about me !
my skills
i have been drawing my whole life and i'm self-taught. i come from an artistic family, but i'm the only one in my family who still does art consistently. throughout my life, i have dabbled in traditional art, digital art, animation, video editing, photo editing, and 3d modeling.i consider myself to be pretty good with technology and programs (photoshop, after effects, etc.) than others my age, as i grew up on the computer quite a lot, due to not being able to do "normal" outside, active activities that other kids did when i was little.personal
i attended online school and graduated a semester early! i rarely leave my house because i just don't have that much to do. most of my friends are online on twitter, and i love them dearly :) <3my disability
i have a rare form of muscular dystrophy called rigid spine muscular dystrophy. i rarely talk about what it entails but i do talk about ableism on my socials a lot.i use my electric wheelchair most of the time but i can walk on my own. i use my wheelchair because i do not have enough energy to walk long distances, and if i do fall, i can't get up myself, so it's mainly a safety measure.(not all wheelchair users are completely paralyzed and can't walk!)i try to educate others about disability and ableism, but sometimes i like to just ignore it as it isn't my personal responsibilty. most of the time i just make jokes about ableism and my disability to cope.i will often repost instagram posts and reels on my story from disabled creators that i follow about ableism, that include information that i think needs to be talked about or could help people learn.most. importantly. i'm not inspiring!!! i'm just living and being awesome like everyone else!!!informational website about my disability if you want to learn morethats it x
