I don't really know what to say on this one lol... I started doing pencil work only but after I decided what I wanted to do with my artistic life I began using other mediums. I have recently begun using digital media as an outlet for my skills, so I may not be good but I am happy with the results I am getting. I have only done three commisions for my friends, localy, but am hoping to refine my skills so I can do more. I like doing work for other people because it makes me happy to see someones idea come out the way that they had imagined it. It makes them happy which makes me happy. Otherwise my art is what I do to express myself and how i feel. I am a professional to myself, although I will always believe that I have more to learn. And I am always happy to learn more!
I think that in the end what I want out of my art skills is to help me get to a place where that is what I do for a living... in all reality I am happy with my skills but I would love to work in some studio or manga company. Thats what my end game would be. Wow, I wrote a lot more than I thought I would... well if I did not explain anything to satisfy your curiosity then please ask and I will be glad to tell.
