Just something I feel like doing it:
1. What is your favorite subject to draw?
My favorite subject to draw? Well, I´d say it would be people, of course, because people is what I like the most, but people with other things to say, such as diseases, etc.
2. What is your most common choice in 2-d media?
Totally pen, I almost always draw just with a pen, and pencil, maybe. And maybe red color.
3. Anything you refuse to draw?
I totally refuse to draw anime or cartoon fanart. Because I think when you draw fanart from other art, your style gets lost.
4. Real anatomy or cartoon physics?
Totally real anatomy, but with a cartoon mix and creating something you can see real, but without copying reality and neither going to cartoonish.
5. Which is more important - solid inking skills or solid color theory?
I think inking is the basic, but it´s just part of sketching, so both are totally important for a masterpiece, but not always, in my own opinion, I would choose inking skills.
6. Photoshop or PSP? Illustrator or Painter?
Photoshop, but I still rather traditional art.
7. Markers - Prismacolor or Tria?
I haven´t tried Tria, but I think prismacolor is really cool for everything.
8. Paints - oils, acrylics, or watercolors?
I don´t have experiences professional painting, when I was young I used a lot the oil painting and I have always hated acrylics. But now at day I think watercolors are the cooler, no matter I don´t really know how to use them in a worth way.
9. Ever imitate a popular style of art? (anime, disney, comic book...)
Yeah, when I was like 7/8 I used to draw anime, but always failed at that. Now I hate it.
10. How would you define your "style?"
Traditional art, a mixture of realistic and cartoonish, but always trying to keep my own style.
11. What is one area of drawing that you need to improve in?
Hands, profiles, eyes, all the anatomy to be honest. I´m trying to improve in my coloring skills and I´m hoping I buy a Tablet soon. (it would be the third lol)
12. When did you start drawing as a hobby? (we all drew when we were little)
Drawing started for me since I was like 3. But my passion for drawing and for art in general started when I was 6 and not I think I´m more into music, photography and literature, but drawing will be always be part of my life. And actually I´m trying to continue with drawing because for a while I forgot about drawing and I think we need this boat take a right way again.
13. What kind of sketchbook do you have? Brand? Size? How old is it?
I have not sketchbook, I always draw in lose papers and I think that´s the best for me.
14. How many sketchbooks have you had previous to this?
I had like 4 sketchbooks in my whole life, but I have a lot of notebooks which I use the most for drawing, usually my school notebooks.
15. How many sketchbooks do you go through in a year?
It was the year when I decided to have sketchbooks, and I had 4 in total.
16. #2 yellow pencil or a clicky pencil?
I don´t know.
17. What kind of eraser do you use?
I´m not that selective on erasers, I normally use my pencil eraser or faber castell.
18. Who are your artistic influences?
Kustra and Naomi D.
19.What books would you recommend to aspiring artists?
I have never read a book about drawing. I will totally recommend deviantArt tutorials, but practicing is always crucial.
20. Do you have any favorite online tutorial sites?
No.
21. What is the most money you've ever made on one drawing / illustration / painting?
Maybe 200 to 300 dollars.
22. What do you hope to accomplish with your art? Do you want to go anywhere with it in life?
I don´t think I will get far in life with my drawings, but I´m hoping I don´t lose my skills, if I can call them like that, and I hope it will always be a hobby, but how I want to study medicine, then maybe I won´t get many free-time.
23. Finally, why do you draw?
I draw because art is my passion, because it express how my world is, what I think about art is that is the most beautiful and honest way of communicating, and is really pure. For me art is connected to my music and my writing. And it completes what I love of life.
i love your drawings.

love of same genders is the purest love, because it is not driven by the reproduction instinct.
