So hey! I think it's time for an updated Bio since the last time i wrote this was 2017. I'm writing this one in the horrible year of 2020. I rarely drew when i was a kid. When i did, it was mostly drawing Pokemon comics (I was big into Pokemon: Mystery Dungeon at the time and thought up some fan-fictions in that universe i guess) or copying official Pokemon Artworks or Posters.
Then for a long time i just didn't draw in my freetime. When i did, it was for school projects. It was fun and i was content with it and i actually was somewhat good in art. Or at least i got good grades for the stuff i did. One day I was with my dad at his work (in a restaurant). There weren't a lot of costumers so i had a table for myself and started doing art homework. It was a black and white copy of the 'starry night'. Because it was fairly quiet, a collegue and friend of my dad had some time and sat down in front of me, asking about my art. He was really nice and told me that he painted in his free time as well, then he asked for a pencil and a sheet of paper. I gave that to him and he began to sketch out a portrait of me in like 5 mins which was AMAZING to me at the time.
I was so baffled and so excited and asked if he could teach me how to do that, so he began to explain to me how to draw a basic head (Like proportions andmeasurements and stuff). I did a few horrible attempts at drawing a human head but he was very encouraging and sid with enough practice i would get better. And well, so i did!
I had planned for a long time to become a professional, train to get a net portfolio and apply to art universities. But that didn't work out. I had and still have not much confidence in my art skills and i also didn't find a university where they taught what i actually wanted to get better at. So instead it's just a hobby for me at the moment, and i'm happy with that. I can draw what I want to, when I want to.
I'm studying computer science now and here and there i can even apply my artistic knowledge which is neat!
So there's that. If you read through all of this i commend you, and thank you for taking the time. I don't know why this would be of any interest to you but who knows! Still: You'll get a digital cookie if you read it all. Have a nice day! :)
Hey there ^^ thank you so much for the watch, I really appreciate it!
Thanks for the watch!
