My Bio

I am a self taught disabled artist, making art has been my distraction through chronic illness and although I work a lot slower than everyone else I am still very passionate and motivated about making art and work as hard as my body will let me.  I've been too ill to attend any type of schooling or work, so Ive relied on teachig myself, experimenting with different mediums and online tutorials, which are extremely helpful !



My health gets in the way a lot so I can't always do the art I want to and I take a while to get it done, but it's something I can actually do, at least, so I intend to keep putting as much effort into it as possible no matter how long it takes!



As I am vegan, I hope to be able to use my art in some way in activism, currently I am making vegan felt animal sculptures for The Sheep Sanctuary to sell to raise money for the sanctuary.

All my my artwork is made me animal free products, I have a list of what art materialsI use at my kit.co account, linked below.



I really appreciate anyone checking out my gallery, here is a list of the other places you can find me online! Peace

I used to make a lot more fanart, unfortunately I don't get the time so much anymore due to health limitations however I still enjoy making fanart and hope to do so again in future but I am focusing my time on making original art as much as possible.  My interests and inspiration come from: nature, animals, activism, steampunk, music,other artists, conservation and veganism, fantasy and sci fi, mythology, the supernatural and paranormal,  learning new skills, being in the forest and being outside at night. Oh and Fungi.



There are lots of other things I'd love to do that my health doesn't allow such as woodwork,carving, metalwork/blacksmithing, sculpture and pottery, writing stories and making comics, martial arts, rock climbing, scuba diving, cosplay and prop building, travelling, volunteering, learning instruments, campaigning and activism, learning new languages, sports and actually having a job(!) to name a few.

I'm really looking for some feedback, would any of my followers be interested if I offered some commissions for digital art of your oc's etc in future? What price range do you usually expect to pay for commissioned artwork (e.g One character)? What factors about an artist's artwork make you more inclined to choose them for commissioned art? Thanks for reading and giving your thoughts!

My old Wacom Cintiq 13 is in need of replacing and I'm looking for some advice! Please let me know your thoughts and recommendations for a new drawing tablet, I am looking at Wacom and Huion as they are the main brands I know of. I want something that's an upgrade but I can't afford the best models. I appreciate your advice! (If you have any experience with Huion's customer service to share, that would be helpful too! Im in the UK and I'm not sure how great their support is as I've read mixed reviews). #digitalart #drawingtablet #pendisplay #artsupplies #digitalarthelp #artrecommendation #huion #wacom #artadvice
