Digital Artist and Illustrator

I grew up drawing. I’ve always had a half finished sketchbook laying at hand. Sometimes it got used more than others. Sometimes I’d draw every day, other times I’d go months without picking up a pencil. Occasionally I’d get serious about art and learn about anatomy(finding the Loomis head was a massive milestone in my journey) or try a new medium. Eventually I graduated to a cheap graphics tablet and entered the digital art community. I had an embarrassing Deviant Art account, I tried to follow Bob Ross, and I transferred my traditional skills over to the new digital age. As the years drew on I upgraded my setup, but my skills stagnated. I hit an artistic plateau. And I was okay with that. Until October 2024. That’s when I thought that I’ve put all this time, effort, and money into it and it’s something I love to do so I decided to put my nose to the grindstone and make a deliberate, concerted effort to improve my digital art skills. And here we are.
