What made me an artist.
2008-07-22
When I was still at the tender age of 11, one classmate of mine was drawing up a storm, and I said to myself I could draw like that. Years went on and I moved out of my home country of Philippines. I moved here in California and started my own calvary and struggle into owning my own style of artwork. Heavily influenced by Dungeons and Dragons and RPG gaming, i delved into the world of art of Forgotten Realms, Dragonlance and Joe Dever's Lone wolf books. Later I got induced by the Tolkien world, so much imagination at work. I started to flesh out the ideas out of my head and started drawing.
Technically, I started some art instruction in High School. Dropped out of Correspondent school of Art Instruction School of Minneapolis, Minnesota. I am still drawing my butt off, to relieve of day to day rut, or to escape to the worlds of such great magnitudes of fantasy.
