#deviantartistquestionnaire

How long have you been on DeviantArt?
4 years.

My username is basically what my younger sister (9 years my junior) used to call me when she was a baby, it's based from my name Rebekah - Bekky - Ekki.
Describe yourself in three words.
Awkward, Compassionate, Earthy.
Are you left or right handed?
Right boring...
What was your first deviation?
Honestly I struggle to remember yesterday let alone 4 YEARS AGO, but I'm confidant it was a traditional piece as I was yet to own a Wacom tablet when I first joined.
What is your favourite type of art to create?
Digital, and Animation.
If you could instantly master a different art style, what would it be?
ANIMATION!!!

<da:thumb id="150003896"/> (I still ADORE this artist)
What type of art do you tend to favourite the most?
Digital
Who is your all-time favourite deviant artist?
Damn...probably has to be Loish, I know that she's super popular and alot of artists will have the same answer but I suppose that's because she's just so brilliant at what she does. It also comes down to my favourite art styles, digital and animation, of which Loish does both.

Close 2nd HAS to go to Vizzie Pop (VivzMind) however with her epic, effortless and fluid animation skills (SERIOUSLY!):

Special mention to these fabulous artists too though!:

If you could meet anyone on DeviantArt in person, who would it be?
Loish, Wie-e, VivzMind and probably, no DEFINITELY, MANY more...
How has a fellow deviant impacted your life?
I think it's just the community as a whole, the way dA is a place for miscreants of all kinds to come together and celebrate what is a part of us, what causes us to feel great emotions, our expression.
What are your preferred tools to create art?
Paint Tool SAI, Photoshop, and good old pencil and paper. (Also a bit of a gouache fan, and watercolour.)
What is the most inspirational place for you to create art?
Wow, serious question, as in seriously hard to answer...personally I have to say YouTube, Instagram and Deviantart, I know they aren't really places as such however I find the most inspiration n these 'places' and always create my best work after connecting to the artworks, tutorials, speed-pants and so on that I view here.
What is your favourite DeviantArt memory?
I think being a part of the new logo change, viewing the switch and being involved in it. Also all the awesome comments and conversations with other artists is an unbeatable experience!

Over and out all! ^.^
