✖ Your name?
Alice

✖ If possible, your age?
16 years and 1 day. :B (I'M OLD NOW! LOL)

✖ When did you start drawing?
Well, I started when I was 4. I really couldn't draw, and my preschool teacher really pointed that out. She told me that my drawings were horrible and I should never draw again. Ah, good times, good times.
I started drawing again when I was 8 though :D

✖ Which hand do you use for drawing?
Right
(Left for drawing creepy things to freak out people LOL)

✖ Which is easier to draw - male or female?
I really don't know. I draw my women masculine and my men feminine. LOLWUT

✖ Which is easier to draw - long hair or short hair?
long hair =P When I draw short hair, it always ends up unproportional 16546513684849431654 times before I get it right XD

✖ Is it easier to draw the head facing towards the right or the left?
from the artist's point of view or the person you're drawing? What a confusing question. From my point of view, to the left then.

✖ Is it easier to draw the side view of the face or the front view?
Front viewwwwww
omgggggg
my side views look sooooooooooooooooo bad rofl

✖ What do you have problems in drawing?
clothing =_=
I would draw everyone naked if I could LOL but I suck at anatomy too, so. lmao

✖ What do you like to draw?
Anime; I love drawing and colouring hair :3
I like drawing animals in realism, but it's really hard for a cat to stay still for long, so photos work better haha

✖ Are you a traditional artist or a digital artist?
I'm pretty sure it's split down the middle. I always sketch in pencil, ink it, then scan and colour and add effects.

✖ Where do you start drawing from?
I draw the eyes, nose, mouth, hair, face, body, then clothing. (I somehow mess up the anatomy when I DO use reference shapes - circles and rectangles for the face and such)

✖ What is your drawing habit that you are aware of?
It's not necessarily a bad habit, but I ALWAYS make the sketch too perfect and clean. I know I can fix it when I'm inking, but ARRRRGHHH I can't have messy lines XD

✖ Any tips for coloring/shading?
Well, what I do for colouring is blotch colour in a whole spot, shade it and make and blurs before I erase the stuff outside the lines. This is probably the hardest way to colour, I know, but I don't know how to colour the other ways LOL

✖ How long does it take to finish a piece of art?
sketch - 30min
ink - 30-60min
colouring - 16874651684651654968461 years.

✖ What music do you listen to while you draw?
I just click "play all" and listen to any of my songs that come on haha

✖ How long does it take you to come up with an idea?
Not long. It's just the finishing them that takes a long time. (Hence my short sketching time but tremendous colouring time)

✖ Your favorite drawing utensils?
I usuallly use a 3B pencil, ink with my cheap inking pen I got at wal-mart that works AMAZING, then colour using openCanvas.

✖ Your favorite color/the color that you use a lot?
purple.
The things I colour always have a purple/gray tinge to it XD

✖ Your favorite style(s)?
good styles? I really like the lineless paintings, but I've never tried to do one XD

♥ manga / manhwa / game artists:
CLAMP :heart:
Amano Akira, Katsura Hoshino, Ai Yazawa, oh there's many more *A*

♥ deviantART artists:
There's even more of these... XD :heart:

✖ What kind of artist are you aiming for?
An artist who can truly make a picture worth 1000 words and more.
