Drew this about two months ago, but sums up a lot about myself.

A few words about my future goals: I want to be an art teacher and teach kids they suck and motivate them to try harder and learn. I want to be a comic artist that draws comics that teach things. But at the moment, I'm studying Pharmacy Technology so I can get a real job. Top that off with me wanting to be a medical illustrator too, because I'm not fond of color coded medical texbooks and they're uesless the moment you see a REAL dead person.

My drawing arsenal includes pen, ink, and Copic Markers. In the pen and ink section, you can include grey washes and brush pen work. A lot of my stuff is black and white because I had a very inspirational teacher at school who was an amazing artist but colorblind, and a number of my favorite artists draw black and white comics. Some huge inspirations are Jonathan Wayshak, Q. Hayashida, Tsutomu Nihei, Kokuzawa Yosuke, and a number of people on this site. 

I am also very angry. Or I think I am, everyone says I'm not though. I write a series called Angry Artist Alley: http://jackieloart.com/blog/angryartistalley/ Which is basically me writing about my experience in artist alley at conventions. I am not fond of the new generation of cosplayers and artists in conventions because of their ignorance and behavior, so right now I'm planning out a comic that teaches people about how to behave at anime conventions.

I love Chex Mix and I recently got interested in Opera music. Hmm...I think that's about it. Not sure what to say :0

brilliant. Now I shall steal that idea for the future.

I've never gone to SDCC although I wish I could. I don't know where to sell my soul to get a ticket. I'll be at APE though

this is like the first time i have ever seen gabo post on this site 0_0

My new wifi adapter is reliable enough to upload videos over three minutes, and so I can finally upload some of my longer recordings of my drawings

I know most of you don't use traditional media, but hope it sparks some interest in trying new things :3

tried to fix:

Typography and logos are my weak point but ever since I started lettering digitally I've been practicing more. I'll need to ask for more advice and pointers from you in the future Bent, I never realized the importance of typography till i started doing more comics.

Kozi is gonna kill me lol XD
