hmmm.. inspiration hmmm...

probably from other artists I know personally (like my mom), they always inspire me to get better coz they're better than me in the first place and I aspire to be atleast at par with them or even better (yeah, I did become better than some of them O_O)... and DBZ. LOL


if they had only known that bad voice acting and endless repeats would have such an impact on nowadays artists. XDDD

hhahahahhahahaha XD... well, can't help it. was very popular back then.

    I started drawing because there was a girl in my school who was SO GOOD at drawing Sailor Moon, and I wanted to have my pictures put up in the hall like her.

    Nowadays, there's a lot of artists I really admire, but have absolutely no reflection on my work. Why is that? Above all though, I would definately love to marry Banksy one day. He's the exact life-satirist that I love to see in literature, that in visual form makes me pee myself; it's just that swell.
    DA-wise, however, I think loish is awesome as well. She draws pinups in such flirty and fun designs [and is pretty herself what the hell], they're always so fun to look at.


I love banksy. I adore the rebellion and his use of media.

Ohes interesting <3 To be honest ive been drawing for a very long time so i cannot recall what inspired me to start drawing when i was very young. Though Anime style in general inspires me though i have a artist who REALLY inspired me, the late Michael Turner.

He was a comic artist a brilliant pencil-er He worked for one of my favourite comic company Top Cow. They saw him at a convention and snapped him up!

Samples of his work [with colourists]

a friend in highschool was completely obsessed with him. O:
I know the artstyle, but I never really paid much attention to american comics. a shame really. gonk

!2ice
had that with transformers. used to watch that when I was 5 I think, but didn't realize it was technically an anime until the movie came out. xDD

but man, the work of takashi murakami is good. how come I never seen it before? gonk

someone I also like, is Takato Yamamoto. bought the book 'allure of pharmakon' at the museumshop of Palais de Tokyo in Paris because the illustrations are just... wow. so detailed and morbid, yet beautiful.

CLAMP inspires me. I love Cardcaptor Sakura and Tsubasa most from that group though. o_O I just wish I was away from chibi and trying to do something more 'arty'. O:

*is going to listen to her inspiration during summer holidays*

May, when're you coming to London again?

I'm not sure what inspired me to draw for the 1st time ever.. I just know when I was a baby I was always drawing. XD
But Sailor Moon inspired me to draw anime style back like in 1998-1999 XD
I believe I was in the 5th grade or so when I started.
Oh boy that was a long time ago

I'm very into the Carnival Venician masquerade masks, along with any traditional garbs from different cultures, but mainly Asian(Korea and Indian) as well as Russian garbs as well. Anything aquatic also inspires me.

Most of the time, I draw so I can make a costume design concept rofl

Kind of like the DBZ people out there, Sailor Moon. XD

But a main inspiration, is I remember we were walking home from school, and my friend was complaining about a jealous mutual friend who had stopped talking to her. And she said "I mean, you don't stop talking to me just because I'm a much better artist than you are..."

(which of course brought into the light why said mutual friend had stopped talking to her...)

Anyway, I'm competitive, and my only thought was "much better? Really? REALLY?!" and...it's inspired me ever since. XD There have been other artists that have inspired me, but really, it's me being competitive that pushes me to get better.
