Hello!

Hi, this is my first Steemit post....just approved!

I'm an animation artist living in Toronto. I've been waiting a long time for a site like this and others that are popping up.

I hope steemit is the vanguard of content rewarding for the future. Centralized groups like Facebook have had it pretty good till now as people are waking up to the disadvantages of "free" and being THE product.

Anyway, enough with all that! I eventually want to make a living making art for people who want it. Maybe even make some short films too.

At the moment, I make a living working in the animation industry. I specialize in 2D stuff; layout, animation (hand drawn) - that sorta stuff. I've been developing my skills in digital painting recently too. I'd like to marry my hobbies and skills to produce illustrations. In particular, fantasy illustration for D&D type stuff. But I still love animation, so I'll continue to swing between both. Maybe steemit and DTube can help out. I hope so.

Here's an example; something I drew a few years ago. It's unfinished and I've learned so much since I did it. Someday I'll take the time to finish and refine it.

I swing between cartoony and realistic, depends on my mood and what I'm trying to learn. Anyway, check out my professional portfolio if you're so inclined.

Cheers!
