-About Me: I'm Panou, but you may call me whatever suits you~ I've been called Superstar, Panana, Panski, Pastry; there's so many nicknames I have~ xD I'm a middle child out of 10 kids. My hobbies include drawing, taking naps, jewelry-making, crafting, sewing, and baking; basically anything I can do with my hands, I can do it~! xD My favorite colors are pink, black, and red. Silk brand chocolate soymilk and black tea are my ultimate comfort drinks, and my favorite foods include sushi and sweet & sour pork~ Personality-wise, I'm usually calm, polite, loyal, considerate, and reliable, and I tend to treat others the way I would want to be treated~ ;D I may be too polite and gullible for my own good too~ ^^' So don't tease me too much! QwQ I'm not easily offended either, so don't hesistant to talk to me with informal speech or weird kinky topics~ xDDD *laughs*
I've always been drawing for as long as I can remember. You can say that I'm the official artist in my family~ xD I haven't drawn anime until around 5th grade, when I saw my older sister's anime drawings, and I got really inspired by it! You can say that my older sister was my first inspiration ever. ^^ I also give a lot of credit to one of my close friends during middle school. She always had a BUNCH of manga that I could reference to, and that made me improve in a steady, self-taught pace of my own.
Thank you for taking the time to read my artist profile! I hope I can be of service! Let's get along now~ ^^
