Tia's Story

My passion is two dimensional art. I feel so excited while drawing. I mostly draw Japanese anime. I have been drawing anime ever since I remember. I have written two American manga books and I am presently working on my third book. I have two boxes of my old drawings. I often spend hours in my room working on my books and drawings. Recently, I was encouraged by my mother to draw a portrait of my sister, her friends and myself. I didn't want to because I didn't think I could do it. However, after working on the outline for a half an hour, my family was shocked and surprised and told me how good it was. I was scared to try drawing the faces because I didn't think I could get it right, but my mom encouraged me to try anyway. And I was surprised at how well I did. I got a lot of compliments on the drawing and my mom and all her friends told me how talented I am. But I still prefer drawing and writing Manga stories. I draw manga all the time for relaxation.
