    what does your avatar say about you?

    i think my avatar fits me because it is the expression of my brooding and deep soul every time i come to this site

    how did you choose your avatar and why?

    That I'm a really punky dude!

    Well, no... I just happen to like that band and I thought the pic was cool.

    Lol!

    Stragan, this is awesome!

    Like glancing through the window into the soul of an artiste...

    Honestly, this made my day. :-)

    My avatar says that I own a camera and was too lazy to actually draw a self-portrait

    I'll get right on that self-portrait thing after I finish procrastinating.

    A combo of the Japanese flag and a drawing of kamen rider Joker from the blade series.

    My way of supporting Japan in its greatest moment of danger.

    It was michael jackson (to honor his memory, but he'd want to help the people of japan so I think he'd understand).

    It's a combo of two big parts of my identity: the LGBT community and how much I love art (brushes especially. So much so I'd make out with them. Oh watercolors, oh brushes ♥)

    I don't know. It's my face.
    My Sketchbook

    And then God said, "Let us make man in our likeness and our image. Let us make him ridiculously hard to draw so that poor artists everywhere will have to spend 10,000+ hours failing repeatedly before they can begin to capture the form and likeness onto a two-dimensional surface." And there was man. And it was good. And artists everywhere lost their minds.

    I was once on the receiving end of a critique so savagely nasty, I marched straight out of class to the office and changed my major (sketchbook).

    Mine..? It's just a moment I found funny from The Office. (One of my favorite shows.)

    .. And, because I'm a girl, I have boobs. LOL
    It's the truth / appropriate. (Or a bit inappropriate depending on how you look at it, but that's kind of my sense of humor. XD)

    Once, long ago, I did a decent portrait of Rex Harrison as Pope Julius II working from a publicity still for "The Agony and the Ecstasy". Sadly it remains my best work.
