I'm a high school graduate from the Midwest that has been dabbling in various types of art for years. I guess you could say I have a lot of interests. I will not bore you with details, but sufficient enough to say I'm a poverty wage class guy who sees art as much of an expression of the soul and mind as an escape from this reality. I will also admit that when something catches my attention, I do tend to obsess and scrutinize every detail. This often gets me in trouble with my personal life and has landed me with few friends and no girlfriend, but the friends I do have I trust excessively. For the most part, I work with colored pencils and graphite for a drawing medium. I have attempted digital art, but I like to touch the medium I'm working with so I have never delve too deeply into it. I also write both original works and fan fictions, and hope to clean up the ones worth it enough to post on here eventually. Anyway, that's me in a nutshell.
