Faith in God. Artist. Musician. Gamer. Geek.
Honestly, I'm just an ordinary amateur digital artist aspiring to be a pro. :)
My biggest satisfaction is bringing to life people's fantasies in art form - be it fanart, drawing their original characters, creating worlds they have in their minds - it brings me no greater pleasure in art than to make people feel that their imaginations can become a digital reality.
As such, I love taking requests - I can't always do all of them because of work-life balance, but I always do my best to take as many as I can.
Do help me improve if you have any advice at all to offer! And given that I am here to make art for everyone, don't hesitate to talk to me personally! :)
Goals for the future:
1. Keep improving my art and reach the level of quality achieved by my inspirations - Sakimichan, Tsuaii, Zeronis and many more!
2. Get a Wacom Cintiq! But I'm quite happy with my Huion H610 Pro at the moment :)
3. Have a consistent rate of delivering art to keep my supporters supplied!
4. Take commissions, paid and occasionally free!
5. Make as many of people's original characters come to life in my art as possible!
6. Expand my art to be able to draw landscapes, videogame-esque cinematic stills and complex compositions!
7. Establish accounts across multiples sites like ArtStation, etc. to spread my art to more people!
8. Get a Patreon started when I've achieved most of the above and offer exclusive content (but keep at least 95% accessible for no costs!) and benefits like early access, alternate versions of a piece, etc.
Some of these may be lofty goals, but as the saying goes, "shoot for the moon - if you miss, you'll land among the stars". I encourage everyone to do the same! No harm setting goals - what's stopping you from making it your goal to be a concept artist for Pixar, a famous scultpor, a comic/manga artist, or anything else? Don't let your God-given talents be put to waste!

Hi Summer! Sorry, haven't been able to reply cuz I've been REAAAALLLYY busy with work and stuff! Also I've been busy assembling my brand new desktop which I finally got 2 weeks ago!Β
Thanks to being so busy though I've had plenty of my art skills atrophy 
Is there any of the Great Guardian Ozriel cast you want drawn by the way? It motivates me a lot more to practice when I know someone is looking forward to my art and seeing their character done in my style. Loved doing Ignis, would love to do someone new!

Ooh don't worry!! I know how busy life can be >_< It's my midterm week, so I totally feel you! OOH how's the new desktop though? That's awesome!
Oooh oooh, you KNOW I always want to see my characters in your beautiful style!! How about Allenova, the rebel leader? (she's the rather scantily clad one in this page
The Great Guardian Ozriel Page 100
Also, the purple thing on her head is a headscarf, not her hair. She never shows her hair 
She's the most fun-loving of my lady characters, and I'd sure love to see your take on her!

Nice cool, really glad you liked the Ignis piece as much as I did drawing it! I'll see about finishing Allenova within March

Hahaha you can draw her however you want 
Any yes, she does actually have white skin! (her eyes are actually navy blue though, the purple is just from the chapter color scheme)

Thanks! But I still prefer to call you Summer or Peaches, it's become your unique identity for me and it's too cute
