10 Facts About Me
This entry will be based on one of the prompts for Blaugust week 2! I figured it would be fun to list some facts about myself today. In case anyone wants to get to know me a little more!
- Tell us ten random facts about the human behind the blog.
Nutrition is very important to me. I’m on the Keto diet. I may be referring to it a diet here, when really it’s more of a lifestyle at this point. I usually eat more fish, vegetables, and drink plenty of water to make sure I’m getting the substance I need.
I do Indigenous beadwork, I like to incorporate pops of color and animal charms into my patterns. So far I’ve made a variety of bracelets, earrings and keychains.
For my traditional art I usually draw with a pencil or pen in my sketchbooks. This year I’ve been trying to get into mixed media art. Watercolors, oil pastels, alcohol markers, plus color pencils are all mediums that I have used.
My favorite type of art is visual arts. It’s most inspiring to see what other artists have done to create their pieces. A few of many inspirations would be J.C. Leyendecker, Allan Houser, Jared Cullum, and James Gurney.
For digital art I use the Procreate app on my IPad Pro. I’m not as experienced with drawing on a tablet, but the learning experience has been worth the journey!
I spend most of my free time in my room. Creating art, watching internet videos, reading or journal. I consider my bedroom to be my safe place. Also!!! It’s the inspiration behind my blog’s pink and white color palette! Since that’s where I’m always writing from.
My dream job is to be an illustrator or character designer. I know, the predictable choices. I would just love to be hired to help others make their stories feel alive. Or I could develop my own original ideas. A comic would be awesome!
I watched the entirety of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul in less than a year. Both shows were life changing. Watching all of those seasons felt very immersive. Since I live in NM…where most of the scenes were filmed. I even visited the Breaking Bad store in Albuquerque once!
I could rant about Breaking Bad for hours, especially if you bring up Walter White’s tragic story. I can’t stand that old man. Or most of the characters. The show stressed me OUT.
My favorite ice cream flavor is vanilla. I think it is the perfect compliment to another treat! I always add pastel sprinkles to mine. Yes, everything in my bowls is sugar free.
