Hello. Nothing really much to say about me. But I suppose I can start off with some basics.

I am an aspiring animator and I have been animating since freshman year of high school. I have only one finished animation, which was completed my sophomore year of high school. It has been posted on Newgrounds.com, a tightly knit Flash community, and I received front page honors as well as a "Daily Second" Award from the site admins and users.
In between that time and now, I have started and stopped several animations, due to uncontrollable events and lack of resources; namely voice actors.

But a short term goal for myself is to start a flash series, and if it becomes popular or if people demand more from myself, its all a bonus.

As of long term goals, I want to start my own independent animation studio, under the same name as this blog. The name is inspired from my first 2 characters I have ever created way back in elementary school, in small episodic comics I made in my spare time. The two characters are the reason for where I am and who I am today.

This blog, I plan to use as a portfolio basically. Post finished works, give artist statements on them, etc. etc.
But I also want to use this site as an archive. There is nothing I love more than digging through old pieces of my favorite artists and gather inspiration from them. To know their roots and see how they developed. And if my dreams take me where I hope, maybe fans of my work will have plenty to dig through some day also.

I do have a separate art blog for my animation classes. I will be posting doodles and sketches on there, through out the semester. So be sure to check it out!

I also have a deviant art, which is used for the same thing, but its a bit more expressive and informal.
