THE EARLY DAYS

Before I even applied my artistic and design skills to a digital software on a computer, I started off by hand-drawing around the age of seven years old. I can remember spending hours doodling on paper, book covers, school backpacks, my bedroom wall, and so much more things that my young mind at the time felt could use an artistic improvement. By the time I reached my teenage years, I started entering international drawing competitions against other young artists from various countries. No matter how much contestants I was facing, I would always place in the top 3, who were rewarded with large trophies that reached up to my waist in height. The trophies were beautiful and shiny, but it was also a rather clear symbol of the gift God had given to me, and after not knowing what I wanted to be when I grew up, it was in those moments I knew I wanted to pursue art and design as a professional career.
