Finger painting never gets old by Mayonnaise Prince

I'd hardly consider myself an artist, but I do like to draw -- not people, though. I prefer to use my limited art ability to scribble out landscapes, birds, space aliens, and the occasional bowl of fruit, but in the end, I seem to be drawing people the most.
Probably because practice makes perfect.
Well, as close to perfect as you can get.
Anyway~ Being the gay anime faggottard/geek/loser that I am, my art style takes quite a bit of influence from all that Japanese cartoon shit out there, at least, I think it does.
But in the presence of other anime/manga-influenced artists, my art is labeled as "realism" and nobody can possibly imagine how my art has anime anime/manga influence at all.
Then when I meet someone who does draw realistically, they think my art's so ridiculously highly stylized that there's no doubt I'm an Asia-obsessed kook.
The point, though, with all that rambling is that my art style is neither here or there. Kind of like me; I'm a weird sort of person and my interests are all over the place. :)
Oh, and I'm not nearly that cute in real life. As is the way with anime, everyone must increase their good-looking/cute/unrealistic hair points by +9000.

I can definitely see the anime influence, but it's not as exaggerated. I like it.
