My name is Kelly. I'm a pretty quiet person. I like to enjoy the simple things in life, and I try not to let too much get to me. I love to relax at home or go out with my friends when I'm not at work or school. I love watching classic Disney movies and Pixar Animation films.
I've been drawing all my life as a hobby, but I didn't take it seriously until my freshman year of high school. By the end of that year, I discovered that it's something that really makes me happy and helps me express myself. I hope to have an art-based career in the future.
