Hello, I'm Lyrl; 20, hitting 21 in a few months or less depending on at which point did you read this bio. I was a graduate from Nanyang Polytechnic, school of interactive digital media and (Animation); currently in the 2nd semester in university, where I'm studying to be a teacher. My major now is in Biology, but that doesn't mean I'm forgetting about art. I try to make time for it every now and then, during weekends when I'm not as busy, or I should say not as lazy- and it helps me keep my stress levels down when I'm being frustrated over school work. That's not to say I dislike my current pursuits either, I love learning new things and I'm fascinated with knowledge, I treat them as a fountain of inspiration which I can draw on for the sake of my art. It's just that sometimes deadlines don't allow me to kick back and relax when I really feel like it.
Art to me is a language, I wish to use it to convey the thoughts I want to express. I wish to draw out the ideas in my head, and show my world to you all.
I don't believe art to be just pretty images. Of course, pretty images are part of it, but it can also be something more than that. I'm still struggling with it though- it seems to me that my expectations seem to skyrocket every time I want to draw something that conveys a meaning- I end up unable to live up to my own expectations and hence create nothing. Therefore my art now doesn't reflect this. I am still going to keep drawing though, and one day art will become the medium in which I can show my mind's world to you all.
