Some Ramblings About Me

 

Having lived in the rural area in the frozen northern portion of Minnesota for almost as long as I can remember, I turned to art at a tender age to make up for the lack of excitement around me. I've been homeschooled my entire life--my own choice, schools here would've been all the wrong kinds of exciting--and am primarily self-taught in my primary interest, art! A big thanks, however, must go out to the internet for "assisting" with my education.

During my junior and senior years in highschool I enrolled in two painting classes (among other things) at UMC, through Minnesota's Post-Secondary Enrollment Option program. I enjoyed the classes and learned a lot about painting, with which I hadn't had much experience.

My artistic pursuits vary somewhat: traditional painting, digital painting, drawing, sculpture, pixel art, and 3D modeling and animation. I usually bounce from one to the other every few months or so, and try to apply what I've learned in one field to all the others.

Some other interests of mine include computer gaming (naturally) and game design. I'm not much of a programmer so I usually use one of the numerous game creation systems out there, some of my favorite are listed in the links section.

I also discovered a love for creative writing, which I was intruduced to during an english composion class. I'd like to write a book eventually, but have yet to actually undertake any such grand venture.
