I am a self taught Texture/ 3d artist, I've been drawing since I was a young child obsessed with drawing animals and creating characters. for many years I wished to be a cartoonist and have always had a deep passion for character design. I discovered the virtual world of SecondLife in my teens and immediately fell in love with the creative passion that fueled every corner and endless creative possibilities. I started out texturing as I had no skill set in any 3d or animation programs. I must admit texturing over 3d objects for years has made my original drawing talent become rusty! after several years I yearned for the ability to take my skills further, I had many great artist I looked upto at that point, that were creating amazing 3d work, and I always wanted to one day create my own. I started out makign my own store called MorbidEmotion, and later on changed my name to AppyBottoms once I discovered a community like myself, that was in love with nature and animals ... later on as my projects grew and became over crowded I decided to branch off to a second store and name it The Velvet Vixen, And here I am still learning and still working to try new methods new things and bring my creativity to life, not only for myself but the people around that enjoy it as well! <3
