# About me

I am currently a college student pursuing a degree in elementary education. I have always had a passion for reading books and from this came art. The Redwall series by Brian Jacques was so descriptive and filled with imagery that I knew I had to draw what I saw in my mind. The Lord of the Rings series among many other fantasy novels also inspired my imagination. Art is just one medium that I let that out with. I also love to play the piano and have done that for about three years.

I have always had a natural "talent" for drawing, but nothing extraordinary. All I know is that if you put enough time into your artwork, you can produce some great results. If I actually had the time to do more art I would be much better, but I try and take time to practice.

You're quite welcome I like to make sure people with talent know they have it I'll definitely check it every once and while to see if you've done any Redwall art. How long have you been a fan?

Callillad In reply to LizBoudreauArt [2013-01-20 18:57:32 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. I have been a fan of Redwall ever since elementary school when my 5th grade teacher introduced me to the books. Redwall has been a part of my life for many years now.

Most definitely! Middle school was a tough time made a little bit easier with the help of Jacques courageous mice. I read those books so many times during those years. The Redwall series made me realize that I loved to write and make art (obviously). Even in college I still read them in my down-time if I am tired or stressed. Actually, the most recent book I finished was Mattimeo. When I finish my degree and become an elementary school teacher I will try my best to give my students a love for reading. Reading has made me so much smarter and more creative than I ever thought I could be. I found some Redwall teaching guides (basically ways to teach the books to a class) and I hope that one day I can read the books to my class.

I would love to post some Redwall art, I actually have some that I made in middle school, but I am a little bit too busy to really draw something from the books right now. It is definitely on my mind though, and I will try to draw something!

Have an awesome day my friend.
-Greg

Me too! I think I started either in 4th or 5th grade. I think you would agree with me in saying that the books have changed our lives Jacques is such a great writer!

You're welcome! I was astounded by the Hobbit drawing and I knew that I had to give you a watch so that I could possibly learn a few things from your work. You are an amazing artist and I can tell that you are willing to put time and hard work into your art.
