My style.



Everyone who knows me are aware that I am really into art and computers. Unlike those who are more into sports, I am more likely to sit myself down to one corner and start sketching or doodling on a piece of paper. Basically I like doing portraits and realistic drawings. I started out drawing anime characters, then I moved to doing CG (computer graphic) characters like those you see in Final Fantasy games. Gradually I moved my attention to drawing people.


Drawing is a visual art which makes use of any number of drawing instruments to mark a two-dimensional medium. Pencils, pen and ink, charcoal, and stylus are some of the commonly used instruments. Metals that can change color over time like copper, bronze, and gold, can also be used to produce interesting results.


Drawing has different subject matters. It may be representational, showing scenes and objects that the artist sees, remembers or imagines. It may also be realistic. This means that it comes to a point where the drawing shows lifelike resemblance. A person or artist who excels in drawing is given the title of being called as either a draftsman or a draughtsman.


All of the definitions that I have said are not of my own but of others, specifically that of an online encyclopedia. Maybe I could say the for me a drawing is my very own form of photography. I use my hands to capture things that interests me, just like a camera. Though it may not be clear as day to everyone, I am kind of a shy person. I cannot easily express myself in front of others. Maybe through my drawings I am able to express how I feel better. I may not be certain about other things in my life but this is one of the things that I am certain of, being able to draw makes me happy and kind of special.
