I've been drawing since I could hold a crayon. My grandmother is a painter, my mother is a painter and still life artist, and I am a lover of cartoons. I may not be completely walking in the footsteps that have been put down in front of me, but I'm doing what I love. I really couldn't be happier.
Ever since I was young I wanted to work for Disney. It was my big dream to make films or cartoons for the generations to come. I may not be working for Disney, but I'm working hard to get better so that I can get out there and be recognized for my talents.
Throughout my middle and high school days I was always in an art class. They were the only classes I put my full attention into and had top marks in.
In 2008, in my last year of high school I won two awards. The first contest I entered, I won first place out of about 30 other participants from 3 schools, getting me a scholarship to the local college (I never used it though). The second contest (a week later) I won Artist of The Year, sold my piece so that it could be put in the Hall of Fame, and I had my name put on an plaque in the Hall of Fame. It was the biggest moment of my life so far.
Later on, I became a part-time anime teacher for a family friend's kid. It was a great experience for me because when I was in high school I really wanted to become an art teacher for high school kids. I actually, wouldn't mind doing it again, but I don't really know anyone since I moved.
I have a few big projects that I really want to get going on. Those would be Jerimia's World, The Wesley and Scott Show, Bush Buddies, and Smiths of War.
I'm not taking any commissions at the moment since I have a lot on my plate already
