Q : How have you gravitated toward visual art?

A : My interest in visual arts started to get a serious edge when I was in my pre-teens. I loved watching hand drawn animation and read story’s with beautiful and endearing illustration to accompany them. I wanted to create these story’s for myself and present them to people in the hopes of them being moved by my creations.

Q : What is your favourite Medium to work in?

A : My favorite medium to work in would be Photoshop CS6, although I do also like working traditionally with pencils and plain paper and I occasionally love to do acrylic painting too. I usually begin with drawing on paper to get myself warmed up with a few sketches here and there, for finished pieces I always end in in Photoshop though.

Q : Whats your least favourite color?

A : I don’t have a least favorite color, all colors that exist make up the world as it is right now and I think it can’t be more beautiful. I think, as an artist, if you have a least favorite color is just means that you don’t have control over that color yet.

Q : Educated or Self-Taught?

A : I am an Animation student inside an Art College, I learn the principles of animation and production there. My drawing skills however have always come from myself and the late hours I’ve put into this to get better every day. Even before I attended art school I would spend many hours of my days on my computer drawing program or in my sketch notebook.

Q : What is your hope for your work?

A : My biggest hope for my work and as being an Artist would be to keep doing what I love and that one day people will appreciate me and my work!
