Hi steemit I am a concept artist, a painter and more. Former Head designer of Fresh Design studios. A pro painter since the age of 16.

Who I am:

I am an artist and everything you will see on my post is own original art-work from my poetry to my sculptures and paintings. Mainly produced during the last 2 weeks. Consider this as a mini bio and a short briefing of what I am contributing daily on steemit. Photogrpher is @avtzis.petros close friend and talanted artist.

You might notice that I sometimes miss a line here or there.

I have already verified my self here. In past posts but what the heck. Here it goes again.

I have created enough original content through my little time here and I would like at this point to properly introduce my self to steemians and claim your follow. Who I am is not that important as to what I do. But let's start of who I am, I am a free lance artist a 37 year old guy Named Angelo Borg Rossidis.
I love dogs by the way...

and I play some games from times to times ( i also do concept arts for textures)

I enjoy photography as well, I have a Nikon d3000 but I am not a professional, by any means.

---

My ethnicity is multinational, I am coming from UK from my fathers roots and Greece from my mothers all of my grand fathers and mothers where from islands:
UK citizenship from Malta grondmother, Santorini Greece, Syros Greece and Constantinople Prigipo.
I am here to promote my self and my work so let's go to what I do.

What I do.

You can only expect original content and artwork out of me.
I was working as a professional painter since a boy, I was first employed and paid to paint at the age of 16 years old, by the artist Christina Dimitrousi as an painter and then as a Head concept artist of Fresh Design The official site is under reconstruction and it will be up again soon here.

I have quit professional painting to get a second "real" job since austerity crippled Greece, that with my DBI have crippled me for years, I cannot longer do labor jobs. I am trying to find my way through networking and social media though to return back to painting. I have just started promoting my work, I was always against self promoting and I was thought of it as a devious act (how full I was) if you do not appreciate your selves no one will. If I want to achieve my goals I have to become my own manager.

Steemit has changed the way I see the world and my perspective to what is important and what is not. My plans is not just to promote my self but everyone I think is worthy and talented, I have already encounter some very talented individuals here on our community which I am following day and night it is really awsome seeing people evolving their skills live. This is a new era for arts.

As you can tell by now I love arts, my next step will be to create some videos of my work with oil paintings and more to upload them here through my freshly made YouTube channel. The channel will be dedicated to painting, drawing and sketches in general. I am planning to have my first upload at some point in the first 15 days of September, I am giving you the link here for anyone interested to keep an eye on my future work.

Those are unknown waters for me. But one of my greatest skill is my fast adoption to whatever I put my focus on. I hope I can be an inspiration for others on my way to make my dreams of living out of professional painting again a reality.
My specific skills comes out of a well trained brain over the curse of my life, and even though I am not a native English speaker, I believe I am not offending the Language or at least I am trying my best not to.

Recently I have found out of this cute app made from you @nphacker. Which grade me higher Than I was expecting ever to be. Above Leon Tolstoy, if that is even possible I am planning to rise that as well. That is why I have started writing poetry and novels as you will read later on, and I will welcome you to give them a read. I know there will be mistakes. But I aim to get better out of this process, as always I will try my best until I can at least get a step above of where I stand.
