First Journal entry on DeviantArt so I figured I'd use it to introduce myself. I'm a passionate artist who is constantly seeking ways to improve and better himself at a trade he loves. I've been drawing for nearly five years but I've finally reached a point where I feel I can take it more seriously than I have been. Figured I'd join this community not only to share my own art, but also connect with other artists, so please, don't be shy! I understand criticism is important to improvement, so I welcome constructive criticism with open arms, though I do ask that the critiques also provide ways I could improve, when possible. At the moment, I am happily accepting any art trades or commissions. If you've read this far, I'd like to ask: How's your day been? :)
