Whats up everyone. My name is Jacob(CrazyNine). You can call me Nine,Crazy,CrazyNine,Jacob or Jake. It doesn't matter what you call me so yeah. I'm 18 yrs old just got out of high school and I have some spare time on my hands as of now so I'm look for something new to try out. I have messed around in Photoshop a few times but honestly don't know what I am doing. I use to draw but stop after my mom died because I use to draw for her. My skills at drawing where good I won 5 contest in North Carolina before moving to Virgina. I only enter 8 contest because of my mom's health and what not so I never got to really push for anything. Another reason why I joined this community is to pick up on where I left off in my artwork before my mom past away. One thing you will notice my grammar skills are horrible so hehehe yeah. Like I said before I never really messed around with Photoshop so I'm a bit of a n00b and proud of it. I'm willing to learn and give anything a shot. I will accept nothing but strong and critical criticism to improve my ability and knowledge. Any tips,books,etc that will help would be greatly appreciated. Anyways, I will see y'all around and nice meeting everyone here. LATER!
