Note MeI have to admit it-- I'm a phony. Or, at least I feel like one...
I've been drawing for as long as I can remember. I have clear memories of drawing R2-D2 and C-3PO and TIE Fighters and X-Wings after having seen Star Wars.
From there I discovered comics and began creating my own stories and characters.
My whole life has been about creating art. But I don't feel like an artist.
I look at the people here and the people around me in the "industry" and I just see amazing, raw, jaw-dropping talent that I feel I could never genuinely create myself.
It seems so easy and natural to everyone else, and I have to admit that I'm envious.
When I draw something-- even after having been doing this my whole life (and professionally for 15 years)-- I still constantly struggle with everything.
Faces, expressions, clothing, poses, lighting, anatomy, perspective... I struggle my way through it all. Well, in actuality, I feel like I'm faking my way through it all. Like I'm not a "real" artist like everyone else. No, I'm just faking it good enough to maybe, just maybe, fool everyone else into thinking I'm one, too.
I wish I could be a "real" artist. I wish it would just flow. I wish I could sit down and draw something and not have to struggle and erase and feel frustration and disappointment from the minute I start working on something.
Alright, boo-hoo, poor me, right?
Granted, there are those times when things do flow. When they do come to me. When I don't have to work as hard. And it's like a miracle when it happens. It's a complete gift when I draw something and actually like it. (Usually I just settle for not hating it.)
So, yeah, I feel like a phony. A fake. But, I'm just gonna keep doing it anyway. I'm going to keep learning from my mistakes and continuing to teach my self everything I can. (Yes, I'm an all self-taught artist.) I will keep striving to create pieces that I might actually like and be proud of.
I will continue to try and be a "real" artist. And I hope you will all continue to inspire me.

My name is Drew Edwards, I'm the writer of Halloween Man. I've been looking over your deviantart gallery, and I really like it. We've got some stuff lined up that we think would suit your style, and we'd like to know if you'd be interested in working with us - and if so, if you'd have the time to do so. We can't offer any money, we can promise exposure and a good time.
If you want to see what we're about, take a look at some recent stories:
