Why do you make art?

I was bored in class. There is no deeply profound reason that made me start.
Now the story of persisting? That's something interesting. [Ask me. I hate spilling my life story online.]

For the longest time it was drawings of characters I enjoyed. Sonic, Spyro, HTTYD, Inside Out. And for some reason Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2-
Seriously the amount of foodimals drawings in my notebooks...

Then it slowly developed into drawing my OCs [Original Characters]. Who went from looking cool and just existing, into full fledged stories and worlds. Some actively in development still!
That is to say- I am still a big fan of making spin-offs, rather AUs [Alternate Universes] of my favorite media. Such as:

• "New Purposes" - Fiona & Cake / Adventure Time
• "So fish is it?" - Little Nightmares
• "420 Tale" - Undertale
• "Inside I'm Out" - Inside Out

My stories needs...work- that is to say it needs to be put to paper. I need to get that confidence little me had that was just shoving my characters in peoples faces- lol.
Say...Why don't I do that here!
