Artist | Hobbyist | Varied

Ireland

I am a self taught digital and traditional Artist, who also has somewhat of an interest in photography and sculpting.
The main subjects in Art I tend to focus on, are humans and the occasional canine.
The only program I use to draw my digital art is called Gimp 2.0, and it is quite similar to photoshop apart from a few minor features missing and the fact that is free.

I get quite a number of personal messages sent to me here on DA regarding how it is I learned to draw, and people looking for 'pointers' or 'tips.
All I have to say is practice.
I cannot stress that enough. Practice til' your fingers feel numb.
When that happens, you are about half way done.

My interests are few and far between, but the ones I do have, I am very passionate about.
Those interests include art, as you may have noticed, and Music.

Music has always been a huge part of my life, and it has always been Rock music from the very start. Black Veil Brides are my absolute favorite Band, and Iv'e been a 'fan' since they first started out.
The majority of my art here currently focuses around Black Veil Brides, and the main people from the Band I focus on drawing are Andy Biersack and Ashley Purdy.
This is by no means an act of favoritism over the other members, it is simply because I find their facial structures to be both interesting and challenging.

Just because you have succeeded in drawing the face of a particular person, does not mean that you can any person after that.
At all.
Every person has a definite facial structure of their own and have key features that nobody else has.
The art behind drawing them is being able to single out the features and getting them perfect, for every individual


"Stand up for what you believe in. Even if it means standing alone.

"Yeah Jake and Jinxx play guitars, Andy sings, I run around topless and play for the ladies."

"If you don't love music there's something wrong with your face!"

"If you look hard enough for something, you'll probably find it even if it's not really there..."

"As we grow up we learn that even the person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it gets harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love,
so take many pictures, laugh too much and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is one minute of happiness you'll never get back." -Andy Biersack

"It's not rape if you yell surprise.." - Andy Biersack

as successful as you are, there will always be those
ignorant haters who don't understand." ~ Jinxx
