Well hello - mika_land - 03-29-2020
So uh, Hi. My name's Mikaela.
I've been drawing and painting since I was young but didn't get serious till my early 20s. By then I had changed course to psychology in college with a minor in painting. I graduated and realized I wasted my time in college because I didn't like the career choice (and to get a better job I'd need to shell out $100k for a Masters, PhD or more for MD, all for a job I wasn't sure I'd like). I did a run around in several IT studies but none could give me the joy art always has.
So now I'm doing art part time and hoping to finish the script for a webcomic/do commissions, and studying to get better at art, hoping one day to make a living, or at least half a living making art (despite my age of 28). If I can't make a living I still want to get better at my craft.
I came here cause I remember CD when Conceptart.org was still around it was recommended to me more than once for the community. I look forward to sharing my work with you all. Thank you.
