Tell us your story:

I started out writing stories, creating characters, and overall plotting out novels and movies that I'm looking to get published or made. Then I decided that it's a lot easier to tell a story through pictures rather than words, so I took a college-level drawing class and then a digital art class. In my last semester, I took an animation class and began studying all forms of animation, falling in love again with cartoons and discovering new types of animation like claymation. Now I'm out of college waiting to enter flight school.

About Me:

I draw. A lot. But since I've only been doing it for a year and a half, I feel old starting now even though I'm only 22. I like to listen to music, all kinds, and then create scenes or plots. The most extreme example is that I even wrote an entire movie based on HIM's Love Metal album. I think animation is about motion, so I don't really care for most cartoons with lots of talking.
