I have been an artist with a pencil in my hand for as long as I can remember. My journey began long before I enrolled in art school and continues today as a self-taught artist with a deep passion for manga and anime. I love bringing characters to life and building worlds around them, and yes, backgrounds are my favorite part, even if they are the most difficult. For me, every background is an opportunity to convey emotions, atmospheres, and stories. Today, I draw because it is the only way I know how to give shape to the worlds in my head, and I dream of doing it for a living one day. I am familiar with the main drawing programs, including Clip Studio Paint and Photoshop, with a preference for the first, and I am not afraid to step out of my comfort zone and explore new styles and approaches! I am eager to learn and put myself out there!
