Since a young age, like so many people, I have always been interested in drawing my favourite cartoon heroes. Mine was, of course, Super Mario and all that lot and to be honest, I was rather good at it! However, upon reaching High School I drifted from drawing and started to do more acedemic stuff. It wasn't until I met a certain person, Ben Jones, through Young Enterprise that I actually started to draw again. Unfortunately this was at the time of our GCSE's, which meant no revision (Which I probably wouldn't have done anyway...) and lots of drawing instead! It started off with reading the Sabrina Online comic strip, which Ben introduced me to. Following this, I was scribbling away in the back of Ben's car when we were off to a garden centre, he's a real botony freak, when he realised I was rather good at drawing. Thus, we started to design characters...

The original pictures that I drew were of real people besides one character, Roberta. However, she was really a combination from both me and Ben. My very own first ever character was Helene, which is why either she, or myself as designing/experimental characters. Anyway, this was in May 2001, since then I've come over leaps and bounds but only since September 2002 have I actually taken art as a lesson! I must say, I think that's rather good, non?

Now, I tend to do my own work, or create with others on a mutual basis. I'll also often do gift art for others, normally for free (I havn't charged anyone to this day!). Since sometime in 2002, I've moved onto Manga as well as furry. It was probably inevitable considering I started with Mario! (Although I did also watch a fair amount of Anime as a young kid and only now have I realised I did!) I watch loads now, too, particularly thanks to Monkey and Velvet_Curse! Well, hopefully I can make something out of all this, but for now... ^_^
