Description HAHA WOW. Look at that... interesting art at the top there. It seems like I had a really hard time drawing ears for the longest time. |D And originally Alex had green eyes and for some reason I started drawing her with blue eyes. I dunno how that happened but you can see it here.

I noticed that ever since I started drawing, I was more interested in drawing Original Characters and not so much fan art. And I think it's still the same now. Also, I think the biggest improvement was between 2007-2008 because in 2008 I actually started drawing at a table instead of sitting with my tablet in my lap. xD That's why all my lines were all sketchy. And also that was when I went to college and learned the importance of DPI/Resolution!

For the 2008 description, TWEWY stands for "The World Ends With You". Incase you're wondering. lol It's a game for DS.

I don't know what else to say, I think it pretty much explains it all. If you have any questions just ask. :]

Hm, just another comment that I've noticed. You said you started using TWEWY coloring style and you did, but if you look at the art in that year left to right, I noticed that you blended it slightly and made it a little different.

The first two are very obvious, the third not so much, than the fourth is when I notice it's starting to change...

It's good, I think

Well I meant just the usage of the black shadows and I think that the more I did it, the more I made it into something of my own to compliment my line art.
