:bademoticon: Let's welcome another DA starter!

Hi! Please introduce yourself?

Hi! My name is Naokari! Im from Spain and I am 19 years old ! . Currently Im an artist student in Fine Arts who wants to become a great digital artist ^^

What are your interests?

Besides drawing on my pc and my sketchbooks, I love playing videogames , watch anime, cartoons and speedpaints, read mangas , listen and helping others, sometimes listen to music (only from animes and games ), I like to improve my skills and try new things , I love teddy bears ( I have a lot xD ) and finally I love dreaming , because I like being in fantastic worlds, in my imagination, where everything can be real, I also enjoy my dreams because I interact with all the characters that I have created , it may sound strange , but in this way the personality of my characters is created alone

How did you find Deviantart and how did you decide on your username?

The first time I saw DeviantArt was when I was 10 years old, Thanks to a very beautiful drawings of ZantChan ^^. I always wanted to get into DevianArt,

but I was too afraid to show my drawings to people ... until one day, I don’t know why, I had the courage to tell this fear besides asking for their artistic experience to a great artist , Lighane, which gave me a lot of encouragement and courage to show my drawings to the world and improve day by day, thank you very much Lighane ^^.

My name comes from the fusion of Naoko and Hikari, Nao-kari, because those are two Japanese names that I've always liked a lot in addition to its meaning ^^

How would you describe your art style?

I think my art style is a fusion of anime and cartoon, but more of anime , I don’t know exactly but anyways I think my art style still needs to change a lot.

Could you tell us a bit about how you got involved into art and if you have any goals as an artist?

I have been drawing since I was 3 years old, from there I never stopped drawing. I liked creating my worlds, drawing myself as a magical girl, and especially drawings that were given to my friends and my family. Drawing was something I always enjoyed and so I decided to go ahead with it (even though many people told me that drawing was useless).

And here I am, meeting a lot of new artists falling for his drawings and learning from them and seeing a lot of speedpaints, A LOT OF speedpaints xD

I have a lot of goals and dreams I want to fulfill, I doubt whether be (and if I can ...) a freelance or working in a fixed location with a team, but some of the things I've always wanted to do are illustrations for video games (such as splasharts from league of legends), designing characters for some series or games or sell posters and art books with my drawings

We love fun facts - Do you have any for us?

ok , it’s time for laughter xD
I have the syndrome of Ctrl Z , especially in my art classes, (fucking life xD)
Before being an artist I wanted to be a military or a magical girl ( but very seriously )
I like to wear hats with the shape of an animal face (especially teddy bears) and Teemo's hat .
Do you know who is Kumana? It is my imaginary polar bear friend. Yes, I have an imaginary friend.

I like to put rare voices and I think I will not say more because I do not want to sound like crazy xD

What is your least favorite thing to draw and why?

I don’t like to draw realistic people, I find it very boring , I prefer drawing people more expressive and special because in this way we can see how his personality is, and also the character physically

Thank you very much for the interview! Is there anything you’d like to say as we close up?

Yes ^^ , At First, thank you very much for making me this interview, It was fun. Special thanks to all the people who support me with comments, favorites and watches, and I encourage all people that want to become artists to go ahead and never give up, give the best of yourself every day!
