Introduction:
I'm a university student doing art, writing, and the occasional adopt making as a passionate hobby! I love working on nonhuman characters, especially various dragons and sea creatures, and I enjoy working with themes relating to otherness. If I follow you, chances are I'm doing it because I like your OCs, and I'm generally very interested in learning more about people's characters and stories.

10 Questions: FAQ
How long had you've been drawing?
I have always been drawing, but I started drawing "proper" when I was 12, about to turn 13. That's when I learned about digital art, art communities, and got my first drawing tablet as a birthday present :)
Who inspired you to do art?
My introduction to art as a more "serious" hobby happened through discovering the art of Linnea Bellamine and IsisMasshiro. Both had their art stolen by someone on a virtual pet website, and through tracking down the original artists I was introduced to digital art and art communities.
What is your favorite color?
Light blue!
Do you own a pet?
Currently no.
How many fandoms are you in?
I don't really interact with fandoms all that much anymore! The only exceptions are Bloodborne/generally FromSoftware games, and FFXIV, though I curate my interactions a lot with the latter.
So where did you find out about Sheezy?
On Toyhouse, back in 2021. I don't think I ever used the original Sheezy, or if I did I have no memories of it.
How did you get your username?
Early bird gets the worm etc. I think I was here just early enough to snatch this
What is your favorite type of chocolate?
I like milk chocolate!
Is there any advice for new artists you have?
I speak strictly as a hobbyist who is talking to other hobbyists when I say this, but I'm SO real about this: draw exactly the kind of art you want to see yourself, not what other people want to see. Never compromise your own joy and enjoyment of art in favour of algorithms or whatever if it doesn't make you happy.
And finally, the final question. Are you a morning person or a night owl?
I'm a morning person! I usually wake up at around 6am every morning out of my own free will. I think I get more things done when I wake up early.
I used phantacodes' template for this meme!
