who the hell is kian?

          HEWWO!! the name's Kian, some know me as Daniel, DK, Kianzzzzz, SleepyBoi Kian, キアン,and other nicknames people call me. 
 

          Okay, some educational backgrounds. I'm currently a Grade 12 student in University of Makati taking an Arts and Design Track; Visual Arts and Multimedia Arts strand. I also majored Visual Graphics and Design when I was in Grade 8 til' 10.

           Some of my interests hmmmmm, I enjoy binge-watching animes and animated shows that I'm obsessed with and often make arts of them and buy merchandise. I'm into lego collecting and mini figure stuffs. Oh yeah, because I'm obsessed with aesthetically pleasing things, I often make Bullet-Journals or Scrapbook, but most of the time, I apply those things I do in real life digitally in my editing styles.

           So more about my art style. From time to time, I still make adjustments and recap how I make specific facial parts of my characters, mostly the nose. Some people know me as "Round Eyes," "Poker Face," or "Long Neck". What I'm saying is that my art usually reflects my appearance like how I draw my mouth always pouting because I have big lips, and my hair is floofy or spiky, something like that. Even though I have my own art style, I still want to learn more ways of executing it, making proper anatomies for them (which I struggle a lot) and yeah, I hope I can get the knowledge I need and master the things I want to learn as the time comes.

          A little historical background on my art journey. When I was in elementary school, I always entered poster-making contests, even though I only got the 3rd place most of the time, but it was better than nothing. I also joined the Young Artist Club and learned more about drawing and ways of blending using oil pastels, which our adviser also trains us when some of us are going to compete against different schools, etc. When I went to junior high, I still joined a lot of poster-making contests. I even remember one of my classmates right now was in 3rd place and I was in 2nd when we competed in one of the school events.

          Moving ahead to around 2020, this year was the starting point of me getting serious about finding an artstyle. The number of those artistic experiments led me to have four art styles, and I'm glad that I'm very distinct and consistent in using my style. I know that there are still more things to learn about my drawing and, of course, animation, because that's really what I want to master. I was really grateful for that one day, August 24, 2019. I can still remember that day because it's one of the memorable day I've had. It was an event from different vicariates of Guadalupe, so all parishes had this event called "Amazing Race," where we had different things to do in different churches (stations). I met some really nice people that I befriended, like Macie and Ate Christine (our professor's sister). Because of Ate Christine's mentioning that UMak has an animation strand, I was really intrigued. That is why I am currently one of her brother's students.

What is your career dream?

My dream is to be an animator and cartoonist who creates stunning series and shows like my favorite cartoons, which is why I am working hard to study and build up my skills and capabilities in order to better them and learn new things to add to those talents.
