Devicorn

Devicorn has re-landed!

I've always loved anything arty, and continued to do so all throughout my school years, uni years, and even now still try and draw/paint/do something creative when I get the time between my job and my horse. Yep, I have a horse, and he's the best little beastie there ever was!

Dragons are...yeah they're kinda the only thing I can draw with any degree of confidence. I can kinda do people now, after a bit of practice, and am getting better at other animals (mainly fantasy animals), but dragons will always be my preferred creature. I just love how you can make them look however you want and don't (usually) have to stick to anything other than 'it has to have wings, four legs, a long tail, and it has to breathe fire'. I mean, I guess it's the same for other animals, but...yeah, dragons are my thing!

My preferred medium to work in depends on what I'm doing, and what I feel will suit the piece. If it's something quick then I usually stick with pencils, though my version of quick is...not so quick lol. Something that I want to have a bit of fun with is usually chalk, and something that I want to really challenge and push myself with is paint, specifically acrylics. If I really had to choose just one, though, I'd have to go for paint. It's the one I've been working with most at the moment, and I've come to really appreciate its versatility!

I usually do paintings and drawings and the like just for the hell of it, but the hell of it usually ends up running away with me and turning what was meant to be a small project into three massive pieces that will take years to complete, but honestly I don't mind. I now have the luxury of time in which to do what I want, when I want, so that's exactly what I do.

I'm also a writer and avid reader, which is where I get most of my ideas from, and is what I spend the rest of my time doing. As you can probably tell, I'm not very 'left brained' as it were. Maths and stuff like that is just one big NO from me, and has always been that way. Luckily for me I'm now free to pursue whatever I want to do with my life, so I've promptly forgotten most of the mathsy stuff taught to me at school in favour of learning new painting techniques and meanings of more words.

I could say a hell of a lot more about myself, but better to leave some stones unturned so you guys out there stay curious, eh? Any questions about stuff I've not mentioned, or only briefly mentioned, feel free to ask!
