CGsociety: [link]SoundCloud: [link]Facebook: [link]An ardent lover of Art and Music, I've been doodling and drawing since I was a child, first enraptured by a box of Crayolas and some newsprint. After a brief hiatus, I have rediscovered my passion for drawing and decided that art is my future. I recently completed my associate art degree and am now teaching myself how to paint digitally. I primarily use Photoshop cs5 for painting but I also have used Paint tool SAI and Corel Painter.
