1. Impressionism is my favorite style of painting, but I rarely use it myself - I find it difficult to do anything other than realism.

2. I prefer oil over acrylic paint, because I mostly do portraits, and I find it difficult to mix the shading of skin tones when acrylic paints dry so quickly.

3. I almost never blend when I'm drawing in pencil. I like for my strokes to show.

4. I'm already running out of things to say, how will I make it to ten?

5. I like drawing celebrities the best, because they always look so good in pictures, which makes it easier to make them look good with my pencils.

6. I hate drawing from my imagination or my memory, unless I'm just doing something cartoon-y.

7. People say hands and ears are the hardest to draw, but I think drawing hair is a total bitch.

8. I try to never draw landscapes, because I'm way too much of a perfectionist; I would feel the need to try to render every single leaf or blade of grass! So I just stay away from that genre....

9. One of the first things I remember drawing was a family of alligators who walked on two legs and wore clothes. I also drew their house, in cross-section form. They were kind of like Egyptian hieroglyphs, in that their heads were turned to the side, while their bodies were facing forward....

10. It is not widely known that I have also dabbled in sculpting. But it's a lot more expensive to do than drawing or painting, so I've never kept up with it. I made this awesome tiger sculpture in high school, but someone stole it after it came out of the kiln  D`:
