# About me
Welcome to my page!I’m an illustrator in his twenties who was born and raised in the Ottawa/Gatineau area of Canada. After receiving a BSc in Environment and working in a small office for a couple years, I decided to switch gears and devote myself to what has always been my true passion: art.
I'm always excited to hear about potential work/commissions, so if that interests you, I can be reached either here on deviant, or through the email address found on my website .
Also, I have a facebook page that could really use some more love. In all seriousness, that's the place to be for my latest sketches, thoughts, and work-in-progress pieces.

2018 BINGE DRAW 31 PICTURES - LIVESTREAM (ONLINE):
Binge Inktober Livestream (ONLINE)
https://join.me/Inktober2018
COUNTDOWN
When school breaks (ex: Spring Break, Winter Break) come, I can -maybe successfully probably- do a Join-Me (livestream) for those who have wanted to watch me draw live. I have a few projects I wanted to show you guys to push you off the edge and finally say "Ah naw, man. Let's go get some grape juice instead of watching this dillydallying."
Now is the chance to show you guys what I am really not capable of.
Binge Inktober Livestream (OCT 13 | 12 PM CST)
^ I will be drawing all 31 Inktober pictures for this livestream on my iPad Pro, because I do not have any other time to do it (I will wing the theme for myself; I do not know; YOL

Were you busy with making that Steam game (if so understandable. If you have another excuse, still understandable).
I have been busy with studying for the university. I am going to (or have decided) to get an art degree after this. I am sort of going down your path, but this time, I want a degree in both science and art, lol!
Also, I am still sad over the US election results, ahhaha. ONE DAY, YOU MIGHT SEE ME IN CANADA INDEED.
