Hey, everyone,

I'm just wondering, how did y'all start drawing? Or painting or whatever artistic thing that you're good at?
Well, I love to draw, and I think that I started when I first read manga and I loved the mangaka's drawings...So I just wanted to see if I could do the same thing!

*looks in thought* well, I started drawing when I was only really little; it was mostly out of bordom I imagine but it turned into something I loved. When I used to go on holidays I had nothing beter to do on those boring nights so I just pulled out my journal and drew away. Back then I used to draw animals though.
I started drawing the manga style which I do now, however, because I loved DBZ and wanted to make my own characters sooooo,yea. That was four years back now.

Well I think I started where many great artist's got their start. Out of boredom and lack of art skills, it was born. I'm talking of course about Stickfigures! xd

I think i started out of envy...i know it sounds bad, but, that's how it is.... When i started i was really vain, and had to be the best at everything, and my best friend could draw, and i had never done it before... ( she can still draw better than me, btw...) After i had gotten a little better, i was content with my work...

I had a deep love of sailor moon when I was little, and bought a pack of trading cards for them. And started drawing sailor moon by looking at the picture on the back xd , then it just progressed onward. recently i've been trying my hand at photography

Ermmm..... lets see *sits down thinking* question How did I end up drawing anime and writing? Hmmm.... *puts on thinking face* That's it! I started drawing when I was 9. My best friend was really great at drawing anime and stuff. She and another friend of ours shared a sketch book together. I always liked looking at their drawings. That's when I started drawing stick peoplez! 4laugh I drew my first anime drawing nearing the end of last year. 4 years and i finally drew an anime! man, it took long! As for writing, well, I've liked literature ever since I was a kid. (pretty much because my mom n dad are english teachers too sweatdrop ) My best friend and I still draw but I'm the one who writes. It's sorta like a tag team. I give her my ideas and she gives me her ideas (doesn't really work out all the time sweatdrop )

(P.S. stick peoplez rule!!!!!! blaugh have you seen a stick animation? their hilarious!!)
