💫 This profile is no longer active – but the memories (and the art) remain! More on the subjects in my journal, rest kept for archive purposes.

So, when people ask me how long I've been drawing, I usually respond with that classic line, "Oh, all my life, I guess!" But I would immediately add that it's not about the length at all. You see, most of my artistic progress happened during those magical moments that wouldn't even add up to a month! It's like I had a temporary art buff. So, if you're just starting on your creative path, don't let people like me discourage you. Trust me; those creative bursts are real game-changers and if you start today you'll definitely experience them soon!

Now, let's talk art. I'm all about fanart here. My superpower? Mixing styles and characters from different universes. You can practically see the crossover chaos in most of my work. Sure, Star Wars often sneaks its way into my creations, but I'm on a (doomed to failure) mission to pay homage to all the other fantastic universes that have graced my life over the years.

Now, here's the kicker: adulting has somehow snuck up on me. Maybe it's because I run not one, but two illustrated blogs. Or maybe it's because I've decided to learn singing and dancing, and I've signed up for more workshops and classes than I can count. Who can say? But even with this crazy schedule, I'm determined to stick to my traditions. Every year I create Mandalorian-themed Easter Eggs, Halloween Pumpkins, and Gingerbread Cookies. I also create two virtual cards each year - one for Valentine’s Day and other for Star Wars Day (May the Fourth). It just feels wrong to give up on those, you know?

So, whether you're here for the fanart, the crossover chaos, or just to share a laugh or two, welcome to my creative corner. Let's have some artistic fun, because who says adults can't have their cake (or gingerbread cookies) and draw it too?
