I am into digital painting, traditional pencil art and DSLR photography.
Since lately, I've also been trying with water color pencils.
I draw since I was a little boy and strong enough to hold a pencil. Actually I started with foil markers and copying motifs of the ninja turtles onto foils. 5 to 7 years ago, I bought my first and still used graphics tablet Wacom Graphire 4 Classic. Today I have a lot of practise with it and GIMP, an amazing freeware. But still a lot to learn. An interesting fact, that you can never really stop getting better at arts.
Progress is unstoppable, as long as you keep going. Even the best among us still grow...
Cheers, Alex.
