Olivia/18/Art Student

[LadyBirdGerhl]

WELCOME! biggrin

Yes, that picture is me. It's my freak-out face. I never leave home without it!


Anyway, on to business.

My name is Olivia, I'm 18, and I'm an art student. I love drawing, mostly people. I used to draw anime quite a bit but recently (within the last two years) I've moved on to a more realistic style (mostly due to the fact that I took Drawing 1 and 2 at my high school and had a tough, but awesome, teacher).


I have a deviant art account that has most of my art work posted on it, however I have about 20 more drawings and scetches I need to post, not to mention the large drawings I haven't even taken a picture of yet! (Oh boy, there's quite a few of those.) Anyway, here's the link so you can get a feel for my style.

I've never done an art trade before, though I have drawn things for people and they've drawn things for me. I'm pretty open to whatever you want me to draw. I need the practice. I can't say how many I'll be able to get done in a week. Perhaps one or two drawings, depending on how busy I am. I AM in college, and it's nearing the end of the semester so things might get a little pushed back here on gaia. I should have plenty of time after December 11th, which I do believe is my last day for my classes this semester.

As I mentioned before, I'm open to whatever you want me to draw. Here's a list of things I'm okay with:

- Original characters
- Gaia Avatars
- Anime Characters or characters from other cartoon shows. (It may not be in anime style, however. Like I said, I'm more of a realistic artist now.)
- Musical Artists/ Celebrities. However, I will be choosing who to draw from that list. There are some celebrities and and musical artists that grab my attention and others that I wouldn't want to touch with a ten foot pole. So, pitch me an idea and I'll say, 'hey, that sounds fun," or, "Sorry, that person isn't someone I want to draw." Don't ask me to draw Paris Hilton or Jay-Z. I have a thing against those to. ninja
- Sims. (Yes, Sims. I'm a BIG simmer. I love The Sims 1 and 2. So much fun. ^__^)
- Characters in books. (I LOVE Fairy Tales. Disney movies are fun, too.)
- Pitch me an idea! If I decide not to do it, sorry, but I have the right to draw what I want and to not draw what I don't want.


Do something that catched my eye. If you can make me laugh, smile, or move me in some way, I'm more likely to draw something for you.


OH! Also, I'm most likely going to be doing these in oil pastels because they're easier and quicker for me to work with. Unless you absolutely want a different medium, well then, just let me know. I can also do pencil, colored pencil, and marker. Let me know what you want, or it'll come out oil pastel or, if I decide to, in a different medium. ^__^


That's about it! If you have any more questions, don't hesitate to ask. ^___^

So, feel like drawing something for me? (Oh, how sweet! xd ) Well, here is a list of things I LOVE and if you drew something for me the related to one of these things, well, I can pretty much gaurrentee youll get something drawn in return. No good deed goes unnoticed!!


- Phantom of the Opera. (I LOVE The Phantom, Erik. WONDERFUL! ^__^)
- Something from a fairy tale or Disney movies. Some of my favorites include Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, The Little Mermaid, Thumbalina. I like Alice in Wonderland, too, but I've never actually seen the movie nor have I read any books. I only know the story from friends and because another friend brought me a 1976 Alice in Wonderland musical porn. xd WOW.
- Tim Burton movies!! The Nightmare Before Christmas, The Corpse Bride, Edward Scissorhands. Love them.
- The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. It's a 1920 silent film. (One that I feel should be remade by, you guessed it, Tim Burton.) I LOVE the Sunambulist. If anyone drew him for me, him and the beautiful woman the stole, I'd ADORE THAT PERSON.
- Queen of the Damned movie Lestat. Steward Townshend is GORGOUS in that movie! OH MAN. They even did a video for Forsaken in the style of The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. I LOVED IT!!
- Prince Zuko of the Firenation tribe from Avatar: The Last Airbender. I LOVE Zuko. Oh my gosh. xd
- The Dresden Dolls. 'Nuff said.
- Black and white stripes, or black and another color stripes. I love them!
- Portraits are cool. No one's ever done a portrait of me before. Here's a link to my photobucket site. You can find tons of pictures on there of me if you're interested. http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v215/MidStaryNight/ You'll find a lot in the one titled Photoshoots with Mary. Lots of fun.
- anything else you think I'd like based on this list of things I've said, etc. Have fun with it!
