I just got my hair cut, and the lady accidentally gave me a ‘hime style’. I have no idea how to deal with my new bangs, they refuse to lay any which way! You always have such nicely styled hair- what is your trick for keeping it under control?

Haha, I had to google ‘hime style’ to understand what you meant.  That’s quite an adventurous cut; not many people can pull it off.  So props to you.  If your bangs aren’t staying put I’m assuming you don’t have naturally straight hair…?  If so, you could just leave them to go with the natural wave of your hair.  Or you could straighten/blow-dry them straight.  Or you could sweep/clip them off to the side?  I think blunt bangs are gorgeous, though.

As for my hair — haha, I honestly don’t do anything.  I’m flattered you think it’s ‘under control’.  Sometimes when I shower, it becomes quite wavy after I blowdry it (my hair has a natural wave), but after I sleep on it the strands usually flatten a little.  Most of the time I forget to blowdry, though.  I think it’s about getting a cut that suits your hair type — thus minimal maintenance!

your art is amazingly hawwesome!

thank hyyou!

Hey ma sista from anotha mista!

Yo, brutha from anotha motha!

wow, your talent is absolutely limitless! You keep inspiring me to work hard on my own stuff! thank you!

Thank you so much!  I’m so glad I could inspire you!! :)

sice when did you started taking serious this of drawing ???

My perception of taking my art “seriously” is constantly changing.  When I was twelve, I thought I was taking it “seriously” because I was making a concerted effort at drawing anime.  Then when I was fifteen, I thought I was taking it “seriously” because I was using my tablet and trying out digital art for the first time.  However it wasn’t until October last year that it finally hit me that I’ve never taken my art seriously.  While I complained about not improving fast enough, I never really practiced.  Apart from little half-arsed scribbles all over the place, I only drew a few times a week.  I presented a finished piece about six times a year.

So if I were to redefine the meaning of “serious” then I guess I didn’t start taking things seriously until the end of last year.  Since then, I’ve really made a push in my art.

are you single??? I ask this because you are a beatifil girl

No, I’m not.  And thank you. :$

How do you find time to study and create such beautiful art? I am really trying to focus on art as my passion, but i struggle to find time- I do make time, but life is sooo busy- what is your secret??  xo Ezzimo

My secret is that I don’t study.  :D  Haha, but in all seriousness, I hardly think I draw at all!  There are people  who produce artwork every single day — even with busy lives.  It’s all about time management, I guess.  If you can dedicate at least a tiny half-hour to your art every day, it’ll do wonders for your improvement.  Maybe wake up a bit earlier or go to bed a bit later?  Or instead of watching tv/playing games/chatting on MSN, you can dedicate that time to art instead.

(And in all honesty, I should practice what I preach.  But I’m a lazy bastard.)

Oh my god, nice formspring idea. Can I copy this? XD

Lol, sure!  (Although I’m sure you have anyway, hahah.)

How old were you when you decided to pursue an artistic career?

Haha, well.  From the age of about 3 I kept blabbering about how much I wanted to become an artist.  But it was really towards the end of highschool (so I was 17-18) that it hit me.

whoawhoawhoa, i’m in love with your style! you don’t have a lookbook i could stalk do you? :) xoxo

Oh, thank you! :$  And no, sorry.  I don’t have a lookbook code so I can’t join.  And also I’d be too embarrassed to constantly take photos of myself.  Drawings are so much easier… lol.
