Believe in yourself and in your dreams I knew that I liked to draw since I was very little, sometimes by following what others say about not following art or not following your dreams and changing it for something more stable, it leads us to leave what we really love, who we really are, and we get lost.   But, sometimes the light appears to guide us back to our origins, and that is what happened to me, I always used art to create my own world, and I made the decision to do what I love and make me happy and be able to show that world out, and create for any.....Read more

I'd love to share my story. Sorry if I make mistakes, English is not my native language. You can correct them if you want. I always loved to draw, since I was a little girl I remember everyone telling me I had a natural talent, and I was lucky enough to be encouraged by my family to explore my artistry. I didn't think of becoming a professional artist until I discovered websites for artists on the internet. At that time I was drawing using Microsoft Paint, so I started uploading stuff and I got a nice reaction. I met other artists through the forums and learn.....Read more

Hello! I would like to tell you about my story of how art saved me from illness and gave me meaning of life. Before that, Hello there! my name is Resiqn. I've been working as a Comic Artist and Freelance Artist for fun. I was diagnosed with cancer when I was young. Not only that, a few years later, I was diagnosed with Bipolar, BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder) and ICD (impulse control disorder) which makes my conditions getting worse. I often pretend like my illness was nothing so everyone won't be worried. I used to think that if other people we.....Read more

"Art saved my life." Being an artist feels great. You work doing what you love, and that is priceless. My first encounter with art was many years ago when I drew the characters from my favorite anime and comics. The first challenge was losing my job. The company I worked for scammed me, they used my designs and after several months without good pay, the company filed for bankruptcy and I lost what little I had. The second challenge was losing the fear of drawing for other people. But I realized that fear did not pay the bills or the food, so I decid.....Read more

Age does not define your skill level. - I'm currently a 26 y/o aspiring Digital Artist who still struggles, but I'll get into that a bit more after I discuss the beginning of my journey.  I started at a very young age, I would say around 6 to say the least. Being a kid, I just felt the desire to colour a picture.. draw a random thing. I never knew how much I loved Art until' I kept doing more than just grabbing a pencil and going to town. As I continued to age, a comic wasn't just a comic to me, I enjoyed the artistic side that was put into it......Read more

Growing Stronger. I've been drawing since I was really little, like 6-7 y/o and it always was the way for me to connect with and understand the world I live in, and at the same time, the world that lives inside me. Through the years many things happened, people come and go, but drawing was always with me, it's the thing that stayed and just grows in me eternally. It was difficult at the beginning to connect with others, to find people who fully support this one thing I want to do for the rest of my life, and fortunately I did, on the internet and in my hometo.....Read more

Drawing is a step in my life. 3 years ago I spent my life working in a hospital, but it felt so hard and made me a little depressed because I could not feel happy. So I decided to resign from the hospital and started drawing. At first I draw on paper with watercolors, it lasted for a year, until finally I met a friend who is good at digital drawing. I was interested and started trying to draw digitally. Yeah, that was very fun. Maybe this can be a good therapy for me. Now I am truly in love with digital drawing. Make beautiful art and can also make other people .....Read more
