My Bio
Hello. I am the daughter of an artist. I never was any good at drawing; creative writing has always been more my thing. However, one day in sixth grade I decided that I was sick and tired of having crappy art and only being able to draw stick figures. And so I started paying attention to simple video game graphics and other art. In seventh grade I was introduced to manga and so then I started drawing that.

To summarize my art, I have learned a lot, but I still have ages to go. Really I can only draw people; animals, landscapes and inanimate objects are hell for me. I have a tough time with shading and I'm very critical with my art. A lot of my art here will not be that great, however how do we get better at anything? We practice. Which is pretty much what most of this is.

Because I think my art is crap, I don't share it with most people. Only my father, since he can help me get better. The reason I am making this account is because, in all honestly, I will probably never meet you, and therefore I can never see the looks of disgust on your face.

Warning: Constructive critism is more than welcome, but please don't flat out insult my art. Yes, I know its bad, however, I don't back down from a challenge. In eight grade I opened up my heart enough to show a friend who liked to draw my art. Her response: "Wow. Is this it? Your art sucks." And that was the moment I resolved that, before I die, a piece of my art will be published.

I was taught to knit at the age of eight though I'm not very good and have kept it up since then, knitting of and on. My mother learned a couple years after me and knitting is one of the few things we bond about. Now funnily enough it turns out that my moms friend knows how to knit as well. As it happens she taught all three of her sons to knit and one of them really loved to knit. So we asked what her son is doing now. You know who her son is? BROOKLYNTWEED. Yeah, all you knitters out there, I know your mouth just dropped. I know his mom. But anyways, she just went to visit him, and helped him clean out his yarn supply. What he didn't want h

DA

Hello! As you might have seen, I'm entirely new here. So all explanations and greetings are welcome. The one thing that I've sort of been wondering about is... everyone here refers to deviant art as DA. And I can understand why, it must be monotonous to type it out repeatedly. However, all I think of when I hear "DA" is Dumbledore's Army. Maybe I'm just a Harry Potter nerd at heart, but did anybody else think that when they got here??? So, fair warning: if you say "welcome to DA" I can promise I will be thinking about Harry Potter.
