About Me

Basic Information
I'm a hermit teen currently dwelling in the far west United States! I'm an INFJ who typically comes off as introverted and quiet, though can be quite sociable given the circumstances. My hobbies include drawing, writing, worldbuilding, gaming, riding roller coasters, roller skating, etc.

Media Consumption
Whether it be video games, movies, music, I do have my own unique tastes and interests! In short terms, I'm a big fan of more intellectual, artistic, well composed, and bittersweet media.
✨ Backloggd; Where I list, rate, and review video games
✨ Spotify; Where I display all the music I like

Philosophy
I'm a person who strives to learn and improve at every step. I've spent a lot of time researching philosophy, psychology, and various ideologies as I hope to understand these abstract parts of people to the best of my capability.
Some traits I focus on in both myself and others are empathy, patience, open-mindedness, and honesty/directness. I'm also a very neutral person who believes that everything requires balance. I'm also never a fan of expressing anger through harsh means and highly appreciate when heated situations are handled with a cool-head.
When it comes to religion, I do believe in a higher power and study scripture on occasion. I try my best (since I'm far from perfect) to follow the Friday sunset to Saturday sunset Sabbath, lack of a pork or shellfish diet, not wearing clothes of mixed fabric, not cursing, not making promises but always being true to my word, etc. I will never follow an organized religion, however, as they seem to always cause more issues than they fix. Instead I take what feels morally right from each belief system and implement them into my life.

My Artistic Side

My Digital Art Journey
I've always been known as a creative child by family and friends, but my art journey didn't kick off until May of 2021. Prior to that month, I always felt like I had an abundance of ideas and no skill to capture them. I was fortunate enough to meet a few wonderful growing artists on a site called Pixilart. Realizing that there were so many people just like me, people who were just as weird and creative who wished to improve their artistic skill, I felt inspired to pursue this passion long-term. Thanks to the support of everyone around me, I've been able to continue improving my art skill at rapid rates.I have many people in various walks of life that inspire me to continue this journey, but I'll list a few of my inspirations right here. I consider a lovely artist Frost to be the main inspiration behind what sparked my passion. Without having met her, my art journey likely wouldn't have started. Meeting her lead me to meeting all the other wonderful artists I know, as well as being an overall role model of kindness and compassion. Concerning art skill and style, I'd like to shoutout my mutuals Sketch and Mayu as two particular inspirations. I'd also like to shoutout Bean and Sprout as a couple other good friends who shared a lot of this journey with me. But most importantly, I'd like to highlight my friend Neoluce as a great inspiration to me. Teaching me to be more confident in myself, he's been a huge influence on my growth both as an artist and human being.
I also get inspired by a lot of professional artists of course, but a few honorable mentions are Fumito Ueda, Akira Toriyama and SamDoesArts. My family, especially my dad, as well as other friends whom I didn't mention here all give me a lot of encouragement that keeps me going as well.
For any other inspirations, just look in some of my social media followings to see some of the people who inspire me, both artist and non-artist!My Current Art
My art is fairly stylized, though I'm always flexible, looking for ways to experiment, and trying to improve in any way I can. It's hard to put the style I have into words, so you'll just have to see it for yourself!
In terms of subjects, I usually draw my own characters, mutual artists' characters, and fanart of things I enjoy!
I use Clip Studio Paint EX, an old Dell desktop, and an XP-Pen Artist 15.6 Pro for my digital illustrations.If you'd like to see my artworks, you can go to these accounts:

While visual art shall always be my favorite medium to express myself, I do have a knack for writing. My forte with the art of literature lies in narratives, rants / reviews of things I enjoy, and tutorials. When it comes to narratives, I love writing stories with a little bit of adventure, fantasy, and mystery genres.
I have a couple socials where I post writing-related things if you'd like to see some of my work.✨ Substack; Article SocialConnecting It All With Worldbuilding
Most of the fantasy stories I've come up with also have a world connected to them! While I don't have a lot of information made public about it, the world of Riuanok is brimming with many characters and a most curious history.
You can learn a bit more about it in the socials below!✨ Toyhou.se; Character Information

Social Rules
Response times: I do not mind late response times at all, unless the situation specifically calls for timeliness. I personally tend to respond late to various things, so I also don't mind it whatsoever if other people do it. Do know that I believe in it better to respond late than never to respond... so if you're worried about it being rude to respond late, don't even sweat it! I wanna know what you want to say no matter how long it takes you.Job Questions
What kind of career do you want?
While it's a bit far fetched in this day and age with how many other people wish the same, I would love to have a career in the arts and entertainment field. My main thought is to become a concept artist, although storyboard animation and graphic novel illustration is also within my interest. If I don't get a job within art, however, I would love to be part of an organization that allows me to provide a positive mental health impact to others. When I say this people ask me if I'd want to work in a hospital, but I am far from willing to do so as I hate the thought of needles, surgeries, and other of that sort. At the very least, wherever I work I hope to have a good relationship with all of my coworkers.Are you available for art commissions?
I am NOT open to being on any end of a commission. People who ask me about commissions without any regard to what is said here will likely be ignored. I do want to be open for commissions in a few years, but I'm taking my remaining time as a minor without an official way to transfer money to increase my art's worth further. And please don't try to suggest work arounds... I already know PayPal exists I just don't want to deal with it right now. The only chance you have at commissioning me is if you know me outside of the internet and there's a way to pay me in cash or through my parents.Contact Methods
Discord: I'm most active here, best way to contact me. (username: audtrico / AudTrico#7319. In case link doesn't work)
