sharing some of my art

At one point in my life I was "supposed to be an artist". As a kid I was always told the only thing I was good at was art. So, I decided I had to get pretty good at that if it was my only hope for a future! Once I realized I had a lot more autonamy than I thought, I dropped art completley - resenting it in a way. Over the years, I've gotten back into sketching and illustration in a more lighthearted way. Most of the following is from many years ago, some more recent.
