I have been doing art for over 24 years now and didn't take it seriously until the last few years. I have completely switched over to being a digital artist and the only time I pick up a pen or pencil to draw something is to do a quick sketch to get some thing clear in my mind on what the final result should look like.
If you want to look at more of my work then go to http://newerastudios.deviantart.com. This is where the bulk of my work is right now.
