Hello Friends!
After an unnecessarily unexpected hiatus in which I fell off the face of the planet and accomplished quite possibly nothing in my artistic ventures (okay, well maybe a couple things), I'm back! Following a lovely exchange of interests with my new roomie, I have been once again inspired to stop living under physics textbook, and see the vibrant dazzling world I could be illustrating. So now, rather than existing day to day with only doodles in my notebook margins, I have decided to make the actual effort to pull out the sketchbook again, and be a real artist.
So watch out world! Because I have dozens of Deviations to throw out on here in the next few weeks. (some of which will not be very good, because I will be uploading everything from 9th grade onwards). =u=

Digital Coloring Advice!
I am embarking on the treacherous journey from sketchbook to photoshop, and coloring seems to be taking FOREVER. For all you digital artists out there: is there any advice you could give that would make the process go faster? I understand speed comes with practice, but there has to be other something else I can do technique-wise to make a simple drawing not take like 6 hours. I am working with a mouse right now, because I lack a tablet. TT u TT Any and all advice is appreciated! ; u ;
What do YOU listen to?
As life requires me to do different things, I finds myself listening to a wide range of music, almost habitually.
For example...
While I am cleaning, I like to listen to light hearted pop, from artists like Jason Mraz.
When I am doing math/physics problems, or when I am driving, I like to listen to alternative rock, like the Neighbourhood, or Arctic Monkeys.
When doing research, I love listening to swing era singers, like Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, etc., or a thoughtful podcast.
When reading, I like songs composed by Joe Hisaishi, Claude Debussy, or artists like them. (Classical, instrumental)
When drawing, I like to listen to m
I did it!!!
After a week of midterms, stress, too many pieces of pumpkin bread, tears, and sweat, I did it!! And in between all that school madness, I was able to upload a lot of my old stuff. Now I can finally get to adding things that aren't from the Stone Age of my drawing history. (I just felt like I should have something on my page besides the same 8 deviations that have been there for like 4 years. )
Anyway, thank you to the people that just started watching me as I was throwing on all my old stuff! You are the real MVPs.
I look forward to adding newer and better things to DeviantArt!
Art for me has always been a road, that some people choos
