notorious for mondays and tuesdays

    computer experience:

I first crawled onto the computer at the tender age of 12 or so, and worried my dad that I'd never find my way around it or understand it to be the valuable resource that it was. Three years later he had to limit me to an hour usage a day.
That is to say, I'm pretty comfortable in the medium.



    what are you excited about?

Life, the universe, and everything! I'm excited about digital art because it's my preferred method (and so much cheaper than art supplies, oh man), and I'm excited about this class in particular because that was an interesting introduction, and because I really haven't had that much exposure to to real world of graphic design. I've so far been secluded to my neat and tidy little groups of online artists, which is all well and good, but I'd like to see what it's like from the opinions of people that actually make money from it.
Also? Comics and graphic novels. I'm pretty excited about those in general.



    favorite books & magazines:

I can't immediately think of any magazines I follow, but I've got too many favorite books to count. Catch-22 and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy are probably at the top of the list, which get steadily less classic and more nerdy as it descends.



    favorite websites:

DeviantART makes for an excellent place to put my artwork, although I'm usually too lazy to put it there and instead prefer to up in my blog on LiveJournal. I've also got a pretty regularly updated webcomic on SmackJeeves. These are my most-visited sites, I'd say.
