• Style: A little bit Shounen, more so Shoujo though. My style is influenced mostly by Watsuki Hironobu (Rurouni Kenshin! Aaaah...Soujirou...*drool* ^_~),Okuda Hitoshi (the anime that got me started), and Urushihara Satoshi (minus the nudity ^_^). I try to merge realistic and anime/manga styles, and that's been augmented by my recent dabblings in realism. Emotional subjects are usually one of my requirements and thus I prefer not to use grids and blocking; "spontaneous" is the way I like it ^_~!

• Experience: I've always loved drawing, though it wasn't really until '97 when I began to take drawing seriously (Tenchi Muyo anyone? ^_^). That was also the time that I began drawing anime as well. Since then, I've developed my own style and drawn just for the fun of it. I'm self taught, have never taken any classes, and would prefer not to as artwork (imho) is something that comes from the heart and not ~simply~ from instruction.

• Strength: I'd like to think that I have a nice sense of line, and colour/shading. Emotional composition is something I've always strived to include within my pieces, and that aspect of my artwork is something I'm relatively proud of.

• Weakness: Aaaah...too many to name!^_^ But mostly I really wish I was brave enough to pick up more mediums and styles. I have this dreadful fear that I'll fail in something new...and I hate failure (I'm realistic enough to know it's always waiting...waiting to get me somehow/somewhere! ^_^). In any case, I also need to stop doing so much fan art and try my hand at more original stuff....Ah...woe is me...if I don't stop now I never will!!! ^_~
