Introduction: You Win Some, You Dim Sum

What's up, everybody?

My name is Karen, but a lot of people call me "Boo" and other ghost-related puns. I unironically say things like "you win some, you dim sum," and I look approximately like this:

When I use words, I apparently get "really sarcastic" and "swear too much" and "please stop yelling in this McDonalds, people are staring," so let's do this instead:

I currently work in the entertainment industry, where I do film and television distribution. My day job requires a lot of organization and Excel spreadsheets, which I really enjoy, because I am extremely f*cking pedantic.

In my free time, I like to draw. Here's some stuff I drew.

And some more stuff.

Even ... more?

ALRIGHT, that's enough.

I like bright color palettes and dramatic lighting. My artistic inspirations include: literature, graphic design, printmaking, music, film noir, fashion, the 80s, surrealism, postmodernism, Chinese culture, and American traditional tattoo art.

I hope to start selling prints of my work soon, and to start exploring comics and visual storytelling, which is something I've always been curious about.

I'm here on Steemit to share my work with people, learn me some things, and hopefully make new friends. Special shoutout to my pal and fellow artist @corinneiskorean for dragging me into another zany scheme introducing me to this cool new community — everyone, check her out her webcomic!

Here's my verification. You can see that I really look like a punk rock frat boy Asian mother, and that my hair, my hat, and my tattoos are really Like That™ in real life.

@johntor

hey, thank you for the welcome! glad to be here.

Haha, this is the best introduction that I've read so far. Never stop yelling in McDonalds. Keep posting and I'll keep clicking that upvote.

hahaha, thanks! appreciate it, though maybe i'll change it up and go yell in a burger king tomorrow.

Best introduceyourself post I have read and I've read about 5 total. I do like the infographic and illustration. Makes me think I should have put a little more time into mine. You've impressed me enough to follow. For whatever that's worth.

haha. best out of five isn't that bad! that infographic is actually a little meme i've seen artists do, and you should totally get in on it too. it's a really easy way to introduce yourself and your art style to potential clients!

MxPx rules! That is all.

i know they're pretty iconic, but shamefully, i still have yet to check them out ...

Welcome to Steemit. I think you will like it. There are plenty of people who love talking about cryptocurrencies, but lots of other interests too. Have fun

thanks!! i'm curious about this whole cryptocurrency thing but i don't quite understand it. hopefully i'll learn a little something here.

You have a very interesting character profile... can't wait to see u turn it into visual narrative...

thank you! that's the plan, but there's a lot for me to learn before i can move into comics and visual storytelling, haha.

What a fun introduction. I remember seeing your post around when I joined, but didn't have a chance to check it out because everything was so overwhelming. Anyway, glad to see another illustrator here and wish you the best!
