Hi! Welcome to my blog, My name is Dakota. 🙂

My interests change often, but some things that haven’t changed is my love for drawing, writing, reading, dancing and playing games (mainly Minecraft.) I’m not a huge fan of sports since i’m terrible at almost all of them, but growing up my dad watched a lot of hockey and because of that I enjoy watching it too.

I like the colours baby pink, baby blue, white and black- I know, I know, the last two are shades, not colours, but they still qualify.

My favourite shows are between Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Family Guy, just thought i’d share.

I’m a huge animal lover- especially for donkeys and cats. Currently I have a dog, cat and hamster but would really like to eventually get a bearded dragon since those bad boys are pretty cool.

I’m great at listening, not so great at talking. I’d like to think i’m funny once you get to know me but i’m not 100% sure that’s true. Since i’m good at listening I was thinking I should become a therapist when i’m older, I also like helping people and the study of psychology interests me. If not a therapist then maybe a writer or something in the art industry.

Anyways yeah, that’s pretty much all about me.

My Favourite Quote-

I picked this quote by Charles Bukowski because I feel that from dealing with great stress and being able to get through it, i’ve grown as a person and learned how to deal with it early on. I’ve learned that i’m a lot more capable than I think I am, and that eventually whatever is stressful will pass and to just be strong as it is happening.

My Favourite Video-

This video isn’t really “meaningful” to me but i’ve watched this so many times and I still giggle every time. I love how upbeat it is and how into the dance and on point all three of them are. Also this gives me really nostalgic vibes, since my sister and I used to play Just Dance all the time when we had the Wii. I’m pretty sure we had all of the Just Dance games now that I think of it.

My Favourite Website-
https://www.instagram.com

I spend a lot of time on instagram either watching videos I find funny, scrolling through different art or photography accounts or talking to my friends. I like Instagram because there is so much variety and accounts made for different things (e.g. food, fitness, memes, school)

I also like using Instagram to connect with people outside of school or creating group chats to talk to several people at once, which is super useful for school projects.

The image above is the image which inspired my current type of art style and what I am working toward being able to draw. The artist is Drawingfears on Instagram and his art work is so beautiful. (I had censor the drawing though which is why there are two wolf emojis where they shouldn’t be.) I came across the picture on my for you page and decided to check out the rest of his art- from there I started to look at the techniques he used, which has really helped me improve.
