming to life and becoming their own living reality.

Each of the people on the pictures are characters that I created. They are all from stories I've made, while one is an orignal character for an existing video game. These are the characters, starting from the top left corner going from left to right:
Imminente Luna Maillon -- Female, Red hair, grey eyes. Series: TBA
Prima Luce Maillon -- Male, Redish-purple hair, gold eyes. Series: TBA
Tsukiko Riku -- Female, Brown hair, green eyes. Series: Kokoro no Senshi
Travis Brea -- Male, Blonde Hair, glasses. Series: Kokoro no Senshi
Mei -- Female, black hair, gold eyes. Series: 'Till the End of Time
Kiru -- Female, blonde hair, green eyes. Series: Kingdom Hearts OC
Elouise Vuhtalie -- Female, brown hair, blue eyes. Series: Shattered Skies
Shift -- Male, Brown hair, sleeping. Series: 'Till the End of Time
Hikou -- Male, Silver hair. Series: 'Till the End of Time
Kairn Valor -- Male, brown hair, green eyes. Series: Shattered Skies

UPDATE: I made the Semi-Finals! YAY!

My submission for the WACOM CONTEST- DREAMS.

For DREAM, I always understood something whimsical made by the destiny. But also magical. A dream can be a place where everything is possible, even a wooden toy prince becoming human, after finding the last remaining piece, a true human heart. And of course, fitting it properly on the chest.

I dream of setting the world on fire (not literally) with art and creativity. I want to use my art to inspire the world like how an conductor or musician uses melody and music. I think this is a common dream shared between many artists, using their lines and colour to create amazing things that speaks to the world~!

Edit&Update:
Today i was notified that this piece has been chosen as 1/25 semi finalist, so thank YOU EVERYBODY for liking this piece of work as well!
I am truly grateful for chance given by Wacom to let the small artists such as myself to have a chance to showcase their work.
I am sure there are countless talented artists out there waiting to be discovered, and i do hope this piece of art speaks for everybody that wish their creativity to be seen and let their voices be heard by the world. Maybe even our little tiny creation would inspired others like a little pebble thrown into water creating circles of ripples, waves that spreads outwards until that one day that even the world knows your name.
And then you'd hear a tiny voice saying "you've made it."

This piece really means alot to me as an artist and i hope you feel the same

I started this drawing a long long time ago i had really no time to finish it so now it's finished! maybe some details need finish it better but any way I'm unloading it! i was really inspired places like Meteora and other amazing places and have really inspired by old castles.
u can see process of drawing here

I really wish u enjoy it!
Thanks

UPDATED
Sooooo....a while back for Christmas my epic boyfriend bought me a Wacom tablet and I've been wanting to use that magic and spice this picture up but have been completely swamped in commissions and other things. But I FINALLY got around to updating this picture...so here you have it.

Here's a before and after comparison

The detail shots have also been updated (see link below)

And I used a texture for the water from cgtextures.com

I dream...
...that more people will grow protective of life rather than destructive towards it...that they will gain more appreciation for life rather than taking it for granted...and that they will treasure life rather than throw it away...

This picture means a lot to me and I really hope it is a dream that many others share as well

I used a texture for the tree bark from [link]
The rest was sketched in pencil, scanned, and then completely repainted in Adobe Photoshop...using...A MOUSE. LOL I definitely need a wacom tablet...

This is reduced to about 15% of the original size, so a lot of detail was lost You can see some detail shots here

For this piece:
As a very uncertain university student, this piece is rather personal to me. I have listed all of my dreams in there, but the light bulb never came on... I could not decide what I want to do with my life, and the next thing I knew, I've wasted almost 2 years of university without knowing what I want to do...

I know I am running out of time as I stay uncertain, and time is slowing corroding my life away. So I suppose, my goal, or my dream, is the ability to light that little light bulb in my head, and perhaps capture one of the goals within my uncertain mind ( and then just go for it!). (the chaotic arrangement of the words are my messy mind orz)

I know many of you will think I am been way to literal with this piece and my goal, but I wanted to forcibly show what I think. Some of you might not realize, just how hard it is to find something I want to do with my future. I have to think about it everyday, it's not a very pleasant thing orz. Not to mention the university want me to decide what I want to do soon. I already have a lot of people telling me they DON'T understand why I could not find something I want to do with my life after university orz....

Even as I am applying to design schools, I am questioning if that's the right thing to do. I love doing art, but science fulfill my curious mind.... but I can only chose one....
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

orz sorry for my pre-exam emo-ness
orz I just realize a lot of pieces entered are about dreams.... maybe I got the theme of this contest wrong.... O well, future aspiration is also a kind of dream.... right?

the person in the pic is me, this is only the second time I did a self-portrait XD, I know it kind of...don't look like me... I wanted to show my abstract mind, so the fonts and everything are in 2D style where as in real life, I drew myself and everything else more solid-like.

Edit: I know my hand looks abit weird, but don't know how to fix it yet...
Photoshop + SAI 50/50

Edit 2: misspelled engineer.... I spelled enginer
Edit 3: misspelled Architect..... I spelled Achitect lol
Edit 4: I should stop fixing it =/
I should this into a "find a wrong word" pic ;D.

Recently it feels like the world has been particularly chaotic. Stress, anxiety, fear, sickness..etc Especially because of the economic recession and whatnot. Personally, family problems, financial issues, and adjusting to my first year of college have been the sources of my personal problems.

Wouldn't it be nice if everyone could just stop, sit down and doodle a bit?

I'd like a doodling session with the world. :] It's quite therapeutic, really. Even those that don't consider themselves artists often find relief in etching stick figures on their notes, agenda, lab paper..etc.

This also relates to my career choice, as I am currently a freshman nursing major. Despite its arduous nature I think its a very rewarding job. It's nurses that directly aid the sick and help them adjust to the clinical environment. They bring relief.

I hope that in the future I can help people in the same way doodling has aided me during times of stress and emotional turbulence.

Morever I think this theme is extremely prevalent to the contest, because digital art allows artists to gather together internationally and deviantart is pretty much the closest thing to 'global doodling' as any site can get + the products wacom provides are great tools for any person interested in digital graphics.

Thank you for reading. :]

Speed Paint couple of hours.
Less details as possible good contrast and good lighting as possible, that's my rule.
