my art
mainly i draw, but i do other art forms as well. my favorite medium is mixed media both digitally and traditionally, for traditional i like to use trash or unused things a lot. favorite sculpting technique is tin foil/clay/paper mache mix, foil in center clay for details and paper mache for outer layer. i also like sewing, right now i mostly sew bags and such at work.
programs
i've been drawing digital art since 2009 and i draw using the same wacom tablet i started with as it hasn't died yet. i used to upload art mainly to deviantART but it's an archive now as i stopped uploading new art to it 2022. now my main uploading site is twitter.

quick FAQ
Q: how do you make your pixels so big?
A: i zoom in on the canvas and then I printscreen it. then i paste the printscreen into a new canvas and edit it. sometimes I change the resolution instead (this works in photoshop and clip studio paint) by changing it to double or triple the size of the original canvas.
Q: could you make a tutorial about X?
A: probably no, it takes way too much time and energy the way i do it. but i can always give tips through text if you ask.
my music
i make music sometimes and i upload it on soundcloud. i am always making music but i don't upload a lot of it. i make both traditional and digital music, i play the piano and guitar for sing song composition most of the time. i have done short compositions on my piano that then become full digital songs.
programs & samples
i specifically use FL version 11.1.0 because the monophonic setting under time stretching got changed completely in the next version. i use it for all my music so i had to stick with it. for samples, most samples i use are either made by me, downloaded 5+ years ago or in my free sound history. now i basically get all my samples from there if i can't record and edit them myself.
