A: Please do. Q: Do you sell prints? A: Yes I do. Please check inprnt and society6 if you are interested. Q: Did you always wanted to be an artist? A: Yes. Q. How did you learn to draw? A: First I started to draw cartoon characters around 1993-1995. After all this I talked with a friend that was in her first year at Visual Art High school. She told me that 3 days on week they had 8 - 10 hrs drawing classes. I was fascinated thinking that I could spend so much time drawing and I decided that I wanted to do that. Q: How do you start your digital drawings? A: I have more methods for drawing the line art. The first one is by a sketch with a pen on A4 paper, or sketchbook paper. Then the finished line art is scanned into Photoshop. After this I save the file as a jpg and work all over with Photoshop. Sometimes I make the sketch directly in Photoshop, it's not any rule, it depends on my mood. Q: How do you color your digital paintings? A: I usually list my media in the description of my artwork, so you will be able to find that answer there first. All of my digital work is colored in Adobe Photoshop with a Wacom tablet. Q: What is a Wacom tablet? A: A tablet is a digital drawing board that is connected to the computer. You can check the Wacom's Web page for more information. Q: How long it takes you to make a digital painting? A: Depends on its complexity, the size and the resolution. Usually it takes me to like a few hours to two weeks for a high resolution colored piece. Q: Do you use Oils or Acrylics for your traditional paintings? A: Oils work for me. Welcome to my Art Blog!

Q: Can I become a freelance artist? A: Yes. The first and most important thing is to actually try. The only way to fail for sure is not to try. Practice as much as you can and get some commissions, however small, as a way to learn. Do what the client asks you to and do it on time. Q Can you teach me to improve my drawing skills? A: I doubt that my advises could help you to much. In any case I can give you some tips; to improve your drawing skills you must practice every day, drawing the objects around or studying after artistic anatomy books or the best could be to try art classes; with a lot of work and focusing you will be able to draw up nice things. Please don't send me your art work through e-mail as I am not in position to critique your work.
