I have always had an artistic side, and i enjoy all art. i studied anthropology in college, and i think this has influenced some of what i draw and how i see the world.

Most of my life I was into pencil drawing, but recently I got into black ink drawings, and I use the stippling technique which is really fun, but requires a lot of patience. Hopefully I will learn through this website and by watching other artists how to develop my craft. I love a good critique, and encourage all to write comments on my work even if you don’t like it. If you see something I should be doing or maybe missed, please let me know. When I critique other artists if necessary I will comment on an area of improvement, because I have such respect for artists and I will do anything to help them out.

My goal is to improve my art, meet new people, and share my work with others from all around the world.
