It’s hard to say, really.
I loved to draw since I was a kid. I even used to attend some art courses for children but I never liked someone telling me what should I draw/paint. I don’t remember why I stopped going there. I think that since I joined dA my “art” has

Now I must say my main styles/types of art are:
Comics (people with huge eyes)
Abstract/Fantasy (Spirits)
Vector (Monsters)

Somewhere in the last years of elementary school I kept doodling little comics (I still keep some of them) and I even made one bigger (my first fancomic about Star Craft XD – long before “big eyes” style) and my style kept developing from weird looking thingies into huge eyed people. Then suddenly I stopped drawing (and started writing a lot). Although I used to doodle from time to time.
I discovered dA after Legacy Of Kain: Defiance was released (looking for fanart) and good old TheReelMoebius made me to create an account there so I could draw fanarts and fancomics of LOK. I like to see my little development in this style. I’m slowly trying to make those huge eyes smaller.

As for my Spirits.. I remember that I was imagining a scene where a girl turns into something made of light. I took my pen and drew something looking a little bit like a woman. Can’t remember when that happened and why I decided to scan that picture and invert it in MS Paint. I think it was also at the end of elementary school.
I started drawing Spirits once again in high school. Heh.. and a crush on someone was my main inspiration. Unfortunately now when I’m with this person, I draw them less and less often. And even when I draw them once in a while I see that they’re not so wonderful as they used to be. They seem so stiff and static. Somehow this, one of the easiest techniques (where anatomy and proportions don’t matter) has become one of the most difficult for me.

As for Monsters. I think they’re the best for vector art. They just came to existence suddenly, when I was in my writing “era” and I was just doodling around the edges of pages of my notebook. I want to draw them more, but I want to learn vector style a little bit more.

I tag everyone who really wants to do this.


--------------- Old news


Ho ho. Things are better now.
I didn't loose my scholarship so I'm not broke anymore (for the moment).
Suddenly sending lots of CVs gave me some fruit. I had a second interview in a big outsourcing company and I'm waiting for their call if they want me. The payment is great and it's a big opportunity to work on my english - I might be working as a tech support for clients from Canada.
Just after I came back home another company called me. They want to interview me so I'm going there on Friday. And my brother has subscribed me for a course in a company where he is going to work.
So I have maybe 70% to get a job in one company, 100% in "my bro's company", and an interview in the third one - Woogoo! ^^
Still I won't be going anywhere for summer holidays >< but well.. I screw up my studies so I must pay for my laziness XD and pay for the semester.

Corel Draw is a pain in the butt XD I can't learn to use it. I'm so used to Photoshop that I can't figure out how things work in Corel XD

I just realized how degradation started eating my brain and the rest of my body.
I'm looking for a job, but most of my time I spend looking at the screen. I do nothing. My house is a mess, I don't cook, I try to draw but I often start something and somehow I never finish it. I have lots of new ideas but I can't make myself to write them down or start anything towards them. I have a bunch of movies to watch but I just keep them somewhere and talk to myself "I'll watch them later". There are even some books I somehow can't start reading. I started Neil Gaiman's Anasi Boys but after reading American Gods I need to rest a little bit from his works.

I have so much free time and I waste it. My english has never been perfect, but it's gotten worse through last two years - I just realized how many mistakes I make lately and I look into the dictionary too often. Sometimes writing a bigger text (for example - my journal) takes me lots of time. I think that right now I make lots of mistakes while writing this journal.

I wanted to learn to use Flash. Every time I install it, after 2 days it's removed, because I'm too impatient. I think I suck and then *poof* Flash is uninstalled. And I have at least 5 ideas for short movies.
Now while looking for a job I started thinking, is there a chance if I could work in graphic/designing companies. I came to a conclusion that there is, but I need to make a portfolio and start learning to use other programs than Photoshop. I've tried Illustrator, but trial version is too short - and I'm too stupid to crack it (I so promise that when I gonna get a job and get enough money - I'll buy original Photoshop and Illustrator.. and Corel Draw or Painter <-- a huge sum of money ). And I think it's time I should work on Corel. I don't need to get a diploma from Art School, I just need to work on myself. Maybe my Monsters should be redone? I have some ideas for new Monsters too (I even wanted to make an Easter card but my short depression made not to). The last thing I need is a faster computer. Making a line and waiting 5 seconds for it to show on the screen is irritating.

I decided to be more organized, just like when I was 14. I used to carry a calendar everywhere and make notes and "to do" lists. I also used to sketch in it and write short stories or ideas.

The last thing is my physical condition. I haven't moved a lot for some time. I used to go on karate lessons and they were great but they lasted only for a year. After the 3rd semester started I didn't have time to join the club (probably I would fail more exams than I really did). Now when I'll be back on 1st semester I could take karate as my PE lessons again and then join the club, because I gonna have more time.
I stopped like any kinds of sport when Sailor Moon started being aired in Poland (I think I was 9 back then). Too much TV made me move less and getting tired easily... totally irritated me. Only karate lessons with Sensei Machulec made me feel alive. I used to like riding on a bike, but 2 yaers after my first mountain bike was stolen, my dad took me on a trip with a new bike. It was terrible. From that time I somehow don't like riding it at all.

Okay, I'll stop making your lives more miserable with my boring journal ^^. It's time I should move my ass.
