I am a geek in all senses. Doctor Who, Sherlock, Merlin, Black Books, IT crowd,White Collar BTVS/ATS, Criminal Minds, Supernatural, anime, LOTR, Star trek, avengers, batman you name it. I use to have a lot of time on my hands, but ever since I ran off to the east coast, My life has been filled to the brim. With Charcoal. And Gouache. Ahh RISD, where sleep goes to die. I am going into Illustration, and hope to some day either illustrate comics or go into Visual affects. Besides my obsession with british tv- shows and cartoons/comic books, I am also a massive movie buff. My favorite film is Hunchback of Notre Dame and my favorite comic book is V for Vendetta.
I am a lover of the absurd.

Can you imagine if this happened to any of us? As artists in an age where the definition of art no longer has meaning, we, or well I, I guess, are constantly riddled with self doubt. Is this original? Is this great? Is this beautiful?
What if, one day, while suffering from a particularly dreadful anxiety attack over your piece, a man whisks you away to the future, and shows you not only your life’s work, but a crowd of people waiting around to see it. The though that, years from now, you will still be remembered. Still be loved, that your work, your works that you slaved over, loved, hated, are still cared for.
I think I would break down.
It’s unimaginable.
