I'm an artist who enjoys doing illustrations. I love asian artists (mangakas for the most part) and am heavily influenced by them. My favorite artists are (to name just a few): Masakazu Katsura (video Girl Ai), Hyung-Tae Kim (magna carta), Régis Loisel...

--FAQ--

Where did you learn how to draw?
A bit from school: Had drawing classes with models which helped a lot.
A lot from studying drawing on my own: books on human anatomy, on light/shadow, on color... Also reading tutorials on how to draw on the web.

How long did it take you to learn how to draw?
Learning how to draw is usually quick. Getting better is another story. I started drawing when I was 4 yrs old and got serious about it at the end of high school. It took me 2 or 3 yrs to get really comfortable with my style. Then it just has evolved slowly from then on. The amount of time it takes to get better is equivalent to the amount time you are willing to give to practice and get better.
