How long has it been since I've done a good ol' long format journal meme, I am thrilled haha. Nice to meet everyone! I haven't been posting art regularly in over a year since becoming disillusioned with social media as an art platform, at least with regards to my own wants and needs for my art...

Looking forward to curating a little gallery in a space that's my own. We'll see how it goes!

how long have you been creating: since I can remember
how did you learn: experimentation and observation, a lot of patience and stubbornness, motivated by a need to give image to characters and ideas...
how long does it usually take you to make something: I struggle to make anything that takes longer than a few hours / a single sitting.
