When I was 16 years old, I decided I would make a Deviant art to both track my progress, and try and establish myself in a very large art community. I never managed to do the later, but what I have done is managed to provide a good example for myself whenever I feel lacking in my own artistic abilities. - or feel jealous of others whose abilities far surpass mine.
This deviant art isn't just a platform for me to express myself or to show off my mediocre skills to others. It's a reminder to my 25 year old self that while I no longer am attempting a professional job in the art industry, art is still something I love and am passionate about. It is a reminder that I do not have to be a 'professional' artist in my professional life to be considered a true artist. Because art is art, and whether or not you are creating for work or having fun- no one can take away your passion,and love for it.
As much as it embarrasses me for random strangers to see it, I refuse to get rid of it because of what it means to me.
So please enjoy my small library of works. Please forgive me for the cringey stuff in my early days.
If you're chill, drop me a message. I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
