I have had an interest in art for as long as I can remember. My earliest memory of my love for art is from when I was about 6 years old and I was forced to go to summer camp. All I wanted to do was draw or paint or make boondoggles while all of the other kids were playing games. I took art classes all throughout school and I loved them, but I never really felt like it was great at art. In high school, one of my art teachers pulled me aside and said she was mad at me. I was in shock, because I never got in trouble at school. She wasn’t really mad at me, but she was disappointed that I didn’t sign up for the art program in school and it was too late for me to do so at that point. She said I had talent, and it was at that moment that I realized I was good at art.
I used to enjoy drawing a lot, but now that I have more experience with Photoshop, I prefer to create digital artwork. When using Photoshop, there is really no limit to what I can do. There are so many tools that I can use to create whatever I want.
A lot of my inspiration comes from things that are a part of my daily life, like what I see on tv, the type of music I listen to, pictures I see when I’m blogging on Tumblr. I am a very visual person, and things that I see have an impact on me. The digital art that I create reflect things that appeal to me (mostly because I am a student working at Walgreens and the only art I create are for my classes).
